Current status of Obelisk Miniatures ranges?
« on: March 04, 2014, 02:25:52 PM »
Does anyone know whether anyone has picked up the Obelisk Miniatures ranges by Josef Ochmann? The gangs and the African ranges, I mean...

I bought some Obelisk miniatures at the end of last year (I live in the UK). Had trouble buying them online so I sent them an email and they got back to me quickly. Very friendly, fast, and the miniatures are great!

on the obelisk site, all items are "Currently unavailable "
seem's that the obelisk range is manufactured under licence by black cat bases ltd ...

I hope they show up again. I didn't receive the Baluchi zombies on foot that I ordered when he was closing down, maybe they're on the way now. Plus he was out of stock on the Tongs.

Too nice figures to just disappear.

Definitely want the tong figures, they're too good not to be available.

Never heard about them before...Tribal warrio padding, African Amazones and above all those various tools ecc..seem very useful also for someone who stick on pure colonials settings..but are they compatible (both figures and accessories) with other historical colonial ranges? (Foundry, OG ecc...)..i know, from personal experience, that fantasy conceived stuff is frequently on the big size

Anyone heard anything about whether the Obelisk range has been picked up? I'll bet a few people are interested, especially in getting some of those nice Tong.

Sorry for the threadomancy, but does anyone have any updates on the status of the Obelisk ranges?

With Obelisk closing last year, and Black Cat Bases having issues, I was wondering about the status of these excellent figures, especially the Chinese. I would be great if they saw the light of day again.

Wasn't there something online recently about some company taking over some of the ranges. Unfortunately, there are so many Black Cat/Hat/Bat etc companies out there that they all become confused with each other. The result being that when I saw the notice I wasn't sure which company it involved.  :(
