Serious question, only after I assembled them did I realize just how small minis are, they always make them look a lot bigger in videos, without the sword the Emperor's Champion is shorter than my pinky!

They're actually meant to be much smaller, but GW found they're more marketable this way.
>>
>>97749388
Maybe some joy-toy action figures are more to your taste?

also >>97749395

Small(er) miniatures allow more of them on the table, without overcrowding it, resulting in better gameplay.

>>97749402
Oh no I don't mind, its just kind of funny how tiny they are, makes it more impressive how much detail a lot of artists can put on them.
>>
>>97749388
No, they're meant to be bigger. You just assembled them wrong, buddy. baka.

>>97749388
Anons are reacting like catty teenage girls to this because of course they are, but yeah they're that small. Surprised the hell out of me too the first time I walked into a gamestore.

Nigger he assembled something he KNOWS is called a "mini" and is surprised that it's small. He's gotten off lucky honestly, any other board wouldve memed this to 200 posts by now.

>minis are small
Yeah, they aren't called "huges".
>>
>>97749587
I kind of expected them to be about as tall as a Hot Wheels in length.

>>97749701
There are "huges" though.

>>97749388
Maybe you're just that much of a Chad your pinky finger is above average.
>>
>>97749714
That's close to normal Army Man size, so it's not strange. But as the other anon said the game benefits from them being smaller because that effectively gives more table space for the actual game.

>miniatures are small
weird

If you dare step out from the warm fuzzy purgatory of GW, you could play something in a larger scale. Conquest is openly 38mm scale to GW's heroic 28/32. If you want to go straight off the deep end into shit most other wargamers have never even heard of, you can look into 54mm games. They are out there, and their models are huge. Players might all be crusty old historical grogs though.

No anon your minis were shrunk by malicious leprechaun.

>>97750980
Guess OP needs to find a benign leprechaun to make them into megas.

>>97750197
At least he didn't say "wumboes".
