Catching up in December

A bit of time without a post, just a bit to catch up on what we've been doing.

I should start off by mentioning that the 20% off sale on Tiger, Trent, and Hydra is continuing until the 1st of January so please indulge.

We've started carrying Wargames Factory plastics and are eyeing Dreamforge Games's sci-fi plastics for early next year since WF will be distributing for them. In addition we are carrying Oddzial Osmy's 15mm sci-fi figures and the 3mm ACW and Napoleonic lines thanks to Pico Armor (their American distributors) being really nice to work with. Also new are additional codes for Ainsty Casting scenic resin bits with cemetery bits, statuary, and the start of their dungeon codes.

Plus I'll be catching up on new releases from Hydra, Tiger, and getting our stock of Acheson Creations resin scenery online most likely after the holidays. And remember, if any of these companies have something you want that we don't have online just ask us, we don't mind special orders at all.

Mostly my time at work has been taken up painting terrain and figures for sale. We've mostly got Rebel Minis 15mm modern stuff, and a bunch of Acheson and Ainsty bits and pieces put up with more coming.


Including worms; these have been pretty popular at shows. We'll be adding these unpainted in the future, but for now we've got a few painted up with this guy as the prototype.

Anyway, thanks for a good year and have a happy holiday.

November Sale and Fall-In News

Sorry to anyone put out, but we will not be attending Fall-In this year due to fall out from Hurricane Sandy.  However we have decided to open up the discount we were intending to have at the show to our online customers and potential customers. (hint, hint)

We're making all of our Tiger Miniatures, Trent Miniatures, and Hydra Miniatures 20% off through the end of November with a flat shipping rate of $5.00 in the United States. Tiger's Landsknechts and Dutch Colonials are 30%, and we have other sales going including a closeout on remaining Ramshackle Games things and Secret Weapon paints. Check it out.

So please stock up and help us get in new stuff and have new sculpts made. It's unlikely we're going to have a sale like this again anytime soon.

Later.

Afghan Regular Army Commission

So this is what I did for most of September:

It's an army of Tiger's Afghan regulars with some Pathan tribesmen backup.


Total: Two units of twelve cavalry, six units of twenty five regular infantry,
four mounted officers, and four units of twenty tribesmen. 


I might put up more pics later, but these were my favorites of the ones I took.
As always, let me know what you think. Tomorrow some con pics.

Final Hydra Preview

Robot Queen Mechanika 

Space Pirate Class Three


Just a little longer now, have a good weekend.

7/27/12

Hydra Preview: War Rocket Space Pirate Class 4

I wanted to get both of these new Pirate classes done by today, but it wasn't to be. However this one is pretty neat, and at about 95mm I think it might be longest ship in the game so far.

The rules for pirate fleets have magically appeared on Hydra's website when I wasn't looking. They look good and even allow pirate fleets to be entirely composed of models from other factions!



Oh, and the projected release date for all this stuff seems to be early next week if everything goes well.

7/26/12

Robot Legion Preview

Today is Hydra's Optio, a frontline command model for the Robot Legion. He'll be available as a single as well as part of a new command squad pack including him, three random Legionnaires, and a heavy support Legionnaire.


Tomorrow... maybe some pirates?

7/25/12

Hydra Preview

As some of you might know Hydra Miniatures is having a big release pretty soon. I can't say exactly when but I can show you a few things. Today is Primal Dawn's Ugg Spearmen, this is an old pack that has made a three pack with two new poses.



I'm trying to get everything new painted for the release. Tomorrow should be some Robot Legion.

Let me know what you think.

7/24/12
