And for those without facebook here are a few tasters:













No sign of a release date as far as I can see but I imagine they're gearing up for Salute like they did with their cavalry sets.

Exept some of those helmet it looks like a nice box.

Helmets look a bit big don't they?

Otherwise they look really good to me!

[DoctorPete]

Have these on the "to buy" list.

If my eyes don't deceive me, there seem to be various sizes of helmets there? I know very little of the subject, but weren't some of them pretty big anyways, especially ones four jousting (or on horseback anyways)? although why one would choose to wear one on foot? Perhaps just due to necessity?

[pocoloco]

Yes, there's variety in the helmets but some do seem to be on the too large side of things. Dunno if it's the angle of the pic but the in the first pic of built minis, in the first row on the left, the helmet seems to be way too big.

Just check pics of real helmets of the era; Sugar Loaf, Great Helmet, Barrel Helmet etc, big but not that big.

They posted a new painted Teutonic on their facebook page.





Nice

[Kitsune]

Yep, that's pretty tasty alright.

[Mr.J]

I have to say I do like them. Some of the heads do look large but not overly so in my eyes. They look like they paint up a treat too.

[Hildred Castaigne]

Wait... so how many figures come in the box?
All of the 'and/or' made it a bit confusing. 

[Sangennaru]

somehow it seems an army of teutonic children. That's just me, probably! ^_^

[Lord Ekard]

[Dr. The Viking]

I really like these and will have to get some. Fantasy purposes though.

[tomek917]

Yeah, they look really good, I might get a box or two!
