Pre-view Galore!
Two new plastic Greek sets on the way....

[font=\'Trebuchet MS]Some of you may have seen the cover of the Classical Greek hoplite box, but none of you will have seen the cover for the Spartan box....[/font]


These plastic kits are going to be modifications on the current plastic hoplites. Replacing the command frame will be a new frame containing new bodies, and lots of new heads allowing you to represent the hoplites that fought from the Peloponnesian war until the death of Alexander (and after!). I\'m expecting the new frame very soon, until then you can read a bit more about it here:

[font=\'Trebuchet MS]Plastic Persian pre-view
I[/font]ve been very quiet about these because they now look quite different to the image I shown a few months ago. Basically, a lot of new information has come to my attention regarding the appearance of the Persian army from this period. As I am aware there are rival companies working on Persian figures, so I cannot show too much right now (it has taken 2 years of research, building relationships with archaeologists and a trip to Iran to get to this point).

Before the end of the year, the whole Persian range will be updated to bring it up to date with the new evidence. I can say with quite some confidence that they will be the only historically accurate Achaemenid Persian miniatures on the market.
For now, here are a couple of pre-views....


Nimrud Ivories appeal..
The British museum is trying to raise the funds to buy the Nimrud Ivories. You can read all about it here:

To do my bit, I am donating all profits generated from my Assyrian and Babylonian ranges until the 18th of September to this appeal.

A bit of a delay and a positive note...
I have spent the last week streamlining my business to try and get orders shipped quicker. I have now got to the point in business where I am able to afford to have someone help with the processing and dispatch of orders, which is great! This has put a slight very short term delay on orders, but all will be sorted by the middle of next week.

Until next time...

Wenn die Figuren so gut werden wie das Artwork muss ich sie wohl kaufen.

Nachdem ich Lameth\'s kretische BogenschĂŒtzen gesehen habe, bin ich bei Immortal gaaaanz vorsichtig.

Lothar, verstehe deine Skepsis aufgrund der Fotos. Nach persönlicher Ansicht gebe ich zu, dass mich einige von Immortals Metallmodellen auch nicht sonderlich ĂŒberzeugen. Die Plastikhopliten aber finde ich spitze. Scheint der seltene Fall zu sein, dass die Plastics deutlich besser sind als die begleitenden Zinnfiguren. Wenn es in Ă€hnlicher QualitĂ€t weitergeht, sind die Boxen fĂŒr mich gebucht.

Da kann man ja nur hoffen, das es in guter QualitÀt weiter geht.
