Does anyone know where to buy this in the U.K.?

Wow those guys look pretty cool. Wouldn't mind some of them myself.

Or in the EU for that matter... :D

I’ve started watching For All Mankind on Apple and seems cool.

That does look tempting :D
However, their FAQ (https://blacksitestudio.com/en-gb/pages/faq) suggests that they're doing everything themselves just now, so you may be out of luck.
Their starter set is quite reasonably priced, but adding p&p and VAT and customs etc :(

Same here, quite enjoying it.
I like the look of Luna and also looked for a UK stockist.
I watched an online playthrough and it looked very crunchy
I wonder if you could take Fistful of lead and add in low gravity and loosing oxygen.

Here's a list of inspiration that has had me chomping at the bit to do some skirmishing on the moon for some time now:
- For All Mankind
- Space Force (the last few episodes on the moon)
- Apollo 18 (bar the evil moonrock bits)
- UFO (the few episodes that take place on the moon)
- The Silent Sea (just the outside scenes; don't bother with the rest)
I suppose it'll be possible to adapt another system to the setting by simply adding some low-G and vacuum rules, but I was just charmed by the idea of having everything in one simple package, with a couple of add-ons for flavour.
The starterbox costs about €75,- but with added shipping, which will probably be about €40,- these days, plus 21% import and administrative fees, we're looking at about double the retail price; €150,-.
And that's just too steep for 10 plastic miniatures, a 64 page booklet, some cards and some tokens. And that's without add-ons, other factions, vehicles etc... :(

Great analysis Daeothar. True all that

If you are OK with smaller scale figures then the Moongrunt figures are very realistic and a bit larger than 15mm.
I did notice the rules are out of stock but had been issued with a PDF - maybe asking if they will release them and the cards as soft copies would be a way forward?
The other option could be to ask if Wayland / Northstar would consider importing the games as they all look very interesting!

A bit larger than 15mm? You mean larger than their other GZG lines?
Thanks

Thinking more about doing this. But I must say I hate putting figures together.
Are these resin or plastic?
