steffen1988:
Ihr hört Richtig. Gripping Beast, bekannt für ihre Miniaturen der Spätantike und des Frühmittelalters bzw "Dark Age" schließen nach 30 Jahren die Pforten, aus Altergründen.

emigholz:
Sehr Schade, die hatten ein wirklich großes Sortiment mit vielen Epochen und gehörten mit zu den großen. Kommt schon sehr plötzlich. Ob jemand das Sortiment übernimmt bleibt abzuwwarten bei der vielen Konkurrenz in einem kleiner werdenden Markt.

Koppi (thrifles):
Hat mich echt traurig zurückgelassen.
Hier meine Gedanken dazu.

SiamTiger:
Ich könnte mir vorstellen, dass da Zinnsachen z.B. bei Footsore oder Northstar landen, und Plastik von einem der "Großen" übernommen wird, ist schließlich ein großes Sortiment. Warlord vertreibt es jetzt schon und hätte auch die Infrastruktur daraus in Zukunft was zu machen.

Dekto:
Update von GB.

--- Zitat --- Hi all. Firstly thank you so much for all of the comments on our last post - we would love to respond to them all personally but there's so many so just know that we truly appreciate all the kind words and well wishes.

We're going to try to address some of the questions we saw pop up a lot over the weekend here.

1) How long have I got left to buy? - Months rather than weeks but we really can't say for certain and don't want to make promises we can't keep. Bare in mind the retirement is largely due to  ongoing health issues and health can be very unpredictable.

2) What's happening to the ranges you produce but that aren't yours? - The Ragnarok historical range will return to Colin Patten and he is currently making his own website for them. The Ragnarok Fantasy range as well as Shieldwall Miniatures will return to Shieldwall Miniatures. We will provide information on any plans to do with those ranges when we get any. Calpe Miniatures range will return to Peter Fitzgerald and again we will update you on that when he has information to share.

3) How does this affect SAGA? - SAGA is not affected by any of this. North Star Military Figures have taken on SAGA distribution already, Studio Tomahawk make and produce this game still and will continue to do so.

4) What about Zero Hour and Ecorcheurs? - Dave and Rob will surely have their own plans for these rulesets. We'll let you know as soon as we find out.

5) Are you still going to Partizan II & Warfare? - Yes! See you there!

6) Will there be a buyer? - We very much hope so.  If you sent us a message enquiring for more information about this, please note we are not ignoring you, we just need some time to get all our information together.

It's hard to think of all questions that might need answering so feel free to drop them below and we will keep you updated along the way.

Ja, leider sehr schade das sie schließen.
Viele meiner Saga Miniaturen sind von GB.
