Hi, my name is Chris Hill. I am production director for NemoMiniature. We
should be releasing the old "Future Warriors" range as part of our new future
skirmish game, "Cyber Wars". This should be released in the next few months.
We will be using all of the Future Warriors plus some new pieces thata are
currently being prepared. I will keep you posted on their availability.
However, if you are interested in a small number of old Grenadier blisters, we
can produce them. As this tends to interfere with normal production, we only
give provide this service to mail costumers. Please
let me know which codes you're interested in, and I will e-mail you
their
availability. We usually charge 2-piece blisters 5500 Italian Lire
inside the EEC and 4 US dollars outside. As for Runequest, despite Stratelibri
(the main company to which NemoMiniature belongs) owns a considerable share of
the Glorantha universe, we are currently not producing any new miniatures. It
is yet unclear how things will develop in the future.

Hoping to have been helpful,

Best Regards

I forgot that it was old Gren figs in the previous threads. The
difficult-to-find only adds to the hunt. As it was with Superior
spaceships
being re-issued, the above was met with a little bittersweet reaction in
me.

*sigh* And just after I'd finally hunted down an in-shrink copy of Kill
Zone in a cut out bin. ;->=

I guess I'm too much the collector, and too little the gamer.

P.S. Anyone have info on Minifig spaceships(early 70's)? I've a couple of very
old ones, didn't know who put them out til I saw some being flown as Epic
Thunderhawks in Denver. Weird, I'd never seen 'wing' insignia
apparently hand-scratched into production models. ;->=

Err,....I hate to say this but you could have had my copy, the game itself if
poor, however, the 10 figs that come with it are some of the best in the FW
range. On that note I don't suppose you would like to swop the troopers in the
box set (specifically the ones with the berets) for some with helmets?

Does anyone know where to get the Future Warrior rules from?

Thanks
