They were reasonably priced, very painted much like my existing units of Uruk Hai, and just enough for one more Dragon Rampant unit to round off Saruman's army. The paint jobs, shown more clearly below, looked like they would need minimal retouching to blend in.
When they arrived, I realised it might take a bit more work, as the hair was dry-bushed metal like the armour. Nonetheless, I got stuck in and shortened those, ridiculous in my eyes, can-openers on sticks, and stripped the flock off the bases. And this is as far as I've got so far.
To be honest the textured bases were nicely done but would not blend in with all my other units so I will give then my standard plain sand textured basing.
As I was writing this post the Fernando figures arrived, a good 24 hours before they were expected at the earliest - I haven't unpacked them all yet. Hopefully this won't stop me completing these Uruks fairly soon ... I hope.
