Title: Hinterland Miniatures has been acquired by Dragon Bait Miniatures.
Post by: Cotton Eyed Joe on May 27, 2024, 06:47:55 PM
I have, I am pretty excited to say, acquired the Hinterland Range from Jason Moses, who was just a pleasure to deal with. This range was started in 2009 and I have always been inspired by its depth and creativity. The range was taken out of production three or four years ago. I have set the goal of archiving the complete range under Dragon Bait miniatures as its own section. I believe a realistic date for rerelease is the end of this year. here are some images of the range.(https://www.dragon-bait-minis.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/IMG_2201-2-scaled.jpg) (https://www.dragon-bait-minis.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/IMG_1764.jpg)(https://www.dragon-bait-minis.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/IMG_1252.jpg)

*tsk tsk*

Rerelease suggested as end of year, and you talk of further acquisitions. Calls to stretch too thin should be discouraged!

Of course, Joe, if you DID have your eye on other things...

Edit: Seriously, couldn't you have put a link in the post?

There is some fun stuff he never released. I just released my Auto Hungarian Hussars for my Venus 1888 range..

I'm so happy Jason's fantastic figures will be available again! I never completed my collection and almost everything was sold by the time I found out he was closing up his shop! So many fantastic figures to get yet!

Note to self: put extra money aside for the years end. Remember that US postage is a killer  ;D

This will be my Christmas present to myself this year.

Or badger Fenris Games to include what you want in one of their Dragon Bait/Dark Fable restock orders.

Hinterland had a set of Pulp-type miniatures.  I can't remember what they were based on, but I bought the set.  Are they coming back too?

Excellent news! Some of these figures look to be well suited to one of my ongoing projects.  :)

They would be really useful for my VBCW army. I see the guard in those hussar type uniforms. Ans those marines for the navy.

Great news.  I also was about to order more when they shut down.  Glad to hear the figures will be making a return.

I had a bunch of Hinterland female soldiers (plus an Othodox priest, two pack mules, and a couple of civilians from other manufacturers) for a Space: 1889 scenario I ran at DunDraCon in 2014.

Bummer, I mistook this for an update as to when stuff was going to be available...

However, 'consternation turned to elucidation,' er, elation!

I should have been delighted to see those 'ladies' in action.

Not sure how useful the crucifix would have been if a steppe tiger had been lurking...

Excellent news sir, looking forward to reacquainting myself with these ladies  :)

Think I promised you some pix too, back on that FB place.... these were taken several years ago, so will do some more for you soon.
