Nice sculpts, but odd assortment of headgear for F&IW.  Doesn't seem to be anything up on their website about them yet, either.

Rights to M&T?

We have  lol

We'll be working with Studio Tomahawk to do the official M&T II range when it's released next year. The figures we've given a sneaky peek on are the first British Rangers and French wilderness men.

We're really excited about this, as is Mike Owen of Artizan Design who is doing the design work, so much so we're planning to do our first ever non-Osprey related Nickstarter to launch the figures and game.

That's good news, many people have been waiting for a reprint of the Musket and Tomahawk rules.

Great news on the long-rumored 2nd edition of M&T!

That linked photo above looks like there's going to be a number of winter-clothed, FIW being made available too!?

Nice figures for a popular era, but am I alone in thinking the muskets are a trifle odd - strange side panels etc.
