My friend found this site the other day after we were talking about getting some Forge World models. He really wants to order from them because of how much cheaper it is, but I just don't trust the site.
Can anyone give me information on this site? link removed. Reds8n

It's not legit... recasters.

FW does not discount, therefore anyone selling FW stuff at discount in bulk is not on the up and up.

Thank you very much for the replies, I will let him know that they are recasts and that you can't get legitimate Forge World models discounted.

Well, you can, but not through, say, a store like this selling lots at a standard discount. Getting FW at a discount generally boils down to finding good second hand auctions on ebay and the like.

Yeah they're ripping off Kromlech and passing it off as GW as well.

100% scam.

<link deleted-Kid Kyoto>


They are incredibly brazen. I guess they think copying FW's website design makes them look more legit?

On the bright side, that means Kromlech's stuff is so good somebody thinks they can pass it off as Forgeworld, which speaks volumes for the original models. (coincidentally, they cost the same as buying from Kromlech, the guys who actually made them)

There's too many pages to comb through on th resin forge mandalbaum thread but the email listed for this site is Jim folly is it the same name that was provided as "proof" from a supposd forge world employee?

Also the name reeks of being fake "folley" as in being a a complete mistake to order from them

Closed as the site in question is incredibly dubious.
