Banzei! Banzei! Banzei!

Was worried it was going to go the way of Venexia's 28mm Condottieri range...

All the best for the new management.

These are magnificent miniatures that I hope will be available for a long time to come.

Here's hoping he realises that by reducing the prices to a realistic level he will sell lots more figures.

I don't see what's unrealistic about them. Full metal miniatures from a small one man operation, prices are right in line with similar companies.

£8.00 for a mounted figure is realistic?  Both his nearest competitors charge half that price.

I live in a city with a couple of one man operations producing figures in a range of periods at less than half his prices.  Its the old biro problem again.  Make it expensive and you won't sell many, thus substantiating (dialectically almost) your high prices.  Sell more cheaply and you will sell a lot more.  The lower profit margin will be more than compensated for by the greater sales

Many thanks for all the words of support - currently sorting out a new website and we should have some new figures available next month, if everything goes to plan.
Regards, Simon.

I guess Congratulations are in order.

Congrats on the combination!

Will the Swiss figures shown here ... https://je-lay-emprins.blogspot.co.uk/2017/09/swiss-castings-for-sale.html ... be available through the new website, or can they still be ordered as described on that page?

Thanks for the enquiry. If you'd like to order any of the Swiss you can do this as per the blog please. No immediate plans to add them to the Steel Fist catalogue just yet.
Regards, Simon.
