I'm not being snide: I think they'd work fine in fantasy.

I missed that post. But I have already wondered who wants to buy MARS figures...
OK I am a collector and have a great amount of boxes. And I also love Strelets figures. And when they have been painted... But MARS...?

Well, their Thirty Years War stuff looks okay when painted. If there was any other option, I would most probably go with that. But sadly there aren't many options for TYW players modelwise. And some of their minis look actually good, like the Polish artillery. Their ancients are crap tho. Sadly their infantry sets usually have too much specialists and command, thus it's not always the best.

But...I wouldn't rule them out. Hopefully sculpting will improve over time, and we'll see some at least average minis, if not better.

Let´s hope so. RedBox has become real good as well. So far you are right!
