Teddy Bear Wars
« on: December 02, 2014, 07:11:12 PM »
remember these figures from Eureka?
Does anyone know what happened to them
I used to be with it, but then they changed what it was. Now what I'm with isn't it anymore and what is it seems weird and scary.

I wanted to get more, and I have no idea who Phil Mcinerney is or which company he is connected with.

Nic sold the range to another company, not sure who. I know a guy with a set of the pirates, unpainted, if you're interested.

The nice guy who bought the range has now all the moulds and painted samples.

I'm sure it will not be long before you see the Teddy Bear range, unfortunately, I cannot give you a time-line.

All the best,

Helen

That's interesting, there's also ACW gnomes and dwarves on the market

I'm trying to fill gaps in my SYW set, found this latest update:
http://theminiaturespage.com/boards/msg.mv?id=376527

Okay, it's from March 2015, but Mike Broadbent (sculptor) states "I have heard from the new owner and because of all that is going on in Iraq he may not get here until late April [2015].". Phil's LinkedIn profile states he's still in Iraq with UNICEF, so I guess we will just have to wait.

Shame, these really are nice miniatures.

This is probably a dead thread.  In case anyone is still looking, I've designed some early 18th Century Teddy Bears. There's some digital renderings and amateurishly painted models at www.compactwargaming.com.
