Re: AKULA's Apocalypse Isle Miniatures - 29 NEW FIGURES (pg 19)

[pinstrpepete]

I had somehow managed to completely miss out on this thread. Definitely interested in the figures and some of the vehicles.

[Argonor]

Rather spiffy, I say! 

[Grimm]

Oh i realy like these stuff, can't wait to see more.

[Michka]

I love these miniatures. The poses are so natural, as apposed to the acrobatics many modern figures come in. I want on the list too please. Hell, I might even get around to painting these.

Mini review:

My order of two Land Rovers and a Kombi arrived today, which is really very quick service to the antipodes around a week and it may have been less as i only checked the mail today. Everything was securely packaged and arrived intact. Excellent service from Matt who was also great in letting me know when items were posted.


All the items are very cleanly cast and beautiful little models.  The Landies are gorgeous little resin models with a ton of white metal extras. The VW Kombi is a real delight. White metal two piece body which has been very cleverly designed so it's a seamless fit. I'm quite chuffed that it matches my Disney Pixar kombi pretty well for size. My only issue with it is that I would have preferred it without a cast in driver but that's no biggy and overall I'm delighted with my purchases. I can see myself buying some more Land Rovers.

Great service, lovely models. Highly recommended.

Really looking forward to the minis, Akky
They're looking awesome!

Lovely minis Akkie

That's a lovely mix of mini's.

Before I order the new figures, is there an ETA on crew for the Land Rovers?

[AKULA]

Before I order the new figures, is there an ETA on crew for the Land Rovers?

Yes indeed. 

I have one civilian-type driver being posted to me this week by Ian Mountain, plus a more paramilitary-type driver and standing gunner being worked upon by Mark Evans.  There are also another ten civvies being worked upon by Ian M. and Shane Hoyle that I should also have in the next week or so.

Once the driver/gunner arrive from Mark they will all go straight into a second mould for casting - realistically though, it may be between 2-4 weeks for completion of those greens, plus another 2-4 weeks for mould-making/casting by Griffin - from my point of view they are a priority and will definitely be in the next mould, but I can't give a more exact timescale than that due to the variables.  I also have a restock on order with Griffin for the land rover, which should be with me in 1-2 weeks (I still have some VW Campers).

Just to reiterate though, as this is all funded personally, and not a business or a kickstarter, I'm hoping that my fellow LAF'ers will buy the first wave now, rather than hold off for a couple of months as I have casting bills to pay 

[Dr Mathias]

Makes sense, thanks for the reply.

[AKULA]

A big thank you to everyone that has supported my little project so far.

Currently waiting on a restock of the Land Rover, which should arrive any day.

Have some more greens to post up shortly - more civvie types from Ian Mountain, including a driver for the Land Rover, plus some more characters from Shane Hoyle.

Also in the pipeline are some more vehicles, plus some paramilitary-type minis.

Still have some of everything figures-wise, so drop me a PM or email me using the address on my blog (link in my signature below) if you are interested.

Very nice! Can't wait to see what's next.
