Magister Militum are having a sale of some ranges. Oddzial Osmy packs at £2 a time for example.

Not for the current price sadly...

Baccus Miniatures are the new owners of 10mm Magister Militum historical!

Fantasy set still avalible

Well . . . that's a surprise. 

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.

Hence 10th Legion and not mainstream Baccus?

I read that as some kind of licensing deal. 

I just thought it weird my quote from their site needed correcting

All good, I've deleted my post!  It's great to see the MM 10mm ranges back online, I know a lot of folks were left with unfinished projects so they'll be able to get those extra figures now.  And having more options available in 10mm makes the whole scale more viable to newcomers.

I don't envy Pete/Baccus the job of cataloguing and getting them all back into production though, there was a lot there to work through!

It's interesting to see where these ranges are going.
I rather fear whet the prices will be when the new owners have production established.
It's not uncommon to see prices hiked by 20% when a range changes ownership.
And that's before energy and metal inflation is factored in.

A couple of personal opinions:

Magister Militum and Pendraken present rather different styles of 10mm figure.
The MM were rather stout, much as old Minifigs presented a "well fed" interpretation of 25mm.
For me, the difference was too great to mix figures from different manufacturers.
I have used a couple of MM historicals where no appropriate Pendraken figures were available.
That's a very rare situation.

Maybe more universal.
Several MM Historicals did double duty as humanoid races in their fantasy range.
(Roman, Chinese, Medieval European, Savannah Tribes).
All except the Savannah Tribes have disappeared form the MM listings.
