Even at two bucks, I still think their minis are great value for money, especially considering the low shipping charges John applies.

That is tue, I guess it was the 33% increase that shocked, the end price is still very, very good! But you can pick up some pre-Christmas barginsall the same!!!

I like how he was very clear as to why. Only one price rise in 4 years... I really like their range. Some of the stuff lokos a bit "off" but when it's in your hands it is really quite good.

I'm a big fan! A great deal of their minis are excellent by the high standards we impose these days, and even the crappier sculpts are good as filler/crowds! I have a line of injured/sick awaiting paint for my "Tristan and Isolde" movie rescue scene!

I'll have to make my first order then. I've seen a number of their figures painted and they look much better than I expected them to be.

Hmmmm - might have some birthday money coming soon - might have found a home for it...

The Tristan and Isolde scene sounds interesting!

What about fantasy scenery to build your barricades with? I've ordered some sets of boxes, barrels and other stuff. Furniture kits could also work nice.

Need barricades for a future Stillburg scenario. Distant future... :(

Good idea but being lazy I had spotted some rather nice barricades at the old crow website - http://www.oldcrowmodels.co.uk/ainsty/a2841.jpg

Would be nice to add to them and make some smaller pieces too.

Do I remember correctly that I may have seen various heads as trophies on the mega minis site? Made me smile either way!
