Title: Dark Fable Miniatures
Post by: MiniPigs on November 18, 2020, 03:37:27 PM
Anyone order from them recently? They are listed as temporarily closed but they were listed that way in the early summer.

They have some brilliant items.

I think the dudes dead... a buddy of his (Dragonbait?) is taking over. Not sure what happened after that.

Yes unfortunately Dr Mike Burns died earlier this year.

Yes, I understand that Dragon Bait aim to make the Dark Fable range available again over time. There’s a kickstarter running currently to get some Pig Orcs that Mike got Kev Adams to sculpt out.

Ha, I just recently asked about them inside a thread of my own here.

Here is a direct link to the website with announcements of plans to release the range. Nothing is currently available, but I'd imagine if you bookmark the site, it'll be stocked eventually?

Man what a bummer. I had a few emails back n forth with Mike and he was a gentleman and a scholar. This is a strong case study for not waiting on those impulse purchases of cool figures because you’re not sure if you’ll ever use them. I had meant to purchase the whole Temple of Set range and a bunch of the Egyptian stuff. Thanks to this new bloke for taking over. Will check in with him...
