I take it you are on a percentage? Quite a nifty sales pitch you have there  :lol:

You're right, though. Very reasonable priced, good-looking models. The pinnace would indeed be ideal for a jaunt up the jungle with a few trusty askaris.

I could never find the time to build any of these, but at the proposed price, buying is certainly attractive and I do need some for LOTHS  :D


Who's this "TJSKI", by the way  :lol:  :lol:


 :lol: well I talked some lads into castig them up, One of my mates is good at scratch building whilst the other runs a small company producing 20mm resin vehicles for WW2. So I talked them into the priates via Legends of the old West, linking to figure ranges etc :mrgreen: then Martin started building a small ship so I said why not...and it spiralled from there. I hope I get a freebie :) from this but really it is more a case of I am on quite a few forums where as they dont seem to, not to post anyway so I said I would pimp them for them :)

They aren`t works of art or design but they should work well for skirmish games and the like and I thnk keeping the price reasonable is a boone. It also makes good sense for what is a home based part tiue business to branch out as not every show they attend will have lots of people buying tanks and aroured vehicles, so something different spreads the risk and costs

I'm just collating orders from the interested parties at my gaming club - once I know how many they want, orders will be placed...

I'm really liking those postage costs as well! When ordering big stuff like ships and scenery, one is always afraid the postage will end up costing more than the product itself. I hope postage for the sloop won't jump the trend.

Lewis is sticking straight with the Post office calculator so hopefully the only difference will depend on weight

Are you sure about those?

If so they are fantastic rates.  :love:

It cost me more in shipping to have a pack of GW LOTR figures from Ebay  :lol:

Looks like your buddy will be snowed underby orders :D
