Mantic's Ratkin Nightmares are an awesome kit. Huge, biomechanically enhanced monster rats with heavy drilling weaponry or chemical throwers? Awesome.

The Nightmares go together easily and have a few choices of heads to give them a bit of variety on the table, beyond their weapon loadouts. They're a cool choice of miniatures if you're looking for something to bulk out a warband or have a full unit stomping around a battlefield - no matter what shape base you put them on!

I didn't sign any contractually binding agreements with Mantic to take a peek at these guys, either, so if they weren't up to scratch you'd hear about it. ;D
