So with berets, they could be Soeurs de Bataille?

Latest FB update:

The restock is currently in Cumbernauld. Which means I *should* receive it tomorrow!

So, hopefully tomorrow we have beret heads.

BERETS ARE ON SALE.

http://www.statuesqueminiatures.co.uk/p/9036653/sma013-heroic-scale-female-heads---berets.html





The restock of regular heroic heads is also in.

As for the berets, I placed my order the moment I got the email in, I don't want to wait any longer with sticking my Victorian Guard together!

Thanks Melvin.

Yup, we got there in the end. The Heroic Scale FemaleHeads - Berets are on sale and the restock of the regular Heroic Scale Female Heads has arrived. Loads and loads of 'em, which is just as well as they're flying out the shop.

£4.75 for a set of ten heads with discounts for multiple purchases as usual.

So what do you think, will this restock last the weekend?

Place your bets people

(and congrats to Andrew for making something so many want to own)

What... his name is Melvin?

I'm shocked.

Not just shocked I hope, but rather shocked and appalled?

But yay, got my box of Victorian veterans who are awaiting their new headgear. Not long now!

So you'll have Victorian hipsters who carry their baguette against their armpit hair?

So shocked, appalled and unhinged I might go out tonight and commit random wanton acts of... I don't know, just anything to get it out of my system.

You know there is a song in your honour in French, right?

A parody song, but still.

Wait, wait BrookM...elvin? Netherlands? What happened to the Channel?
I mean I'm Italian...Renzi...Germany? Makes some sense, well to some historians, oh and me of course!

OT: Andrew made some sterling service!!! WOW!!
Was so eager today when I F5ed his homepage for an update since the morning and ordered immediately some beret heads whesn I saw them, the other heroic ones still out of stock and ordered some more in the evening when I saw them. Within MINUTES!! he had refounded the extra p&p!! WOW!!

I wish the French hadn't ruined the beret.

It's rather stylish on Andrew's heads.

This is starting to remind me of an episode of Hetalia.

I won't have a bad word said about the name Melvin!

Well, remember how I'd said (what used to be) three months worth of stock sold in three weeks? That much sold in less than 24 hours...

But there's plenty still left! And I don't think the rush will continue quite so strongly, after all a lot of people had been waiting for the restock.

However, I think I'll order some more on Monday regardless...

Weeeelll, after the first adventurers sold really well at pre-order, sales have died off significantly. Sales of the dwarf berzerker were very poor too. As such, it's difficult for me to justify the time and expense of adding to the range. However, it's a range and style very close to my heart so I can see myself adding to it in time. And it's always the case that adding to a range boosts sales of older figures so it could be worthwhile after all.

Shame they haven't done better, but you have one customer who will buy any more you produce!

Glad I got my 2 sets ordered quickly and hope to see more added in the near future, I will say all your miniatures hold a high quality to them and crammed with detail.

As for the Fantasy range I would like to add the dwarf to my collection at some point, he does so remind me of the characters from the Vikings game

If they ever bring back a militia-type entry to the SoB codex (ah! fat chance!), I am totally re-assigning those beauties from Infinity to 40K.

I have 40 more Valkir incoming, I ought to buy a few more sets. Andrew, do you know how many sets of heads fit into the basic postal fee before you need to increase it?

It's a flat-rate postal charge so you can order as many as you want, you won't be charged any more for postage.

Will do so this weekend. I usually aim at 1 in 4 unhelmeted, but I have to catch up a bit.

Gotmyheads! Gotmyheads! Gotmyheads! Gotmyheads! Gotmyheads!

Well, here's a command squad veteran with a spare Volkite Charger. I'm going to have a lot of fun with these heads and the Victorian Guard.

I wish to see your female army one day in all it's glory brook

I wish to become immortal, so it may be some time to come before the pile of shame is gone.

the only people who become immortal is people with no hobbies....The universe is cruel indeed.

Is there any size comparison images between the regular and heroic scale heads? Your regular range doesn't seem to have much new in it, so I'm wondering if the heroic scale heads would do for say Wargames Factory's models? I've found that the regular heads can be a bit titchy as well (well it varies based on what model they're attached to, and obviously there are less realistically scaled ones), so it would be nice to see how much larger the heroic ones are and if they would suit my models more.

Here's a comparison pic from his site:



L-R: Statuesque Resistance Beret heads, Statuesque Heroic Scale Female Heads, Statuesque Resistance Cracking Hairdo heads

Argh, by my guess Wargames Factory models sit in between those two sizes. :(

The Wargames Factory zombie survivor plastics? I did a quick comparison between a sprue of those and both heroic and realistic scaled heads by Statuesque and yeah man, they're just in between them.

Brother Vinni's heads it is then. :/

The regular heads seem to be geared at realistically scaled 28mm/ 25mm, whilst most 28mm models are fairly chunky. They'd do for Empress models I suppose, just a pity then that they don't many female models (though thinking about I could just stick these heads on Empress male models).

Just thought I would throw this in here. I received my order of 1 set of Heroic Scale Female Beret Heads and Non Female Beret Heads yesterday. Coincidentally I was also in the process of building a couple of Scions for my game tonight.



The only thing I needed to do was leave a small ball of green stuff in the neck cavity to make sure the head sits at the same level as the normal Scion head. Oh and leave a stub of the metal sprue as well. I will be making the other 8 up using the rest of the heads. Will post the pics in hear if anyone is interested.

I am going to be using the non beret heads for a set of Cadians. Plus I am thinking of grabbing a couple of boxes of Dreamforge Valkir to make a set of "Not Sisters of Battle".

Oh yeah, that looks amazing!
