Anyone know anything about these new chunky modern Russians?

I wrote to them and got a swift response. They're bringing out more very soon so I'm waiting before I order, consequently I didn't get a postage rate from them yet.

More info as I get it.

Nice one - thanks for that.

They remind me of Jim Bowen's work at Chiltern a bit. I wonder if they are big and chunky enough to mix with the Chiltern moderns...?

Hmmm.

Don`t know about Chiltern, as i don`t have any of his models.

But i can provide you with comparison photos of ratnik models with more or less common miniatures brands.

Very helpful Nimrod, thank you! :D

I don't see those Stalkers on the site though. Are they OOP? It would be a shame, as that's a really nice miniature.

Really nice figures. Would like to get my hands on some of those.  :D

Now, if only I spoke Russian....

£7.00 a pack, £9.00 postage for 4 packs to UK, seems reasonable to me. No sign of new Russians or Chetz just yet, awaiting eta on those at the moment (just emailed a minute ago).

Prices seem reasonable.

I guess I will have to write them and see if they will ship to the US also.
