The one issue I have with these is that only one of the High Elves is holding his spear straight up. But DE banner bearer though, is amazing, and the rest is fantastic as well.

Looking for the Empire spearmen from the Warhammer sixth edition box set (empire vs orcs) Must be unpainted and in good condition. Also looking for MIB Empire State Troops boxes.
Looking for Battle for Macragge and Black Reach Tactical squads, unpainted and unassembled. |

Wow, very snaz! Also good to see them making use of decent paint jobs in there advertisements. I see too many times people make what seems like good figures only to have bad paint jobs on them and ruin it.

Wow. These are bloody nice. I'd like to get both of those two greens shown (elf and dwarf). Anyone know where these are actually available from?

The models are amazing, and really like the look of the dwarf character green, certainly the latter is better than AoW IMO, and I love the AoW range

Don't know other sources, but Battlefield Berlin sells them (well not yet the WIP models though):

Is there anywhere else to buy these (like an ebay seller)? I'm interested in the 2 new dwarf models, but I don't want to buy them from their main site which only lists the costs in rupees (there are "price in USD / price in Euros" buttons, but they don't seem to do anything). The battlefield berlin shop is listed in euros which is fine to me (I buy models from the UK/ EU all the time) but doesn't have the dwarfs that I can see.
Anyway, hopefully they set up an ebay shop like the Technolog thread has for those Russian miniatures. I've had no problems purchasing them but I think I might throw up some red flags on my Paypal account if I were to check out through this site...

if you're short, try breaking some pots; usually some in there - if not, look in some tall grass.

1.) Russia is not India, and the currency is rubles (never sure how far US knowledge goes  )
2.) If you turn on English language, you will find Euro prices down below the entry. Guess you can now order there.
3.) http://www.ebay.com/sch/mrs-velard/m.html has a few and can get you the rest if you contact them.

Kroot, while I appreciate the help, if you could leave off the US-disparaging remarks at the end, it would be greatly appreciated. I made the mistake of typing rupees instead of rubles. There is no need to stereotype "US knowledge" as a result of that. As we all know, stereotyping goes both ways and is overall just a really negative thing. Please try to refrain from this in the future... regardless of your stereotyping "US knowledge" based on my comment, I have traveled to Europe 3 times ( UK, France, Spain, Belgium, and The Netherlands), and to Argentina once, and my wife only came to the US when she was 16. So, again, stereotyping is uncalled for and a simple correction would have sufficed. You may think I'm overreacting but you make this type of comment often and again, it is uncalled for and inappropriate.
The euro button still doesn't work for me, I'm wondering if it's my browser. I'll keep an eye on that ebay seller- I've ordered from them 3 times already  as they have fantastic models very affordably priced. Will see if they get the dwarfs in stock in the next month or so and if not I'll contact them about it (which I did for their cannons when out of stock and ended up ordering through their webpage).

I went ahead and contacted the ebay seller mrs-verlard, will report back what I find out  . Since these are new releases I don't know if they'll have them in time to ship with my other items, but if they do it would be sweet!

That's what normal sized breasts on a muscular/fit woman look like.

Lol, that's probably what I was thinking of, actually
The ebay seller got back to me that they need a few days to see if they can find those items. So, fingers crossed!

I've purchased from them before, I play chaos dwarfs and bought the techno cannon from them for my dreadquake, I also bought there 40kk terrain so they are a legit seller.
Would be nice if they start carrying more of the russian alternatives. I want the elf prince and chaos fire dwarf.

We missed one of the more anticipated offerings, more of their dwarves of the fire canyon!
Unit of 5 with hand weapon and shield, with 10 heads included. Apparently sold out of the ebay store at the moment, but here's a picture that was posted over on chaos dwarfs online:
Command, with the ebay picture (more are on the actual page):
Here's a link to a brief unboxing post over on chaos dwarfs online with some pics of the minis in bare metal form:

These folks have some new stuff that I don't believe is posted here but I popped in to show these wolves they've got coming. I searched and did not see a newer thread for them.. so if I just necro'ed another thread, deepest apologies. Just trying to get news flowing that isn't the same 4 or 5 companies all the time.
The pose is kinda weird and the GW wolf is listed as there for comparison... either way.. wolves seem to be pretty easy money.
Automatically Appended Next Post: I missed the the newer post with the other sculpts.

Those do look cool! However as this thread is 3 years old, it's most definitely a necro
So, please start a new thread if you'd like to discuss the new offerings from Russian Alternative. Thanks!
