Looks interesting but we have pretty much all the Europeans we need at present. Imperial Chinese might be useful, but waiting to see the pics.

Right up my street but I think the most intrinsic component of a Boxer Rebellion range would be Boxers and I am not seeing any.  Polearms are listed for the initial release but I will not back unseen. I hope it is successful and the stretch goals are all hit but as it stands the muskets at £2000 seem a long way off and the Tigermen at £3600 unlikely and if many are like me nigh on impossible.

If you already have the Allied powers you are only going to need Boxers, and you can never have enough Boxers, so the schedule is a bit backward imo.

well like it says the masters are made the kick starter is only there to speed up production if the kick starter fails then they will still come out over the next 12 months or so people support it and they will all be out sooner by september at the latest,so support it andd get them this year or dont and get them next year ,they will be out eventually and the schedule was set up after asking what people wanted so cant really blame the lads for that one and im guessing more pics will go up as targets are hit as with most kick starters . I wish them good luck they are a fantastic shop thriving in a world of inter net only purchases .

Yes I would like to support this but like previous posts have all the Allies I need if boxers were on the list earlier I would be in.But its pole arms not firearms that should be the majority so agree it's a bit back to front! Good luck with it once released I am a buyer

Spoke to John and saw the figures for real ,the second goal has just been passed but with or wothout support the range will be out this year with lots more in the pipeline ,they are listening to requests and are palnning civilians etc as a follow up .They werent happy with the boxers so sent them back for a rebuild but samples should be up soon .

Like the idea but the figures are a step back in time not forward....reminds me a bit of Essex Minis in terms of lack of detail and shape....but as I said, I like the idea. That said, where are the Boxers??? You can't do a Boxer Rebellion range without them....  ???
