UPDATE - THURSDAY 14th SEPTEMBER 2017:
"COLOURS" IS GETTING CLOSER....!
Well, everything is now pretty much ready for COLOURS on the 16th, tomorrow
I'll get the van loaded and be off down to Newbury Racecourse.... hopefully
we'll see a lot of faces old and new on Saturday. This year we should be back
on the GROUND FLOOR again, it'll be nice not to have to take all the metal
stock up in the lifts!
There are some NEW RELEASES for the show - just a few, but they're very
nice - all for the ISLAMIC FEDERATION forces, we have new packs in
traditional headdress styles, some in the Keffiyeh (worn "Lawrence of Arabia"
style with the Agal rope circlet round the head) and some in the Shemagh style
with the cloth worn as a turban, both with and without it wrapped across the
face for sand and dust protection. The IsFed
"Treadbike" (half-tracked motorbike) is also now available with rider
and pillion rifleman with the Shemagh style headgear. These new variants can
simply be mixed in with the regular helmeted IsFed troops for a bit of
variety, or used separately for irregular and insurgent forces. For those of
you who can't make it to the show, the new releases will be up on the store as
soon as I've been able to catch up with outstanding
orders - hopefully sometime in the coming week.
I've also managed to pack up some ready-made 15mm Starter Army boxes (at
ÃÂÃÂÃÂã36 each, containing around ÃÂÃÂÃÂã42-ÃÂÃÂÃÂã45 value of minis) for some of the
newer forces as well as the usual old favourites - in addition to the
usual NAC, NSL, FSE, UNSC, Japanese, Crusties etc, we will have Starter Packs
for the Islamics, the Eurasian Union Naval Infantry, the Colonial
Defence Forces, the Pan-Africans and the Brethren of the New Light!
We will be doing out usual "show-only" special offer of any TWO boxes of
15mm starter forces for just ÃÂÃÂÃÂã60, which gets you almost
ÃÂÃÂÃÂã90 worth of minis at regular list prices, so you can either
get yourself a complete
two-army setup or else get together with a friend and both save!
Thanks for reading, hope to see some of you at the weekend.
I wish all who attend, and ESPECIALLY, who purchase, a joyous time! However,
on the occasion of my birthday, I've decided to go full curmudgeon, and
complain, yet again, no announced new releases for the vaccheads. *pffft*
Your curmudgeoness (I don't think that's actually a word, but what the
heck?) is noted, Doug. ;-)
I do have some vacchead-friendly ideas in the pipeline, so don't give up
hopeÃÂâÃÂÃÂÃÂæ..

And risk you unleashing some hideous horde down your well-known
wormhole? Crusty old man, aye, but that kind of foolishness well down the
road.

Hmm, 'unleash some hideous horde...' Sounds like a proper order, I suspect.
