I experimented with a yellow font, I find the black almost impossible to read on my screen. If it wierds anyone out I'll change it.

A very nice bunch of figures from Eureka once again. To get them you had to basically give your name up for each of the 100 Club Revolutionary Wars packs?

Anyhow, thanks for the pictures 8)

The yellow font did not bother me at all BTW

I have an arrangement with Eureka unrelated to the 100club. I tend to get most figures, but occasionally miss some by accident. Unfortunately while the 7YW and Revolutionary France figures are powering ahead, they are delaying my Sandra 7YW cavalry.

I don't mind so much as I am mostly an Austrian player regardless and I do like these new figures as well.

Supposedly they have been slightly reworked since the first set was released to increase uniform accuracy

Lovely figures indeed.
Will they officially release Sandra range?
Any photos, please!

I have no news on the Sandra range apart from what I already previewed on my site. I'm guessing it's 10 years old since the first figures were made and it's still waiting for completion :( Other Eureka ranges are in a similar boat, so I'm not too worried. I've changed jobs to a lower paying less 'politics' one, so my capacity to throw a bunch of $$ at it to move is mostly gone. I also have next to no time for miniatures due to personal circumstances timewise so it's not orrying me too much. I was told last year it would be completed last year, I will have to ask if there is any newer movement.
