I thought the mat was in metric (cm) side rather than imperial (inch)
but looking it up Olfa ones have both markings, one on each side so it could be either (I can't see for sure)
not sure which I'd prefer, I know I can't afford a resin stompa sized kit, but it would be cool

Really like the look of the trucks, I might have to get myself some.
My stuff from PuppetsWar has arrived! I received the following;
Barricades - Really well cast, very few if any bubbles, and a great scale for Infinity. Really well recommended for anyone interested in getting any.
Alien Eggs - Again, really well sculpted and cast, with no bubbles that I can see. The only thing that lets them down is that they have been sculpted on 25mm bases, and you can see the base itself in part of the miniature. Won't be too hard to green stuff over it though. Another good miniature.
ABC Robot style necron heads - Really fantastic. On the smaller side than other things, and I am not sure how they'll work in regards to being used with Necrons, as I have different plans for them, but they're very cool.
Round shields - Slight distortion of these pieces. They're a bit more oblong than they are round. Comes with a variety of Hellenic style patterns, and has a Space Marine styled hand on the back. Good for what I want them for, but the lack of uniformity is a bit annoying.
Alpha Troopers - These are just brilliant. Really fantastic poses, no bubbles and really sharp details. And as an added bonus they can be easily matched with Warzone's Capitol Light Troops and Airborne parts. Warzone's torso's are slightly longer, but that can be easily matched with padding if you so desire to swap around torso's and legs between the sets. I do wish the weapons were cast separately, as I want to put my own choice of weapons in their hands, but converting these miniatures shouldn't be too much of a problem. These bodies with Prodos Capitol Airborne heads and Statuesque Miniatures weapons will become my Ariadna Para-Commandos. The heads will go on the Prodos torsos and possibly the legs to make Ariadna Briscards. The backpacks from the Prodos Capital and Airborne troops also look to be able to fit if you do a bit of fiddling around, which is an added bonus!
Negatives - Their method of packing leaves a lot to be desired. My delicate troops were put in a smaller package inside a larger one which contained all my barricades and heavier pieces. It was well packed with bubble protection packages to fill it out, but if it hadn't of been, parts might have been broken in transit.
Another problem is that a lot of the figures were pre-cut off their sprues, some rather poorly, which has left parts which need to be greenstuffed in areas. Nothing major, but having them on the sprue from the beginning would have been nice.
Overall I am very happy with what I have received, and I will be definitely looking to place an order with them for one of the Trucks and possibly some other things too when they become available. As for now, I need to start work on these Alpha Troopers to get them looking way cool for my Ariadna force.

Thanks for the review Fenruswulf! Great to hear that they have figured out their casting issues. Maybe we could get some pictures of the stuff if you get the chance?

What's the deal with the Pegasus? I can't find all the parts of it on their website, just a few variations.

I don't think I've seen all the individual parts offered, just the kits to build the various types
(you can't get individual bits for most of their other vehicles either, just a few bits and pieces)
if you're after odd bits try dropping them an email and see if they'll sell you them
