After brief discussion with a guy who will be producing 15 mm plastics that could be used in FoW (and just to tell you after seeing first models- quality is awesome, well in scale without Batlefront pumpkin heads syndrome) we decided to suss out whether it would be viable for him to produce stuff for early war like Polish army or French army- how many people would be SERIOUSLY considering buing plastic kits like that? Just to give you an idea about prices- it would be around £15 for 100 infantrymen, £4 for tanks. Please let me know as I am posting it on all forums and on that pretty much depends whether he will decide to produce that kind of early war stuff or not.

Well, the quality is awesome in my humble opinion plus all of my mates that have seen samples, but of course some people might disagree. Samples will be definitely shown on different big events but i don't have any pics yet. Well, thanks for those that replied so far, how about others?

ok, so if the models are detailed you would get it - cool.
No particular models planned (infantry though) but if the Polish and/or French range would get a release, there would be few things plus metal blisters available (for cavalry, artillery etc.). So far we have to judge what is the interest, because it is an investment after all. Anyway, thanks for your replies so far.

Well, I am not optimistic, thats why I am trying to find out what the situation is like and asking more experienced people

When I was saying 3 times cheaper I refered to infantry only, not to tanks. Plastic is very sturdy in my opinion, proper hard plastic not the soft one. Of course with lack of care yo uwill always manage to break guns etc but hey- 15 pounds for 100 infantryman (or maybe cheaper, thats a rough estimate) thats really a bargain in my opinion

You can check wuality of sculpts at http://www.theplasticsoldiercompany.co.uk/ (I know , it says 1/72 but 15 mm will be released as well and exactl ysame models)
