The Stan j and Warlands are just not very good. Tre is just not interested. Patrick Keith is doing 3 new sculpts at 20mm, the same scale as DF, so that is good. I was just involved in a lengthy debate on FB where I suggested this might be a good niche to fill and get some business, and I was shouted down by folks saying there is just not enough interest to warrant doing a new line. Too bad really. I think the market is there, and the lack of interest is due to the complete lack of good minis available.

Was that in our group?  I think there is definitely a market there for a decently sized line of quality minis.

The gangs of 666 group. I deleted the thread, as it was getting rather jumbled and sour.

Ah, I missed it.  I think those conversations are hard to have on pages dedicated to specific games.  But we were talking about it in the general group over the last couple of weeks.  We all agreed it was an awesome idea!

I contacted the Perry's and Alan was very nice saying that they left Sci Fi/Fantasy with GW...  I can respect that. I think if someone came out with quality 20mm not-Mad Max sculpts, they would have a gold mine.  If I could sculpt, I would have done it 5 years ago....

Patrick claims he will be lucky to sell 10 sets of his 3 new minis, and may possibly make up the cost of mastering them after several years. :?

I found it a bit hard to believe, esp considering the interest right now. I tried to convince Tre to have a set ready for the Fury Road release, but again, no luck.
