Eureka Tchanka
« on: 14 February 2015, 12:32:32 PM »
Just to complete the 'set' here's my Eureka ones, which as you can see, fit in perfectly with all other BoB figures.  A lovely crisp casting, and easy to make up.  I genuinely think these are the best ones out there.

All limitations are self imposed.  Work hard and dream big.

Did they change the size? The one I bought a few years ago looks ridicully small near Copplestone figures. :'(

Dunno.  The ones I have, as you can see from the pics, look fine.

I just put in an order to Eureka USA for, among other things, one of their tchanka.

Hoping they can get it to me in time for the Trumpeter Salute convention over in Vancouver at the end of this month, where I'm running not one but two RCW games, but I may have left it too late. We shall see...

My Eureka tchanka arrived yesterday. I'm about to pull it out and get the metal all cleaned up so I can assemble and paint it this weekend - I want it ready for the convention game I'm running at the end of March!

I'll take lots of photos and get some blog posts up. My RCW figures are an even mix between Brigade Games (most of my Whites) and Copplestone (most of my Reds) so I can get pics alongside these "standard" RCW/BoB ranges.

My initial impression, peering through the plastic baggie, is the casting is very well done and very clean. Can't comment on the size/scale yet.

I am rather sure, you will find the tchanka identical, while the the Eureka horses are smaller and more spindly, than the horses used on the photo here.
