    I've found a couple of armies for me which is mostly fine in weapon scale.
    Shasssvasssti and OSSSsss. Both of them are same size of regular infantry.
    Some difference between units I can handle.

    Good. Problem of perfectionism is not solved, but I've found an options for myself.
    I guess, I would stop on OSSS. Robots need my love.

    Glad you found a range that matches your predilection! It’s funny, we all have our preferences, and things that donor don’t bother me. For me, it’s the lack of hips in new Haqqislam models - :)

    It’s interesting the note about proportion to figure rather than range. I had never thought of it that way. One thing it does is somewhat future proof models in a way - if future weapons change it won’t be glaring.

    but honestly, I have to nitpick with infinity these days - otherwise I’d have to collect all the ranges! It was easier back at start of N2 when I could just pick the factionni liked best

    Just stay with robots and never compare Yadu male vs female sculpts.

    The older minis also had the same problem - male miniatures don't have hips. And it's supposed to be an aesthetic decision to make female and male models more recognizable. Still I don't like it.
    Just like the different size of weapons.

    Makes sense I suppose. I don’t notice it outside of Haqq and USAriadna. I had assumed it was same sculptor, but would make more sense if it was a design choice.
    Again, happy to have something to limit my collection!

    Are they collectively the "Carlii"? Is Gutier truly "the one"?
