Excellent news, thats a great little set.

For people still wanting to boost their collection with resin stuff (and Chris, probably the only PVC model from the lot) you still can!

The resins and some of the MDF buildings are available on back order - blog post

Orders must be placed by 28 Feb, shipping from the end of March. Hopefully nobody is in a hurry

I’m very happy about the ‘last orders’! The only things I’ve never mopped up were the Negan Booster (already had 3 minis of him) and Abraham (again, had a duplicate) so they were always on the back burner. Amazing how quickly this game sold out when the end was announced, after seemingly gathering dust.

I’ll be interested to see if the reprint Chris is resin or PVC…

Though not TWD minis, there was a gent who ran a Kickstarter for that genre of STLs for minis.  I emailed him and asked about his figs, their size and rescaling.  His reply was:

Hi John, Not a dumb question at all. In fact, if the scale doesn't work for you, that would be lame. I know! I don't play that game, but my mins work with Zombicide really well. Also, worst case scenario, you can rescale pre-supported models in Lychee Slicer! Here's a tutorial: When you join the Tribe you get ALL 85 minis instantly ready to download. Each month we add 5 new minis to the library. Kind of my way to give back to this awesome community. Just so you know the earlier models were supported in Chitubox, but we switched to Lychee Slicer for about 90% of our models moving forward. I hope this helps! Yes, please post away! I'm dying to release the Zombie version Stretch Goals! A must have for when your MDS gets bitten! haha. Cheers, Paul

I have no connection to Paul or his company which may well be just him.  I liked some of his sculpts but didn't invest in the KS, though I am probably going to buy some STLs for a friend to print for me.

Sad news indeed. I have most of the collection except the Kingdoms.
I guess there sales went low so it's becoming difficult to maintain it alive.
But a game only die when you stop playing it ... I plan to have some good fun with this one in the years to come.

Just a quick bump to remind folk that the last chance to buy the resins in 28th Feb, ie Monday

In the end decided to grab the updated rulebook just so I had it really.

Such a shame, I just couldn't justify buying any of the models missing from my collection mainly due to the cost, if things were just that little bit cheaper to of gone out with a bang I might of gone all out.
