    Yep. I opened up all of the boxes last night and no temple. Oh well.

    There are a ton of models to put together here, but I got started on the 16 Cold One Riders last night though. Hopefully, I'll make some good progress over this weekend!

    Where on earth did you find all those fantasy Lizard boxes, especially so long after AoS dawned? Would love to know!

    Why sell them in the first place? I’d keep them! Valuable reinforcements!

    I found the lot on eBay and bought it for $230. I'll need to make back what I spent on them and I could really use the added income. Quadruplets don't come cheap!

    Well, I started breaking into these boxes over the weekend and putting many of the models together. So far, I have 16 Cold One Mounts assembled along with the 10 Temple Guard. I also primed both and started painting the 5 Cold One Riders that I had not previously painted (the ones with spears). I have to admit, I LOVE seeing so many COR on the table all at once! Looks so cool, and sooooo tempting........ They may just all have to go on square bases! Definitely keeping the TG though. That gives me 30.

    I also managed to get some more work done on the Bastiladon's Solar Engine. It's pretty much complete now. I just need to finish the 3 riders and it's base. The Stegadon's throne is much more slow-going because there are SO MANY tiny details to pick out on it. I really want to do a good job on it.

    Critiques more than welcome.

    Thanks! Yeah, this big guy will be going up on eBay soon. Bid on him and maybe you can add him to your collection!

    Lol, yeah, I just got these 16 (30 total), and then noticed where Lost Kingdom Miniatures is coming out with a new Lizardmen line, and they look incredible! I just might have to systematically go about replacing all of these units! Lol!

    I think the saurus and saurus cav look really great. The Razordon is the worst of the bunch in my opinion. Not sure about the Ninja Turtle Kroxigor, I'd have to see more pictures of those.

    Personally, I like the Salamander the least. I think it's the throne he's standing on that I don't care for. That alone would make the model hard to customize.

    I kinda actually like the Razordon. He'd look much better than my current GW ones at least. I also think he'd look good next to all of the other L-men monsters.

    My favorite (so far) is probably the Temple Guard. In particular, the Champion with the snake. Snakes have got to be my biggest fear and really creep me out! So this guy just looks super-nasty to me! I'll probably definitely be getting some of those. I dub my (future) Temple Guard champ, Jake the Snake!

    I really don't like th Sally either. The tail and preposed model don' do it for me. I really like the Razordon and the Turtles. I like the idea of expanding upon the different types of reptiles. I'm not how in the line with the fluff it is, but I love it.

    IMO they went a little overboard/heavy on the headdresses. Although I love the Knight's headdress. Looks awesome.

    Well, these models ARE made with 9th age in mind (although I still play 8th edition) and some modifications would need to be made for AoS players (mostly round bases). But, hey, that's what us 8th players have to do now with AoS models! :p

    Do you know if they are releasing Chameleon skink models? I saw previews for some amazing Cham Skinks models and I think it was Lost Kingdom. I didn't see it on their FB page.
