Well that definitely put me over the line for ordering - not sure what I'll do with a tank, but it looks awesome, and I can fill out the rest of the order with the bits I've had my eye on.

I had my eye on one of those and ordered it ( and as usual a lot of other stuff *cough*).
So far I ordered twice from Victorias and was really satisfied with their great work. Now all I have to do is finish my unpainted stuff before it arrives... So take your time ;-)

I wouldn't count on it. I've had orders arrive in the UK with five days before.

FYI, for US based buyers, their resin caster is based in Utah, so I received my order in a matter of days. I ordered 2 of the Kangaroo APCs which gets you free shipping, and 2 free models...so definitely a win/win for everyone.

It looks like they've raised more than $15,000.00 USD for the bushfire fundraiser, which is amazing. They're accepting orders through the end of January, so if you can pitch in, it definitely helps.

BTW, it was my first time ordering Victoria Miniatures, and the casts are great with sharp details and no noticeable mistakes.

MY wish list for Victoria Miniatures!

1. Arcadian Heavy Infantry. Arcadian men and women with leg armor and helmets with goggles. ( stand in for Stormtroopers/Kasrkin/Scions).
2. Non AK-47 style lasguns/auto rifles. I like the Svargan rifles, but I'd love some Arcadian M4's, or FN FAL etc.
3. Paratroopers! I know the Elysians are probably going away at the end of the year, but some Para type troops would still be cool.

Did I mention Arcadian Heavy Infantry??????

Just a warning, I'll probably repost this wish list multiple times!

Victoria does sell crotch and thigh armour, white metal goggles and gasmasks(currently not in stock ), so any regiment can be made pretty grenadiery/stormtroopery, I'll post one blue-tacked together and post a photo.

More variety of guns, yeah who wouldn't want that? More to play with and modify.

I'd like to see smocks, for ww2 German/British paras, big bulgy pockets really would be cool, and I guess a more suitable para helmet/beret would also help to cover the OOP britsh para/SAS style stormies of old, I mean it would be in line with her Victorians,Tannenburg Fusilieers, Svargans and Arcadians. I can also see them going very well alongside the VanDieman's world Guard (also I could use the berets on my tankers!)

Personally What I'd like to see is:
1. Female version of the heavy weapons team arms, I may have said this already but those arms are very, very versatile, not having that ease of conversion for the female soldiers makes the variety limited. Also many of those arms can be used on infantry soldiers/officers/tank crew/artillery crew to add some more variety.

Pauldrons are from anvil industry, but they you can imagine Victoria's (they are about the same size)

My wish list...

Plastic.

I was hoping the Reaper cannon would lead to more but alas...

I just don't like working with resin.

Update on the fundraiser:

Greetings.

The Victoria Miniatures Bushfire Fundraiser has officially finished. For every Kangaroo APC we sold during Jan 2020, We donated $50 USD to the RSPCA South Australia. I am thrilled to report, we sold exactly 400 units. Together with a couple of private donations that makes an incredible total of:

$20,050 USD ($29,112 AUD) raised.
(Based on the average exchange rate for January of 0.687 AUD)

So far, $25,000 AUD has been transferred to the RSPCA SA, the remaining $4,112 AUD will be transferred Monday. You can visit their Facebook Page to see some of the the Bushfire Recovery work they are doing.

I can never express my immense gratitude to the Hobby Community for this amazing achievement. When I started this project, I never imagined how successful it would be. I have been deeply moved by the immense outpouring of support from you all. What you have achieved will really make a difference.

Together with our USA friends at Trenchworx, we are continuing to work to fulfill Kangaroo APC orders, as quickly as possible. Please bear with us. We always make sure our customers get their miniatures.

Thank you all,
Vx

That is an absolutely stunning effort by Vic. Truly putting her money where her mouth is.

If ever an incentive to buy from her was needed, this is it.

And speaking of things to buy, new Mini of the Month:



Pretty nifty.

Very nice. Almost like a female Eisenhorn.

Great stuff with the fundraiser - and a very nice psyker too.

Fantastic effort on the fundraiser!

Ooooh I really like that new mini...

Any word on a re-stock soon?

new daggers and canteens from Victoria

New mini of the month:

Another great mini of the month.

Angry lady is angry.
Waiting for a few more mini of the months, to buy enough mini of the months to get a free mini of the month!

Actually kinda doing the same thing.

Also please remove that quote from me from your sig. Thanks.

Very nice... I will likely get her with my next order

Desert Scorpions Long Range Group appears among the Regiments available.

Nothing really new available yet, but the portrait is there so you'll know what to expect.
Includes a shemagh +goggles head, flowing tunic style uniform and leg wrappes.

There's getting to be quite the selection available. And well, you can always request to mix and match bits to make your own feel.

The image in question:

Greetings. As things are gearing up for AdeptiCon I am thrilled to reveal this years Limited Edition AdeptiCon Mini, Inquisitor Sister Joan. Sculpted by Patrick Keith.
As usual 200 resins will be made, 100 for the show and 100 for Vic Mini online customers. I'll post release date details soon.

Pretty cool mini, as usual!

And they're live, the ten man squad: https://victoriaminiatures.com/collections/desert-scorpions/products/desert-scorpions-10-man-squad

And from the newsletter:

Five Man Squads, Heavy Weapons Crew and separate components will follow. I also plan to make female troops and even some characters.

I'm impressed, they look really good. When the females und HWS arrive I will definitly order some.
It's funny because I recently thought I will leave my Tallarn detachment a batallion due to lack of variance of my dudes. Guess they will become a brigade after all... Damn I need a bigger vitrine...

Good news! I can now just expand my Tallarn without buying from 4 different suppliers and mix and matching.

Bad news is that my conversions don’t quite match these guys

@ Jadenim: regiments are recruited from a whole planet, no wonder the squads look a bit diverse. At least that's always my explanation for mixing different models and conversions

@Jadenim+Pyroarchi Alternatively gear could be replaced as required and through access to multiple manufacturing plants during a campaign. Therefore making a larger variation of kit that is all essentially the same.

Alternatively, and this is my favorite idea so far: You're basically the early Russian Federation in space and your idea of uniform is wide very widely encompassing.
