A new box of French Rev / Napoleonic goodies from Rob at Eureka USA. Ordered Friday afternoon and received Monday! Pretty damned fast! I got the new Austrian handlangers and a pair of guns for them to man handle, cheveauxleger at rest, and enough French fusiliers in firing line to make up my next regiment.

I also picked up a couple of 15/18mm AB Napoleonics to check them out. They are stunningly beautiful. I don't know how they managed to pack that much detail in.  :-*

Okay, time for everybody to get mad at me again...  :?

Ironclad makes great stuff... but when it comes to ordering stuff over the net, their service sucks.

Ironcladman is a nice enough guy.

I have ordered from him only once (3 packs of infantry and 1 steam tank), but it took over a month to get and I was missing the stack for the tank when it did come.

I want to order more... but over a month for delivery...  ???

I got an order just the same in a week or two. Perhaps it was the time of year you ordered?

And for us non-island dwellers, there's a delivery time for at least one month nowadays.
I blame the Royal Mail.

Indeed, add in the Spanish Mail and you have a disaster on your hands...  o_o

However, in my case the problem was that the tank I ordered was not available.  Perhaps adding an "in stock" feature to his site might do the trick.

As I said, I love the minis and the tank, and I was planning to buy a whole lot more.  But the time it took to get the order put me off so badly, I doubt if I will order from him again unless I have some indication that the stuff he offers is available to buy.

In hindsight, I apologize for hijacking this thread which is not meant for critiquing manufacturers but for posting folks "Latest mini received."

Sorry... do carry on all.

An order of saracens from Black tree UK, respecting their 1.5 month delivery time punctually  lol

All boos and woes apart on the company, I really like their models and comming from a country where `online shopping` has only just outgrown it`s child shoes (hell, only since this year we can `pump up` paypal straight from the bank accounts) I don`t even bother it takes that time.

Perhaps I missed them, but I just went through their online catalog, and can't find these anywhere.  Where did you find them?
