I came across some of their British Airborne figs on a Bring & Buy, the PIAT teams, and they are gorgeous. I wish I could put together a whole platoon.

If they are ever back on sale, I hope someone sends me a PM.

It would be good to have their ranges back into production... any news on that?  :?

Yes! I have been waiting for years now to buy more of their excellent minis - does anyone have any news?

I've sent several emails and not received a reply.  I'm assuming their business email address is not one that they check with any regularity if at all.

To be honest that was a problem when they were still in business!!
As much as I would like to be able to buy their figures again, I feel some of the moulds for their ECW figures should be remade/remastered or whatever you have to do to them when they are past their best?

I'm sure it's incredibly frustrating if you need more figures to build up units. I'm also interested in model railways and there was a manufacturer which started up in the mid-1990s but was only around for a couple of years before stopping. I bought some of its kits but not enough - I had other commitments at the time such as getting married, buying a house etc.. Now, I search Ebay every week to see if someone is selling its products and, when they do come up, which is very rare, I have to pay ridiculous prices to get them. But I feel I need them because no-one since has manufactured the same things.

If the moulds are worn out you need the masters made from the silicon moulds in order to do that. Either that or the original sculpt to then make a master mould.

Keep looking on Ebay.  You would be surprised how often Renegade ECW comes up for sale either unpoainted or painted but still cheap - and repaintable.  I needed to add a couple of ECY cavalry regiments to suit a new set of rules we were using at the club and over only a month or so found more than enough figures on Ebay to suit my needs.

Weren’t the Renegade and Redoubt Enterprises figures done by the same sculptor so are interchangeable?

I saw the new 1st Corps ECW cavalry last weekend at Hammerhead and I think they will go great with Bicorne and be a good substitute for Renegade.
I am going to build a wargames army, a big beautiful wargames army, and Mexico is going to pay for it.

Yeah, definitely Bicorne. Redoubt are actually huge even when compared with the relatively large Bicorne and Renegade mini's.

I have to challenge you there Atheling! I mix all three together and they look fine together. I started using the Bicorne spare heads on Redoubt bodies too and that makes them even more compatible.
