Magister Militum - Selling Up

[Orcs]

OK so I could use the germans as barbarians then

Thanks

Yes, They are lovely figures, so much so I keep looking at buying a Germanic Army, before he sells it. Despite having 4 other ancient 10m armies to paint

[Leon]

Just out of interest, if it isn't 'commercial in confidence', how much did they want for the entire 10mm range?

Not allowed to say I'm afraid!

Are you permitted to say "I'm a bit nervous"?

Fair enough, I thought that might be the case.

[Orcs]

I have some of their 10mm Early imperial Romans and the archers are literally head an shoulders above the legionaries.

I believe they have used different sculptors within some ranges resulting in these anomalies.

Also the Steve Barber 10mm ranges are up for grabs as well. Excellent figures, but
Not completely compatible with Pendraken. Also some ranges are not complete, although I guess a buyer could get Steve to make the masters they wanted

The Chariot 15 mm range are lovely figures.

It's the 10mm prehistorics I'll miss 

...not that I ever got round to buying more than a couple of "essentials" due to the price!

[streetgang]

I picked up some more Magister Militum Crimean War figures (British and Russian) on discount from Scale Creep in the US.

I have a feeling we won't see any of these ranges again anytime soon.

I had an email from MM today:

Thanks fsn, that could be useful to know as H&R don't update thier website that much with new additions. They tend to use thier Facebook page instead,but I don't have a FB account....rely on Mrs Shy when I need to see something on FB   

Good to see ranges staying in production when a manufacture decides to close.

Faceache a movement, they have a buyer, but saying whom.

[Raider4]

[d_Guy]

I agree, a real surprise.

Here is yesterdays announcement:

I hesitated posting since this is now a Pendraken competitor but I think Leon knows that most of his customers are ONE TRUE SCALE fanatics and acquire 10's from everywhere. This does not diminish our loyalty to the mothership which is Pendraken!

Please delete this post if it is problematic and accept my sincere apologies!

On another note: my last Pendraken order left the mothership on the 13th this instance and arrived at my home in the States on the 19th. Pretty amazing.
