Another addition today

Acheson Creations have also been added to the Directory today.

Although associated with making a large range of historical buildings and terrain features, they also appear to have a small range of figures. I can't find any mention on the website of their size or scale, but as their fantasy figures are 28mm I'm going to assume the historicals are as well!

Added to the Directory...

Watchful I Studio has been added to the Directory. Based in the USA, they produce an interesting, small but growing range of figures for the Far East.

Another addition

Another addition to the Directory today is Stoessis Heroes .

Based in Germany, they make a small range of WW2 character figures. Some are based on real people, some are fictional.

Oshiro Added

Oshiro Model Terrain have been added to the Directory.

They have been around for a while now, making some stunning buildings and terrain for the Far East. They have now branched out into making figures. Their first offerings are for the Boxer Rebellion, starting with Japanese troops.

The Boxer Rebellion certainly seems to be the latest 'hot' thing at the moment: this is the second new range for this period that I have listed in the last few days!

Anyway, here is a sample pic from the website...

New Manufacturer Added To Directory

Victorious Miniatures have been added to the Directory.

They are a new manufacturer, based in Britain. First releases are British figures for the war in Holland 1793 - 1795, and Chinese for the Boxer Rebellion at the end of the 19th Century.

Wartime Miniatures

Wartime Miniatures have been added to the Directory. They are an Australian company that produce WW2 Australian and Japanese figures, as well as 21st Century 'special forces' type figures.

Update complete!

Just a quick note that I have finished updating the Manufacturers Directory.

Yes! All 163 entries have been checked and all changes of range, ownership etc have been noted.

Next job is to update the period lists....

1898 Miniatures

Another new manufacturer has been added to the Directory.

1898 Miniatures are a Spanish company that produce figures for the Cuban War Of Independence and the Spanish-American War. Their website also has some useful information on the history of these conflicts, together with articles about modelling and painting.

They have a distribution deal with Empress Miniatures so you can also get the figures from there!

Warlord Games Buys Saxon Miniatures

Saxon Miniatures, makers of some nice Dark Ages figures, has been purchased by Warlord Games .

So, if you are wondering where they went, Warlord is the place to look!
