Ok so the community is pretty much in agreement when it comes to the current eldar jetbikes, the sculpts are pretty under-derailed and have been showing their age for some time now. I'd got pretty tired of this, and decided to go on a hunt for suitable replacements. I found a few contenders, inclusing chapterhouse and puppets war, but I felt these efforts fell short. That's when I stumbled across this guy and his awesome sculpts:
The picture above is of his seer council, although other varieties are available, I decided to go for it and order a full set with a Farseer. I was of course a little cautious, as this was a fairly unknown company (based in Kazakhstan! ) but I thought I'd go for it, and contacted the seller via email. I didn't hear anything back until a week or so later when he contacted me to tell me that my order was ready to ship! He then arranged a payment (via paypal) and my goods were sent. Not only this but I was able to track the parcel all the way, and it arrived within a week of being sent!
If you are looking for some epic models, I really cant rate this company enough, the workmanship and quality of the sculpts and level of professionalism from the seller are fantastic.
A friend of mine recently did a video with my models in, so take a look if you want to see how they look in person.
Ghost is a pretty good company. Clean casts - and pretty quick (normally ship in about 2 weeks). They have a bunch of Eldar stuff (heads, alternate sculpts, fortifications...) as well.
The cost for these varies. I think the solo Seer on bike was going for around $25, while sets of 3 bikes were going for $50 a set. He has some Harlequin style cowls he does too that were $10 or 15 for a set of 4 IIRC.
The full set of 10 with options is something like $175 (includes a warlock and 9 regular or something along those lines).
The email address is ghostminiatures at gmail.com if my memory serves. He isn't really on the down low - images of his stuff have been popping up for a few years now. Much more active on Russian language sites though (along with other great sources - just have to be brave enough to make a purchase from over there).
I can't remember exactly how much I paid, I remember thinking it was pretty reasonable though, especially since all the spears and swords had brass rods in. I'll probably get round to ordering the singing spears too at some point.
A friend at the FLGS shared a link for Ghost Miniatures on our forums. I was a little skeptical, having never heard of them and them being based in Kazakhstan. But it's great to know they are 'safe'.

What currency is that exactly? Ie US$ CAD$ etc? Ta.
Check out my gallery here Also I've started taking photos to use as reference for weathering which can be found here. Please send me your photos so they can be found all in one place!!

USD for me...Granted, CAD and AUD are all in the same ball park right now (give or take 5% or so last I looked).
I seem to recall for a short period of time, he actually had an online store going which had most the kits he did at the time - though that bookmark appears dead now. May just have became a bit of a hassle to keep updating things.
I shot him(them?) an e-mail a few days ago, but haven't heard back yet. Mind if I ask, how was the response time for you all when contacting/making purchases?
