Wow, fantastic video. Top notch. And you are absolutely right, this set is more detailed and varied than the previous ones. The best set yet. Thanks so much, James!

This is the best kit review I've ever seen.

excellent review

I just picked this up. I think the bodies with the longer coats would make good jedi characters.

GW: we'll give you helmeted and un-helmeted heads and 2 weapon options per model in our 5 or 10 mini box, maybe a commander head if we're feeling generous. NS: here's 20 head options and 20 arm options on a frame that's just 1/4 of the box, go nuts.

@AtticRaidersRetroReviews 8 месяцев назад

Yeah, I love the customisation possibility with these! And they go well with Wargames Atlantic Death Fields and North Star Oathmark stuff too - it was fun putting together a crew of Scavorks for North Stars last painting competition.

An utterly fantastic kit! The quality of the sculpts are really impressive for the price, and the completely insane amount of extra bits you get on each sprue guarantees that you're gonna have plenty of variety in the models you can make from this. The long coats and hoods have made for great Mystic characters, and with bits from the Mercenaries and Troopers kits, i was able to cobble together a Sniper that looks just like a NCR Ranger from Fallout New Vegas!

@AtticRaidersRetroReviews Месяц назад

The amount of spare arms and heads is crazy - I really wish Northstar would bring out sprues of JUST bodies so that we could start using up some of the spares without generating MORE spares.

@crapparc 3 месяца назад

I've built from every single Stargrave kit and I also noticed the increased detail on this kit.

@AtticRaidersRetroReviews Месяц назад

Yes, I have at least one of each Stargrave sprue myself that I've made crew from.

@KaptinKhern 3 месяца назад

I use these as Chaos cultists for my Chaos 40k army. I also run the troopers as traitor guards. They are great quality and they are fairly priced. Great stuff! Nice review.

@timberry4709 10 месяцев назад

As for the backpacks, remember, the Scavengers are out away from their base of operations for extended periods of time and so will be carrying as much of their gear as possible. The "plain" pack in the middle is suitable for crew or civilians who would only be lugging around the bare necessities ("It's heavy!") since they don't plan on being "oot and aboot" for any extended period.

@AtticRaidersRetroReviews 10 месяцев назад

That's true. My point was more that these appear to be an improvement in the level of detail in the actual (digital?) sculpts than the older models.

@ReadySetPainter 10 месяцев назад

The dude in your preview picture. The one on the far right. He's bad ass looking, I love his weapon, too.

@AtticRaidersRetroReviews 10 месяцев назад

Yeah, Scavengers kit seems to have the biggest guns out of all the Stargrave kits.

@timothyyoung2962 9 месяцев назад

I love the Stargrave kits. The Frostgrave kits work will with them. I had extras left over from the crew, mercs, and soldiers box sets for Stargrave as well as some wizard, henchman, gnoll, cultist, and demons from Frostgarve and mixed them up to make some cool aliens, mutants, and human fallowers for The Doomed game and it work fantastic. North Star sets, and Wargames Atlantic sets are really great box sets for the price.

@AtticRaidersRetroReviews 9 месяцев назад

Totally agree - price is good and the parts from different sets all work well interchangeably.

This is THE BEST sprue review I’ve ever seen!! Subscribed. Crossing my fingers that you’ve got videos on historical kits too! Aces to you!!

@AtticRaidersRetroReviews Месяц назад

Sadly no historical kits. Does Frostgrave count?....

@AnthroposGames Месяц назад

Frostgrave reviews would be awesome!! (I’ve already bought all of those, but I’ll still watch and comment!)

@hakbash7588 10 месяцев назад

I have all the other STARGRAVE kits. I will be getting this one as well. Very good kits. Worth every penny for sure. Thanks for the review.

@alessiodecarolis 5 месяцев назад

Another great set , NorthStar just advertised that another Scavengers (2) is on the way, probabilly females. The main problem is that there are too few pouches/magazines and backpacks, perhaps a plastic sprue ONLY with these accessories would be welcome. The backpacks from WGA's Cannon Fodder 1& 2 are compatible with them, and Tamiya 's Ultra Thin cement is perfect for their plastic

@ChaseDaOrk3767 10 месяцев назад

I wonder if those models would be any good to convert into Chaos cultists?

@AtticRaidersRetroReviews 10 месяцев назад

Definitely good for a kitbash - worth checking out the Frostgrave Cultists set if you've not seen them yet.

@ChaseDaOrk3767 10 месяцев назад

@@AtticRaidersRetroReviews I've been wanting to get myself that set aswell

@ricoqwertz123 10 месяцев назад

Yep, the scavengers can be combined very nicely with the Frostgrave Cultists, the cheapest and most unique way to built chaos cultists. But they are not as bulky as gw minis.

Just got a question do they come with bases?

@AtticRaidersRetroReviews Месяц назад

They come with the flat circular bases shown in the video.

@TheLordUrban 8 месяцев назад

Love your presentation style. Unfortunately so many people making videos feel like they have to adopt the mannerisms of a 1970s game show host. Really like your more relaxed conversational approach.

@AtticRaidersRetroReviews 8 месяцев назад

Thanks. I do try to speed my seech up a little to keep audience attention, but I find I trip up over words if I do that too much!

@Gyro_Pretzeli 6 месяцев назад

I am overal kind of sad, that Northstar went the route of extremely chunky 28mm with everything. It literally does not fit with anything, but fireforge historicals. I would have prefered something more modernly proportionate. Height either in line with newer perrys or newer 40k/AOS or inbetween. The former would also have been cool for LOTR. But at least I can use these ones with Lead Adventure Miniatures / Ratnik. So that's good.

@AtticRaidersRetroReviews 6 месяцев назад

Fair view, but personally I really like the simplified, slightly cartoony, aesthetic to the Stargrave minis.
