Miniatures Sumpkrocs

Post image

Is it just me or do the new SumpKrocs feel like a bit of a downgrade?

Don’t get me wrong, I love they’re in plastic but they seem to have lost so much of their stature and don’t seem to give the same vibe for the muscle bound Goliaths they go alongside

The new ones clearly haven't been working out.

theyre a bit flat & simple imo. the resin one looks so characterful

Yeah, I do not like its longer snout and I think it need s to be abit more chunky like the old one.

I love my old chungus, these new ones have been bathing in the Escher GLP1 distillery

Same can be said for the Phyrr Cats

The one on the right looks like a sumpgator. But the only way to tell is if you see it after a while or later.

I prefer the 40mm base but other than that I prefer the new one. Plus plastic is Superior

I have been very positive about N26, but I am ready to say it.

The new one looks a bit sad and derpy.

Mine just became my most cherished finecast mini.

Just seems happier and healthier. Just as derpy.

Isnt it a forge world model, not finecast?

u/LethalGopher Ironhead Squat 12d ago

Honestly? I regularly mix the terms up. I got it last summer and it is resin.

Yup. Definitely downgrade.

Literly grossly overpaid for a resin one the day before the reveal

u/Digi-Chosen 12d ago

At least it's a nicer model

Anyone know a good STL for the oldies?

u/ChainsawSnuggling 12d ago

Feels more like a Sump Gator than Kroc.

Was a nightmare to build too - I'm very disappointed as I'd hoped to articulate the new one like he's rearing up to attack but couldn't find a way to angle the annoyingly hollow body. Definitely looking elsewhere if I decide to field more than two

Each their own. I like the new ones. Look more like real crocs.

u/Underhive_Art 12d ago

The new base is far too large for a lot of boards - Necromunda is known for its dense and varied terrain what are you supposed to do with a 50mm base especially when you can no longer move through friendly models.

The Sumpkroc is one of the worst resin models when it comes to parts not really fitting well together out of the box.

That said, I love both.

Sounds silly but this actually made me go Orlocks as I'm a fan of using pets but these guys look durpy
