Post subject:  wood elf - hermaphrodites?

Guys,
I have recently started painting up some Wood Elves. Started with the boxed set of plastics, and now have done the command pack (captain and banners), and started work on some sentinels to support them.
Now i have noticed that the same core frame appears to have been used for the banner bearer and a couple of the sentinels. That not a problem.
The problem is the figures appear to have boobs! Yet do not otherwise appear female, other than sharp slim elven features... anyone else noticed this, or do my eyes deceive me?

Scott

No - your eyes do n ot decieve you, we have had this converstaion once or twice before.

Don't think there's any answer either!!!

I can't say that I've noticed this with the figures and will have to check it out - Can you paint them as females ie does the face and hair make these figures fit ?

The figures don't particularly appear female in pose, features, equipment or clothing (long flowing robes are pretty much eleven - male or female).
Just the damn bust, I mean why???
The daft thing is I didn't really notice it until I painted them, with shading and highlights, and then they just stuck out like, well, boobs!
Had I notice earlier I may have tried to file them down, but it would have been awkward to get the file to them.

Oh well...
