The set's real selling point is the sheet of brass etched jungle foliage. The single sheet contains 16 large palm leaves, 7 large fern like branches, 13 small ferns, 5 leafy vines and 14 thorny vines. These are all nicely detailed, but for the cost of the set it would have been nice to get two sheets considering the rest of the kit isn't terribly impressive.
Which lead us to the low point of this review. There are two bags of different sized gravel in the set. While convenient, you can scrounge up free rocks just about anywhere. Insert your own McKayla Maroney is not impressed meme here.
Next there are two bags of resin pieces. Most of the sculpts have been reused from other GW sets. Many of the smaller pieces consist of skulls, spiders and small leaves. There are three pieces that incorporate the Venus fly trap plant from the Catachan heavy weapon team. Additionally, some pieces include battlefield debris such as a las-gun and a musket. The set includes three square pieces for fantasy bases which use various bits from the stegadon kit.
Four large resin pieces are included for bigger bases. These include a large log with a skeleton wrapped in spider webs, two pieces of Lizardmen ruins and a boring 40mm round base with a fly trap plant and Space Marine helmet.
The resin pieces are convenient, but are likely not going to be worth the purchase if your bits box is decently stocked. Conversely, if you're looking to deck out an entire army with temple themed bases, this kit won't have enough supplies for your project. The flat bottom of some of the resin pieces are rather thick, which means you'll have to put in a bit of work to get the piece to blend into the base your working with. These criticisms aside, the quality of the resin casts are excellent. The details are crisp and there was not a single poorly cast piece in my set.
Outside of the brass etched foliage, this kit is nice, but hard to justify the $33 price (which is why I bought mine for $24.50 - thanks FLGS Black Friday sale!). If you're really desperate to get the foliage, the kit might be worth it to you. I have not been able to find another good set, aside from a store in England and I'm loathe to order things internationally. Overall, you should be able to get some mileage out of the kit to spruce up the center piece models in your army - characters, monsters, elite units and the like. If that's your goal, then I'd recommend the set.
Great review. Thanks for posting it.

I've just nominated your blog for a Liebster Blog Award. I always enjoy reading your posts and this award is very well deserved.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the review. I'd like to see what you make of the Ice/Snow set as that one seems to have gathered the most interest, at least in my local area anyway, but its nice to see you get in a set: never enough.
ReplyDeleteThanks very much guys. The award is much appreciated, Lee!
ReplyDeleteAs for the ice/snow kit, I think you might be able to get more mileage out of it than the jungle kit. I didn't actually look at the thing when I was at the store, but it looks like you get a decent amount of the ice crystals in the set - which seem to me like they'd be the selling point of the kit. The slate, snow and grass tufts can be acquired through other channels, so no big hoot there. Still, it'd probably take at least two kits to deck out a fair sized army.
You should go to the gaming convention with me so you can meet your minions. Plus you can promote the blog to new readers. This way you will win more awards!

ReplyDeleteThere is as yet a rundown of all California regions in the District drop-down box.
An admonition will appear at the highest point of the page in the event that you pick a town other than C-IV. What committed the error? You picked the right district, yet it's anything but a C-IV region, isn't that so? c4yourself login riverside county
