« on: November 16, 2018, 03:58:33 PM »
Does anyone know if Renegade are totally out of business, have sold their ranges or are simply 'resting'?

I hope they are just resting.
I am going to build a wargames army, a big beautiful wargames army, and Mexico is going to pay for it.

It would be too bad if they were gone. They were my first ECW minis.

They do seem to come and go. So, they may come back yet.
I always loved the heftiness of the miniatures.

If they have gone you would think they would at least sell on their ranges?

Money for them and availability for the figures again for us.

No, they have not gone for good. They put the business on hold indefinitely due to work and young family commitments.  They both have said they intend to return but no decision on when.

I see companies do this - often they will have gone for good.

I really don't know why they don't give the masters to Nick Eyre to cast and sell for them. They would make a good living out of the increased exposure Nick could provide - and he has cast for them in the past.

If anyone out there knows them please pass on this idea. I miss their ranges and would love to throw them some money. If they have a young family this would sure help! ;-)

Cheers

Reading the posts here I'm reminded of the Monty Python sketch about the Norwegian Blue....

I wonder if Nick would pick them up? It would certainly help me finish off my early WWI armies.

There have been packs of WW1 figures for sale on eBay in the uk from Gravesend Models

Limited stock or not I'm not sure. They're not the blister packs, but bagged and in different quantities.

Has there been any update or further reliable news on this? Many people will have partially completed armies and would love to throw some money at them. Anyone... anyone?  ;-)

........and this is why you should always try to buy everything at once.

Granted, with Renegade, I was lucky to hit their regiment packs at half price, buy four get one free - giving the unbelievable price of about £0.40 a figure (if memory serves). It gave me a reasonable amount of figures for the Punic Wars.

I have tried to contact them in the past both about restarting the range and also enquiring about purchasing the range. I've never had a reply.
