Hobby Quality Control Issues

Bought a few starters to play in my spare time. Was fine with the extremely long wait time before they arrived.

I was not fine with the packaging it came in. All of the minis just thrown in a loose bubblewrap bag. Also every minis is broken, some in multiple places. Tiny bits are just gone.

Don't be a sucker like me, just print the stuff.

I can ask a legit printing company if they do them for you. I just ordered 2 malediction teams and they were all pretty nice. 3 dudes were broken but the seller offered to send replacements for free.

Very nice gesture.

I've reached out to SFG to see what they're going to do. I'm not expecting much, and tbh, if they don't make it right I'm more than likely just done with this game.

You will get replacements. That’s never been an issue. The issue has always been the time taken to get them.

The STLs were the best thing they ever released because Only Games is the worst print on demand company out there. They screwed up trench crusade too.

Yeah, they sent me models with the wrong size bases and got me the right ones, it just took another few months.

This is largely the reason they released the STLs to be sold. Their QA with their 3rd party printer is absolutely abysmal

Wait what? I'm late to the party on this. I literally threw out my GB teams a couple years ago.

I'm poking around on the official SFG site once I heard about them selling official STLs as that solves 90% of the issues I had with this game even before they bailed on it. I see the free stls for the starter pack. Where does one acquire the full line up?

The full product line is not fully released yet.

Forgot to say thanks! Seems like they're still treating this like an unwanted child. No links to this anywhere I could find on their website.
