I agree, I want an Amazon team that are dressed ready to take on a team of Orcs on the field of play, it's not too much to ask..

The opposite side of the argument is that Norse teams pick out their furriest underpants grab their pillaging helmet and they are ready to play. So, I guess that's why these woman have just left the jungle and play the game in whatever they're wearing. But like others have said, the current options for Amazon teams leave me a little cold.

If the TGG did a fantasy football team they would sell a stack but I guess that's a longshot.

If only J_Bone industries would free us from our slutty 'Zon hell! :wink:

I bought the Black Scorpion 'zons, I have a similar problem with some of the more sexualized teams out there. I'm looking for athletes, not strippers.

I'll post pictures when they're painted, but they have a fun Valkyrie-like look.
My rule of thumb is, am I comfortable showing the models to my wife? To my mom? To my niece?

Edit: Added a picture:

This is still my favourite Amazon team. Some repeated positions but easy to tell apart positionals and no silly poses. (and the price is great!)

You can always paint clothes on if you find them too naked. That can make a big difference.

Perhaps you need to pick and choose from different teams. It will be more pricey but you might get something closer to your final vision. I am doing that with a human team (I agree with you that there are none that fit my taste as a whole unit).

Cloaks and hugely winged helmets? :-?
I'm not into the Valkyrie-theme, really.

What company are those from? Never seen 'em or can't remember.

At first glance I was interested, really.
But somehow the helmets and cone-boobs annoy more and more the longer I look at them.

Yep.

You have already said you don't like them but it is amazing what a good paint job can do :)

They look so incredibly different on the Impact! website.
Yeah, the paintjob is half the mini. To bad I'm not a good painter! :(
