Is anyone familiar with the company RAFM Miniatures? They have a mini that I'm thinking about picking up but I've not heard of them before so before I follow through I was curious if anyone had heard of them/purchased from them/etc...thanks!

Also...if this is an inappropriate thread my apologies!

First off welcome to Dakka! I've heard the name before but haven't ordered from them. You could always see if your local store can get the model for you if your not sure you want to order off their website.

Thanks! Glad to be here

I've thought about it but it's a discontinued model and the only place I've been able to find it even at all is there

I would personally order it from them but I would make sure to use a credit card (not a debit card) or PayPal. That way I would have protection if something fishy happened. But that's just me.

Yeah that's what I was thinking...I guess I'll give it a go and see what happens lol

Just out of curiosity which model are you looking at?

Frumitty, Lemur Cleric...I picked up two of the little platypus guys today as well as an otter lol...I need to find Echidnox somewhere but that one seems to be not available anywhere that I could find tonight.

RAFM is a great company. They have been around for a long time (late 1970s...) and offer fast service and some interesting ranges. Canadians - but don't hold it against them. It is pretty easy for them to ship to the US.

The Legion of Justice and Cake miniatures are pretty popular and normally sold out fast. You can occasionally find them in local stores - but most the online retailers have sold through the stock on them.

Depending on how strong your desire is for them - they have been frequent special offerings by Reaper at events and during things like their 12 days of Christmas sales. You might be able to snag one that way. Otherwise - Echidnox has been more or less out of circulation for 3 years now (or close to it).

Yeah I managed to find 2 of the platypus and 1 of the otter at my local shop yesterday which prompted the search for Echidnox lol. I did manage to score 2 of the lemurs from RAFM so I will keep my eyes peeled but not getting hopes up too high.

RAFM is a fine company.
