It is not a Forgeworld model. It is someones homesculpt which is being advertised as Forgeworld around the internet.

Thanks, looked a bit odd to me.  The website its from also sells other FW models but I thought they were only available from FW not resellers?

FW bits on resellers/bit sites are common enough, Resinforge and Bitzbox both sell FW bits.

They are selling nearly the complete range which I have never seen before

Pretty sure (99.99999%) that the site in the first post is a well-known recaster.  They also produce models which are directly taken from other folks' games/art/IP/however you want to say it, without any kind of permission.

Just FYI.

Edit:
This is the actual producer of the mini. (http://eurobitz.com/en/warforge/2111-officier-disciplinaire-viktoria-skivlana.html) (Their internet store, it seems.)

If you're looking for one, you could also consider the Iron Empire characters in the Raging Heroes Kickstarter.

Don't really like it , I was a bit confused as why they would release one.  Also noticed that the store in the first post has limited edition Death Korps in so they must be recasts.

Technically a good sculpt but I can't say I like it... 1) bolter is super ugly, and more important, 2) always with the titties... and we wonder why the pathetic sexist neckbeard stereotype lives on?

At least its not as bad as the kickstarter tits.

Recasts of FW stuff?...I bet the quality was better, bit like the time people were recasting finecast and selling them on eBay, the running joke (which was true) was that the quality was better than the originals

But that site was in weird money.
