Minis News 10 Dec 05
Back from my travels, catching up again.
Ilyad green
Another strong model from Ilyad, following on from the previous Howling Crest (Crete Hurlante) virago - a Howling Crest Champion, modelled by Jacques-Alexandre Gillois.
Fantasy Warriors re-releases for December
Merliton continue to roll out their recasts of the old, classic Grenadier models. New for December:
- Dwarf with spear command group (pictured)
- Dwarves with axes on bears
- Dwarves with spears on bears
- Dwarf bear-rider drummer
- Dwarf bear-rider hero
- Dwarves on giant bats
- Jumak the Destroyer (orc)
- Brenn IV, Dwarf King and Army Command Group
- Dwarves with axe on bears Command Group
ebob Mongol Cavalry
Some beautiful 28mm mongol cavalrymen from ebob, based on his equally excellent horses. In the time between the announcement coming out and me making this post, the first castings have sold out, but more are promised.
Carolingians and Late War Germans from Artizan Designs
Carolingian period infantry (pictured) and cavalry (the latter using ebob's horses, and late period WWII Germans in winter gear.
Eastern Front Studios greens
Despite the name, these are fantasy models. The images are really too big (even for me) to include in here, you can get to them via this link. Eastern Front Studios are here.
Another Hasslefree Orc Preview
Yet another, and keeping up the high standard.
Spyglass
Sadly, Spyglass say they're going to be winding down in terms of the models they release, with the possible exception of the specialist zO line. Disappointing, and illustrative of the good reasons for supporting independent/smaller manufacturers.
Darkson Designs new models
Some new/upcoming releases for Darkson Designs' alternative WWII universe, greatcoated germans and American NCO (again the images are too big to include here).
GW news
Games Workshop UK now have the promised Dwarf characters on advance order, up to Josef Bugman (pictured below). I acquired the Dwarf army deal, and so have the new Army Book (or had it waiting for me on my return, I haven't actually read it yet). They also have a Tau ethereal on their sneak peeks section. Also pictured below, the 2006 limited edition games day mini, now being advertised on the GW-US sites.
Mail order company Alliance Games by the way has the following advance orders, for further clues on the Tau and other releases (hmm, a new biovore):
GAW 47-34 Warhammer 40K: Imperial Guard Vostroyan Platoon $90.00
GAW 51-13 Warhammer 40K: Tyranid Lictor Death Leaper $25.00
GAW 51-14 Warhammer 40K: Tyranid Biovore $20.00
GAW 56-15 Warhammer 40K: Tau Sniper Drone Team $25.00
GAW 56-18 Warhammer 40K: Tau Aun Va Master of the Undying Spider $30.00
GAW 56-19 Warhammer 40K: Tau Piranha $25.00
GAW 56-20 Warhammer 40K: Tau Vespid Stingwings Command $30.00
GAW 56-47 Warhammer 40K: Tau Vespid Stingwings
New Mongoose B5 game?
From DakkaDakka - Mongoose to release a Babylon 5 ground combat game, "War without End", 15mm format, due April. Yech.
