I don’t have any of the MoM miniatures, but I have played the game and I’d say these are about the same. I could get a pic of them next to an Imperial Assault mini tomorrow - I imagine they would be about the same scale?

As for location cards, I can do that:

Thanks for posting these, I never knew this service existed. How do they compare in size to the miniatures from Mansions of Madness 2nd ed? especially the newer ones from the expansions?

As I said above, I don’t have Mansions of Madness, but here they are side by side with Imperial Assault minis:

Thanks for the reply Srba. Those look close enough in size that I'm going to order a couple for a trial. I'll post up when they arrive along with some of the Mansions of Madness figures. 👍

Just happened to have finsihed my Diana. Can’t get HF links to work on mobile, but if you can’t work out what I did from the image, I can upload the link later.

Hi Srba

I would love to get some links to your HF designs.

Thanks Steve.

Nice job on Diana and Wendy!

I'm running through Dunwich with Ashcan and Zoey right now. I keep thinking about how nice it would be to have minis instead of the cards. I'm going to bite the bullet and get a couple I think.

Thanks so much!

Its been fun playing with the designs, i added baseball bat to Wendy as I use it a lot!

Any chance i get grab some other links like Jenny, Roland & Agnes? Thanks!

So I’ve only ordered and painted the Roland, Jim, and Yorrick, (not as good of painter as thread originator so I’ll keep the pics to myself) but I’ve spent a fair amount of time designing all the LCG investigators plus some others. Some are better then others (Ursula and Joe might be my favorite) and some (ashcan, Wendy) I just don’t like much at all. Here are my links for anyone interested...

First off, these are brilliant. I particuarly like that I can download the .stl files and import to blender and further modify the poses to my tastes and assign material slots to put some textures on in Unity.

I do think you should increase their height though, otherwise they look a little dumpy. Pics speak for themselves. The height for males is 9 and females 8.

I love the Heroforge minis. I also started augmenting the STL files before resin printing. Such as a cross in one of Zoey's hands...actually give Ashcan a real guitar instead of a ukelele... giving Marie a retro microphone on a stand...and Jim Culver a trumpet. But I have to disagree on height. As 30mm mini, they actually come out proportional. Increasing them to 8 or 9 is your choice. But they are now stylized and not proportional in size.

Posted at 2019-03-10 08:21:25+00:00

It's Hero proportions. This is a common thing in fantasy art and comic books. To each his own though.

Having minis definitely help up the table presence of the game. I like anything that stops the game from just looking like piles of cards and tokens everywhere. At even the $15 price tag these HF sculpts are pricey to collect though not unreasonable for miniatures to be honest. Also they look great.

I already have an entire Mansions Of Madness collection otherwise I would considering picking up some HF stuff for the game. I like the MoM 2nd system fine and I also use the minis and tiles for CoC RPG sessions. So I'm definitely getting my use out of them. The MoM minis that they updated for 2nd edition like Finn, Marie, Agnes, Wendy, Jim, Silas, Diana, Tommy, Lily, Wilson, Akachi and Charlie are all fantastic. Unfortunately many of the earlier 2nd ed releases were just the legacy sculpts which were not great. They are serviceable, but it's a pain to paint them such that they look good. That's a real missed opportunity to update the whole line. Also for completionists MoM still doesn't have all the current LCG investigators released. No Mark, Leo, Rex, Ursula, Norman, Daisy, Lola, Sefina, Zoey, Skids, Roland, Yithians or Calvin. Also while it's cheaper per model to get MoM stuff than HF stuff you are getting a bunch of stuff you won't really use in the LCG so I can't recommend it unless you plan on actually playing MoM or using those other components for RPGs or something else.

I don't recommend hunting down the legacy FFG prepaints at this point since they are unlikely to come back into print, are of lesser quality than the newer sculpts FFG are releasing, have mediocre to bad paint jobs, and are ridiculously overcosted by speculators since they are currently OOP(they use to be just a couple bucks each which was very reasonable for a prepaint). You are better off getting these HFs at that point or some of the CoC stuff RAFM put out.

Ha! I never considered getting a few Yithian figs; we just used the regular ones for the transformed investigators. But now I'm off to shop 'em.

Nice to see more people are getting involved. Personally, I think those scaled-up ones look like their heads are too small.

Anyway, since this thread has come to life a bit, I thought I'd share a family photo of all my minis so far:

Bringing up to date Mark Harrigan and Diana Stanley from The Feeders from Within.. Pic quality isn't great, but I'm charging my camera atm, this was taken with my phone
