The first of the upcoming Peninsular sculpts/models arrived with us this week, with the new wagons all present and correct!  We've got the larger oxen drawn on the left, and the smaller mule cart on the right.  The sides on the small one will be separate pieces that slot into holes in the wagon base.

On the figures, we've not received the first batch from our sculptor yet as sadly his father had a serious health emergency and he had to race down to Somerset to be there for him.  He's been taking care of his father for a couple of weeks now and will be resuming the sculpting as soon as he's back home.  We don't see any delays to the project at this stage but obviously Tony needs to make sure his father is OK first.  We'll keep everyone updated on this and if we think there'll be any delays then we'll let everyone know asap.

Wagons look great.

Our thoughts for Tony and his father - family must always come first!

Only one is a waggon, I believe. The other's a cart.

Models looking good but as stated above family is always top priority. Wish you and your family well Tony.

Family first.  if figures are delayed, so be it.  I shan't lose any sleep of a delay of even if its  few months.

Hope your father has a swift recovery Tony.


The wagons are rather lovely - wish I had ordered more now.

Wargaming is not important in the scheme of things.  The wagons look good.

Hello lads,

Have these been released please? And if yes where might they be found in the catalog?

Thank you,

These are part of our Peninsular project so they won't be released until the other ranges are complete and we've sent all of the pledges out to the backers.

Ah good to know! Many thanks Leon! They look spiffing and I am sure many of us will find use for them for other periods as well.

Indeed; mine will appear in the SYW, and my wars of German unification. Might also appear as civilian wagons either commandeered or assisting refugees in early WWI.

Given that they are 10mm scale and that I am sceptical on the depths of wagon research behind illustrations in Funcken, Osprey, Hourtouille et al, is there any reason they could not be used in almost any period from Medieval to the horse drawn support of the early Wehrmacht? 

I have some SYW2 I got to go with the non-kickstarter and I see no reason why the good old tumbrel cart EC29 (or 3!) couldnt grace a Spanish hillside.  The real problems start when you put figures on the same base dont they? 

Anyway, I obviously need to grab a few of the peninsular wagons when they are publicly available because I seem to have not included them in my non kickstarter order.  Duh!!  8->
