Really nice Phil as ever, but I have to say at £35 that real estate remains is a little on the pricey side, even if it is the nicer less radiated side of town.  :?

£30...
That's a lot of resin across four moulds, makes average piece £7.50 each and each one is three times the size of say this £2.50 piece from the ever brill Warlord...

or more than two times the size of this £4 piece from the fragrant Empress...

As I see it that's makes mine cheaper, but thanks for bringing it up...

I want to bite, if nothing else just to support you, but how much is shipping to the states?

well, 30£ is quite a good price! =) Maybe you should add the option "plaster" instead of resin... it makes everything cheaper, the moulds will survive longer, and of course the risk is for the buyer! =) That should be an option, but why not? =)

As I said in PM Phil wasn't trying to undermine and I do really like them, maybe offering them as a pack option and singles as well would be an idea? Again I know the cost of resins and materials and time etc so wasn't knocking the product and the end product does look nice.

Got mine from Phil and yes they are lovely.  Depending on your gaming bent they work for pretty much everything from WW1 to Post Apoc and 40K (uuurgh GW, but there's no accounting for taste).  I'm working towards two major campaigns this year, TET and Arnhem both of which fit these perfectly.  That said I am biased, I've got SI terraced houses, hesco barriers, and the new sandbags he released a little while ago.

Good luck with the new line Phil.

Best, OG

They look great Phil - bags of detail.  These look idea for Fallout, or any other near future gaming, and personally the price seems very reasonable.

Looked at your website, and the sandbags are a useful addition to the range as well.

My personal favourite has got to be those modern cargo containers you've done - the fact you've also got them as a partially "sunken" option has got me thinking of scenarios, just so I can use some.

£5.63 is the cheapest option, that's via untracked airmail.  ;)

I seem to remember that recently deposed Clearasil botherer Col. Gaddafi used to dig big holes in the desert, put a cargo container in it and fill it with live people he didn't much care for and then cover it up again.  Nasty bugger.

Some form of hostage rescue scenario with assorted baddies might work?
