I'd originally picked up a Warmachine piece in the consignment case of  my FLGS just because I thought it was a cool model.  Turned out there  were three in the box I bought, 2 heavies and a warcaster.  Took them  home, downloaded the freebie quickstart rules and figured it looked like  a good game.  My kids also took a look and were interested so I got  them a couple of the starter battle boxes for christmas and a couple of  mercenary solos myself.  These are all assembled, and in various stages  of being painted, but the first 5 are finished.  
Got to say they are very nice models. The warjacks are decent, but the characters are well above average. Better casting quality than what I'm used to from the GW metals. I picked up some Secret Weapon bases and the snow kit for these guys. All comes together really well.
