foundry halflings

[Timbor]

I just got an email advertising the upcoming foundry fantasy rules, and the picture had some of their halflings in it:



I remember seeing some pictures of the halflings from the last open day.  From this angle they look like they will be pretty good - probably more on the the scale of 4th ed WFB empire halflings rather than the older tiny Marauder ones.

 Also just had the message.They do look good.Also went onto the Facebook page and saw the Sea Elves.Not sure about them though.

[clam]

Am I excited seeing those?

Such wonderful Pickford sculpts - and I can't hardly wait to get my hands on them.

So, anyone heard anything about thir new fantasy rule book: "God of Battles" (by "legendary" Jake Thornton)?

Oh NO!!!! Not more damn halflings......just went it was looking Like I was getting my army complete.

Look good from here especially the hooded one with the spear and torch,

Here is some concept art

Oh nice, just when I'm close to releasing the halfling upgrades for my goblins that everyone's been asking about.

Look lovely though.

[JollyBob]

They look massive. 

Will wait to see how they scale up with other manufacturers before ordering any.

[mweaver]

They look quite promising.

I'm close to releasing the halfling upgrades for my goblins

Well share them with us then

And if it is any comfort to you ... you can probably beat these on price and shipping costs

And here is Dozing Dragon's old picture:



Think, we now have seen all the halfling sculpts I know of.

[Timbor]

Ah yes, thats the picture I was referring to!

I also am interested in how the fantasy rules work out.  Maybe if they offer them at 50% off this Christmas I will give it a try if it gets good reviews...

Nice to see some new rules coming out.  First Mantic is officially releasing their rules, now Foundry has some in the works.

 Just phoned Foundry and they said that there will be several packs.Going from other releases we could be looking at six packs.No set date for release though  .

As someone who has been drawn in by the lure of the little fellows, I'm pleased there are more options on the way. However, these look a bit too... comical... for me. I like my Copplestone fellows, which strike me (this is soooo subjective, I know) as more 'Scouring of the Shire' than Warhammer-esque country-bumpkin bucolic idyll.

I do love the 'Lobelia Sackville-Baggins' with the rolling pin, though  


Edit - grammar corrected so my comment makes sense!

I just googled "foundry halflings" as I knew I had seen the concept art somewhere before and that's what came up

Thanks, Andy. To my knowledge there are about 20 haflings, the bar and a "porky pack pony called Philip" - all by John P - so yes, could be something like 5 maybe 6 packes coming.

So, no date yet! Hopefully it won't be that long - or maybe just in time for Christmas

 The person did say some time before Christmas.
