I went down to my local hobby store and picked up a box of Samurai Warriors, you get 25 samurai's in the box on 5 sprues and one sprue with square 25mm bases.
Details
They have allot of details on them which is great, but they are sculpted very shallow so to speak. Why is that bad? Well if you mess up with priming and get a thick layer on them you will loose the details, same goes with for painting them, but removing paint from a plastic miniatures is easier then removing primer. So dilute your paints when painting these miniatures.
Options
In the box you get the enough options to get some diversity to your miniatures to cover sword (katana and wakizashi) or spear (yari) equipped samurai's. You get 5 identical sprues (below) with samurai's in the box.
Assembly
I only have assembled a few of them and they are easy to assemble well enough, even though you don't get any instructions with pictures etc.. There is a text on the side on the box that tells you what you should use and there is a few pictures on some assembled samurai's so you can look at if you feel the need for some guidance.
The bits can be a bit fiddly if your used to 40k or similar miniatures, have you assembled some Warlord plastic miniatures for Bolt Action you will know how to handle this kit. When I had to use some liquid green stuff on some joints, but most of the places I could have fixed when I was glueing them together.
I didn't use the square base that comes with the box, instead I use a 25mm base from Renedra.
Thoughts
To sum up my thoughts, it's a good box/kit of miniatures for what you pay for it. They are not made for skirmish game but for large army games such as Kings of War, so they have static poses due to the square bases and rank system that goes with that kind games. That is the "biggest" limitation for this kit if to be used in skirmish games.
If you want more "character" in your miniatures, get another kit or miniatures, but if you don't mind it, get this box. As a final word I will get the Ashigaru box from Wargames Factory.
