(I don't like to use the News function in this board system,as it doesn't allow replies, and I like to hear your comments, so... this is where I'm going to stick this, for now.)
Imminent
Champions of History, Wave 2 -
Mata Hari, Julian the Apostate, John Dillinger.
Caster informs me the mold will be spun on Monday (January 25). Should be in the shop by the end of the week.
February
a ) EW03 Romfell Armored Car -
Caster has the model in hand, and is beginning on the mold design. Should be available second or third week of February.
b ) Shanghai, 1930: Japanese Soldiers in M1930 Uniforms, Pack #1 -
Consists of three soldiers with Arisaka rifles in cherry blossom helmets with optional gas mask heads. On the way to me from the sculptor. Should be at the caster within the next one to two weeks. Available February. Sold as a pack of three.
c) Shanghai, 1930: Japanese NCO -
Will be available around the same time as the soldiers. Similarly equipped, armed with a Nambu pistol. Also has options for use with or without gasmasks.
c) Shanghai, 1930: Characters -
Will include FC Julian, Kawashima Yoshiko, Colonel Washiji Toro, and The Great Adamski.
Two of the three models are in hand (Julian and Adamski). Yoshiko and Toro are in the parcel with the Japanese troops mentioned above, so should be with us relatively soon. I expect this pack out around the same time.
d) Shanghai, 1930: Minions for Fu'Xian -
These were done by Curtis Fell and are his nicest pieces done for me, to date. You will, I suspect, really like these guys. I don't mean to be obtuse, but I'm waiting for them to be cast so that I can take a decent picture, at which point I'll spill the beans. However, think pulp supernatural mixed with archaeology, and you might get close. (Feel free to guess here.;) )
Late February/Early March
EW04 - DaVinci's Tank
28mm scale reconstruction of DaVinci's most practical armored vehicle design. Not sure on a price yet. Expecting delivery soon, but the caster takes a while with vehicles, so I don't want to get your hopes up by promising it too early.
On Track for "Soonish"
a) 15mm WW2 Norwegians. Part of our new 15MM range. These are size compatible with Battlefront. Will consist initially of infantry in standard uniforms with officers, ncos, rifles, LMGS, HMG teams, and artillery support. Other support is also planned. Will probably sell these in packs, but also as "platoon" and "company deals". Still working out the details. Sculptor is busily working away at these.
b) New sculpts for the Shanghai Municipal Police, by Brian Cooke, who did the work on The Great Adamski.
Some "wants" in all parts of that release schedule (except maybe the "soonish"). The only question will be: will I be able to wait until they are all released for a combined order?
One of the few Russian designs to actually see service during the First World War. Used during WW1, and again during the Russian Civil War. Remained in Red Army inventory until the late 1920s.
This has been sculpted up by my good friend Mancha. It is en route to me at the moment.
Will probably run between 20-25 US depending upon the cost of casting.
And WK... I'm glad you like. To tempt you a bit more, our shipping rates are much less than they were when you first ordered back in August.
Sorry, S., I do apologize. Have sorted things, though. See the new release announcement in the news announcements above, and -feel free- to comment, etc. here.
