Hi all, I want this set 28mm Foundry Victorian: Secret Agents of the Crown but I can't seem to find it anywhere but at a wholesaler that only sells to game stores. I have e-mail the foundry people directly but I go no response and they are not displaying the set on their website. So other then the wholesaler this  seems to have disappeared, anyone have any ideas?

Cheers,

Irish.

This set was made up of "Limited Edition" and marketed by the previous management team, has they were meant to be "Limited Edition" and not for general release, they have subsequently been removed from production.

SO your saying they will not be making something that people want to buy because originally it was meant to be LE but wasn't for a long time?

I'm not sure what figures you're after but I do have a limited edition Holmes and Watson by Foundry. Are these, by any chance, some of the figures you're looking for? They came as as a pair in a blister.

I have them half painted. I gave up on them because I don't like them. So if you want them you can have them.

Hey,
I'm not sure what figures you're after but I do have a limited edition Holmes and Watson by Foundry. Are these, by any chance, some of the figures you're looking for? They came as as a pair in a blister.

I have them half painted. I gave up on them because I don't like them. So if you want them you can have them.

I don't know those two, I was looking for Faith and George from the above set and VonMoltke said he had them for sale but never responded to my e-mail or PM so I now believe he was trolling me. Do you happen to have a link to a picture of those two miniatures? Also I love your website by the way.

Cheers,

Daniel

They may become available if the moulds can be found. There was some interest in a Moriarty figure I had painted and shared on google + and my blog by Bryan Ansell it was suggested that if they can find it they will release them.

I have a Victorian chap in Hussar jacket with a Winchester and a lady in long coat with pistol and sword. Do these sound the figures you are after? Do you have a piccie? I used to go to the Foundry sales under the old management and they sold off all sorts of Victoriana goodness at silly prices!

Here's a pic of the pack in question:

Hello Grimjack,

Sorry about the lack of pictures in my description I haven't the foggiest how to post them on the forums. Regardless Faith Tobias, the lady with the long coat, sword and pistol and Gorge Tobias the fellow with the Winchester are the two I am looking for. Are you considering selling them? If you are PM me the amount you think is fair for them and we can work out details.

Cheers,

Irish

Sorry, lost track of this post due to family commitments. I have now traded those figures with a friend but was at Foundry the other day and will go again to see what I can find. It may be worth emailing them direct as they keep finding all sorts of things and a small nudge may result in them being cast up.?

Sorry for losing track after realising your hopes.

Irishrover already said he'd gotten no joy from eMails.

After seeing the image, please do see if you can find more! They are SMASHING!
