Yeah, those Chemsoldiers in plastic would be an instant sale for me...

I'm still waiting for an admin to confirm my registration on the Troll Forged forums. It was only last night... but I wonder if it'd be possible to get rid of that step.

For a small(ish) company, people might not come back to post on the forums after waiting to be registered.

Just a thought (I was/am just planning to post how awesome those videos are, and how I look forward to buying plastic from you guys )

Hi, um question for the TFM team. I'm just wondering quite how big your Griffin, Dragon and Nightmare sets actually are, as I plan to put them on Warhammer bases for my armies, and want to know which to get, be it cavalry, screaming bell, arachnarok etc

(Currently saving up to buy some of every thing in the Fishmen range plus some)

I hope the head is removable; it's make a really good basis for a Tyranid Prime.

@MajorTom11: Thanks man!

@RiTides: I'm sorry it took a while. Normally I'm on it rather quickly, but offline life has kept me rather busy at the moment. The reason we do this is mostly to prevent spammers/bots etc from popping up. I've seen on other forums that it has been somewhat problematic with spam from time to time. We would like to prevent that from the start.

@Murdock129: They're monster size, I'll try to look for more info on it (remind me if I forget!), but I think they're about the side of GW dragon models and such.

I found this picture, just to give you an idea of how big the Nightmare is:

Remember the original Plague Minions?


Ed sculpted new versions of them. They will be some of the first models TFM plans to release in plastic.

These are the resin masters which will be placed in the spin caster for plastic production. According to Ed the plastic models should be ready by March, with a possible release in April.

I can guarantee anything at the moment, things are going quite slow. Economic recession, Ed having a second child on its way and him also having had an accident which seriously messed up his hand for several months really put a strain on the project.

Hopefully 2012 will see the rise of TFM!

@Absolutionis: As far as I can tell the models won't be multipart. However, since the plastic is easily cuttable I don't think you'd have that much of a problem converting these models!

Glad to see you're back and updating. Has there been any work on those chemsoldiers over the last few months? I'm still hoping for a legs kit to be purchasable

@ph34r: no updates yet. At the moment Ed is very busy trying to catch up and getting the plastic up and running. Icesword has slowly started working on some of his sculpts, so maybe we will see some more Chemsoldier stuff then too.

Really glad Ed is mending!! If he would share his secret process, it seems that Heresy Miniatures is really eager to know how to do it...

TFM stuff in plastic would be awesome... can't wait to see it!

@Kroothawk- that thing looks like a bear to cast so that could be part of it, too.

lol always someone who does nothing but sits on thier ass all day gotta complain about something. lol. First off the guns on those guys look fine IMO. Given that they are about the size of a toothpick I'd say not bad! The units themselves are sculpted nicely. They just look a hella lot like Vostroyan guys but whatever.

The deamon near the bottom is tooo sickkk! Very very awesome! As for the horns being to long, like cmon really? Really? How nitpicky are people gonna be? Like what, you want them 1 or 2 mm shorter? Is 2 or 3 mm just too long you had to complain about it? Cmon really?

Thats all I gotta say!


*******EDIT************

Oh crap didn't realize this thread was over 50 pages long. lol. I only read through the 1st page. So this post is meant for the guys on pg 1! lol

Another teaser for an upcoming release:



Update from Ed on his new casting equipment:
Update on the part. I just got off the phone and it should be here around wed next week as it's got to go through customs from Germany. If all goes well I'll begin starting some basic pouring next week while the other machine is getting built for the more advanced things.

First of the new plastic boxed sets is out!

The box includes 10 Goblins and goes out for $10, meaning you pay $1 per Goblin!



A box set of Andrew May's Armoured Halberdier Goblins is now available in Trollcast from our store.

So Troll Forged is still alive? I only heard of sculptors like Grimstonefire wanting their greens back because they were just collecting dust on his shelves for years (it's 2.5 years for cyclonus' transport bug now).

I'm extremely excited to see what Troll Forged can do with this new casting method. Is there a release schedule for Trollcast items yet? I'd like to see what is planned before I place an order.
