Can anyone speak for the quality of the miniatures, break easy, hold paint well, bend easily, melt if you chew on them?

This is the forum for the Anima card game...you might have better luck addressing your question in the Anima miniature forum.

There are "official" pictures of just about all the minis painted up, along with their concept art. Pretty awesome stuff.
