I think you can still get them from John if you contact him. I had some from way back, but I needed the command pack, and I was able to get them from him recently (last 18 months or so).

You should be able to reach him at inquiry@johnjenkinsdesigns.com.

Your views gentlemen?

They look very good.

It's always interesting to see someone else's thoughts on something you are actually working on as well. Last weekend I put together a Chinese list for Sleeping Dragon, Rising Sun that had Terracotta Warriors in, but not just infantry... great minds think alike obviously  lol

I have some terracotta warrior figures too, plus a Jade mummy and a pack of hopping vampires.

Some of these may make their way into a tong company based on a combination of stats from the Chinese and Egyptian companies in the rulebook; including:

Leader - Chinese wizard (along the line of Fu Manchu with mystic powers)
Tong Members - will end up with stats somewhere between tong and cultist figures (American tong 'soldiers' favoured axes and Colt revolvers)
Jade Mummy - as per Egyptian company
Martial Artists - as per Chinese company Dragon Warrior
Hopping Vampires - will have to come up with some interesting stats for these

I got the last sets available in the uk at the time at salute 2011. They haven't been on  the site for ages. Got the Chinese vampires and jade mummy at the same time.

All lovely miniatures.

I've been working on some ideas to adapt Ronin for our Chinese Fantasy Range, but I guess that IHMN would work as well..

I used those figures to make a Blood Bowl team last year - they are great!
Now I am going to recycle them for IHMN too  :D
