Basically, the minis are as nice in the flesh (or rather bare metal) as they look on the website. With free P&P they work out to a little under $3 a model which is excellent value. They had very little flash - about 5 models out of about 30 even needed any 'surgery' and it was very minor at that.
There was an interesting mix of models - female gunslingers, townfolk, lawmen and bandits. There was a good range of poses and whilst they were not as dynamic as Malifaux there was a good range. In particular, a fat townsman with a huge bushy beard brought a smile - they definitely have character!
I will post a comparison shot between an unpainted Black Scorpion and a Malifaux figure to give a size comparison soon - they are pretty similar. Since I am unlikely to get them painted in a hurry, I'll link to photos from their official website.

I will be definitely be going back for more townsfolk and Apaches, if I can get interest going with the forces I have.
Here is the Malifaux (Lady Justice) vs Black Scorpion comparison shot:
Balck Scorpion are a little smaller but not 'out of place'
