    Noice! Please to let us know how much and when, though it'll have to be later in the year for me - we just got a new car and my budget is a tad... um... restricted... until Spring.

    Wargames Atlantic kits generally are $30 a box after discount, plus applicable shipping.

    These are on preorder for a supposed December release

    Hmm... I hate to be a pedantic ass, but you may need to look at your website coding - I was trying to use the drop-down menu to look at the historical minis you have on option, and I can't access anything more than halfway down the drop-down menu - it closes if the top header leaves the screen.

    A great model for an affordable price, shame the website it's being sold on doesn't change the currency based upon country - I spend my money only in pound sterling. However as a 3D-printable object it will soon start to spread as different 3D-printers advertise their prices for printing, so hopefully there will be British printers out there who will be willing to print it.

    Mantic have come up with a slew of new stuff for their Tomb Kings and Lizardmen/Salamanders ranges - for the latter there is the Clan Lord on Fire Drake:
    [​IMG]

    And the Ghekkotah Slasher (I wish they would change the name for that thing, it sounds as if it wants to urinate all the time :p):
    [​IMG]

    Of course both seem to rip off the same monster body, and they will have limited use for Warhammer Lizardmen (though the Slasher would make an unusual-looking Stegadon) but any remaining Kings of War Salamander players will be pleased (@Itepixcauh where've you gone amigo? Look what you're missing!)


    And for their impressive Empire of Dust range, the great-looking Necropolis Knights Sandborne Wyrmriders previewed earlier in the thread:
    [​IMG]

    And a new sculpt for their foot Revenant Champion/BSB, which would make a great Tomb Prince or Herald:
    [​IMG]

    Their Tomb Kings line is looking much more complete now, though they'll need to consider models for a Casket of Souls (as the new sets have now ditched those nifty little metal caskets that could be collected to make an organ-style CoS) and a couple of Sphinx variants to ensure all the options in the 8th Edition army list are covered.

    I do like this model, it looks like it would do well in Lustria.

    Not necessarily.

    If wargames Atlantic decides to forgo merchant licenses and offer 3d prints directly.

    I dont see why using PayPal to pay and letting it take care of the currency conversion is a problem, though to each thier own choice.

    They are nice models. The snakes look like an "almost" to me though. Something doesn't look right

    It is very hard to screenshot something closing instantly. Basically, if I try to scroll down the drop-down menu for Historical Miniatures, it closes before I get halfway down the list, so I have no idea what is down there.
