We're back! Thanks for your patience over the last 6 months while we got our house in order. There are a few things to note so here we go!
1. We've lowered some prices! Some by over 50%! This is simply due to our lowered cost of production.
2. Everything is on 60 day made to order as we are expecting a high level of demand and need to increase production to meet this. Some items do not yet have efficient production moulds as we need time to remake them. 60 days is the longest your items would take to be dispatched. Some items will be dispatched immediately and most would be dispatched within a couple of weeks. As we build a stock based on demand we will move items to immediate availability. As this happens we will also make them available to retail stockists.
3. There are some new things available which were designed just before the site was previously closed. The AWESOME Plague Giant being one such item!
4. The Green Alliance is available for the first time outside of the Kickstarter campaign!
5. There may be items you can't find. In that case let us know and we can get them added to the site provided we can find good quality masters.
6. MESSAGE US and let us know what bits you want to see. We will be looking to greatly increase the range in 2021.
Finally, thank you all for your interest in MaxMini and the kind messages we've received during the sites downtime while the company changed hands. ❤️

[They're now owned by TTcombat so i think stuff will be shipping from the UK so if your interested and in Europe i'd suggest getting orders in quick]

That's really awesome news - thanks for posting.
A great range of bits and a great option for 40k conversions especially.
PS - Should this probably be in N&R?

yes, posted in the wrong forum but a nice MOD has saved my blushes and moved it,
the prices for the Orc units are very good at £18 for 5 chunky minis, so i'm tempted to get some more, and a jeep or too as well (also £18)

Good to see they're back, I had feared they would be gone. Now that I'm looking at their catalogue again I just realized how many things I already got from them, often things were I thought over they years: Man, where did these things actually come from?

Just a not it was Troll Trade - Tabletop Combat - that bought them up so expect to see stuff appear on the TTC website as well at some point.
Great to see them back and with their full range of products and more.

What great looking mini's.

At Games Workshop, we believe that how you behave does matter. We believe this so strongly that we have written it down in the Games Workshop Book. There is a section in the book where we talk about the values we expect all staff to demonstrate in their working lives. These values are Lawyers, Guns and Money. |

Happy to see them make a return, I've always found their stuff a bit hit and miss for my tastes, but still great to see them back at it. Will have to get their jungle fighters (again) at some point and convert them into a squad of Lucky 7's.

I've just placed an order, naturally over £100 for the free postage, plenty on there I liked, could've got more.
I might have gotten some of my gaming group interested too.

I'm glad they are back, and can round out some special weapons/heavy weapons from the line as I missed them last time.

Automatically Appended Next Post: taken from the original KS ( https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/897209384/the-green-alliance-scifi-ww2-orc-miniatures/description if it's not on the front page trawl the updates) they're really big too, (and most of the arms work on most of the bodies, assuming they're doing the casting the same anyway) I've got a couple built and should be able to put a comparison shot to some GW stuff tomorrow

Received an email earlier today that my order placed back around the end of October is now being processed, so if anyone else placed an order and is still waiting, shouldn't be too long now.

Decided to shoot them an email, as my order from waaaaaay back in October is still being processed.
Has anybody else placed an order with the rebooted MaxMini and received theirs yet?

TTCombat aren't doing any resin casting due to COVID, so it's possible your order is stuck waiting to be cast.

My order is made up of metals, but if that's also not happening due to this, it would be nice to receive a proper update from them regarding the delay.
edit.
They've pulled the entire online store now.

On the mixmini facebook page they say regarding the pulled website MaxMini Hi, we are still working but not taking any additional orders at the moment while we clear the backlog. Once we have shipped current orders and built up some stock we will open for more. Watch this space
and they talk about their resin issues here https://community.ttcombat.com/2021/01/14/2021-covid-update/?fbclid=IwAR2hQ0_uraleb_LJ3PL1gzaGxSLf7B4ibjmUKwwqcZJbu0FwQL-ReO0Pd9Y but I think it's poor that they haven't contacted those waiting for orders (although from the sound of it it's not impossible stuff is sitting in customs in Europe?) i'd throw them an email to TTCombat and ask if they're still casting or if everthing is paused at the moment

And I got a polite reply:
I hope this message finds you well. Im terribly sorry for the delay with your order. We have recently taken over the MaxMini brand and are currently making stock of each of the items. Unfortunately everything we received when purchasing MaxMini has needed to be remoulded and with the covid restrictions, its taking a little longer than anticipated. We are building your order and will be sending out as soon as possible.
I guess the initial sixty days they said they needed for all of this was nowhere near enough then, as this was supposed to be sent out before the end of the year and the whole B-word thing would unfold.
Oh well, it'll pop up when it pops up, probably in two or so months, as it'll be stuck in customs as well now whenever they get around to it.

They pulled everything to deal with the backlog of orders they've got right now and to make new moulds for everything.
