    What quality are Games Workshop miniatures?

    They're about the only ones I've ever seen in person (the gamesworkshop ones, Lotr, Warhammer). And I've only seen a few of those. The minis on here look nice but I was wondering how GW compare to the ones on here for sale. Are they better, same, worse? If possible please tell me why so I...
