Title: 1866 Austrians
Post by: The Gray Ghost on 16 April 2025, 07:42:46 PM

North Star had a small range for Austro Prussian War of 1866 in 28mm, were they sold off to another dealer?

Not sure that’s right. Northstar have just withdrawn the range for now. It may come back. Best to contact Northstar. It is a very nice and extensive range so hopefully it will.

They posted up on Facebook last year that they were going to do a range refreash. I asked them to elaborate but got nothing in response.

Back in December when the ranges were first removed from the webstore, I asked Nick about this. Here's his response:

"1864 & 1866 have been temporarily withdrawn to help our casters. They will come back next year."

I got a reply, and they said that the range should be restarted in May.  :D
So fingers crossed.

That's good news as I need some more figures from the 1864 range.
I knew the ranges being withdrawn was a temporary thing, so having a rough idea when they'll be back helps.
