Guys,

A few months ago I posted that TGM Naps were great but larger than K&C naps. Too much larger for mixing. But that was OK becuase I don't collect K&C naps and was considering starting to really collect the TGM releases (I have 4 of the first French releases). But now I am screwed because I WAS RIGHT. Some on the forum said oh they still work together, there not that much bigger. Well looks like TGM realized the significant difference because these new releases are scaled down to match K&C. If I want to add these now I would have 2 different scales. I assume the whole rest of the series will be in this new size SO I AM STUCK WITH 4 FIGURES THAT WILL NOT MATCH THE REST OF THE RANGE. MAYBE TGM WOULD BUY THEM BACK FROM ME.

Anyone else feel a little dumped on?

How much bigger are they? surely, they are compatible and can be used. I don't like Nap figures myself as I find them boring but, I am sure they can be used as a little interest to a dio or line as all figures are not the same height anyway. Perhaps some pictures to show this ''difference'' Dumped upon is not really a word I would have used but, I would like to see them as I have a friend who has thousands of Nap figures and has bought all to date including many multiples and has not mentioned it. I will have to see his collection of TG when I get home from a break.

Its only 4 figures so just stand them on the low ground.

Guys,

It is not just height. It is the heft of the figures, the hats, weapons, kit .THEY ARE OF DIFFERENT SCALE. Someone a while back put some photos of K&C naps vs. the early TGM'S on a previous thread. The difference is obvious. I think I started the thread and the reason was NOT to complain about the TGM naps but just to give a heads up to the rest of you that they do not match up with K&C. why couldn't TGM just leave them alone? Have figures of a unique scale, call it 1/29.

ALL I ASK IS FOR FIGURES OF THE SAME RANGE FROM THE SAME COMPANY MATCH UP. IS THAT TOO MUCH?
