He did announce this earlier in the year. If I remember correctly he was planning to stop casting Metal at the end of  June. The Blitzkrieg figures were really nice, as were his British Commandos.

Fortunately I have completed my Early war, British, French and German and Commandos

My definition of "completed" is below. (yes I have posted this before)


1, Someone brings out some "really nice" figures that are better than the ones I own.
2, I find a scenario where I need more forces than I currently have.
3, I see some really cheap in a Bring and buy or on Ebay
4, I change the ruleset I use for this particular period , or another version comes out where I need more figures
5, I decide that I really do need another nationalities army for this period ( in the above example Dutch )
6, I go on Early war Miniatures Website late at night after a few beers and decide that a Dutch Platoon is a bit different and I really need them.

Damn my procrastination I always meant to pick up a set of their British Commandos but the absence of pictures put me off
