What about CMoN? Id hate to see the range disappear. I've heard nothing but good things about the company and their miniatures and I had always meant to use some of their bits in future projects.

**MLaw**

According to the Pig-Iron FB page they've started "the process" (several hours ago that was posted). It's vague but I think we've not seen the last of these miniatures. I really just want to see them go to a company that's going to be around and that has the resources to not have to abandon them after a year or two.

**Miguelsan**

I'm going to have to order a few heads and minis asap. I have more IG that would love to have more of the gasmask heads.

**Ahtman**

I always liked their line. Sad to see them go but hope the best for them.

**Nocturnus**

I have a bunch of their infantry and 3 of their vehicles. The older infantry are pretty basic but the newer ranges, System Scavengers, etc. are awesome. And their vehicles are huge!

**Charax**

Oh wow, I guess I just kinda assumed Pigot Iron would always be around

Gonna have to bulk order some heads before March!

**OrlandotheTechnicoloured**

Order early they're not restocking anything so with the announcement expect stuff to sell out fast

**Panic**

Yeah,
Items are disappearing pretty fast from their website.

The delivery is super fast! Got these in two days!

100x more doom team helmets!

Panic...

**Frankenberry**

Man, this sucks total ass.

Meanwhile that douchebag Chapterhouse guy is STILL getting orders, even after proving he's a flake.

Either today just sucks or there's a giant cosmic imbalance.

He made a post in another thread stating that he's busy with a real job and that Chapterhouse is more on the side or something these days.

Almost like some mysterious force sucked all the joy out of doing models in support of GW games....

I wonder what that could have been?

PLEASE let's not turn this into yet another I hate chapter house thread.
Thank you.

Now, moving on. I love pig iron stuff, have a bunch of their bits here and there. Will see what I can pick up.

I thank them for being proactive and alerting the community, and with them the best in all their future endeavors

Yeah, that's what drove my 'douchebag' and 'flake' comment.

It's a shame Pig Iron is going away - guess I need to dig into the savings and finally place that order I've been meaning to make for months.

Also, I don't hate Chapterhouse, davethepak, I hate the cosmic injustice that is this situation. PLEASE stop telling me what I can and cannot do.
Thank you.

**Wehrkind**

Man, I used SO many Pig Iron heads years ago in my IG army, as well as my Lost and the Damned. Such great bits, I am really hoping they transfer to another company, and that the Pig Iron folks get a good return on it, because they totally deserve it.

General warnings:

Rule One = Be Polite

Rule Two = Stay On Topic

Calling people douchebags and flakes is not acceptable. Any more CH posts here will be deleted.

Thanks.

**pongo50**

Will there be a restock for "Kolony milita"

I need a platoon

with support weapons?

**MLaw**

According to what I've heard the actual PI store won't be restocking.. if you find their stuff at places like Warstore or Noble Knights or wherever you might luck out..
Hopefully whoever the mystery group or person taking over the product line is up and running soon

I managed to get in my order when the announcement went live and they shipped it the next day. All things considered, I was surprised by that. I imagine they're quite busy with life and all the panic orders they're receiving at the moment.

**Shadow Captain Edithae**

Dang, Ive been wanting their Rebels and Ferals for This Is Not A Test (Fallout) for a while now but held off due to unemployment. Hope they're in stock.

I'm in that exact situation, but then with their tanks!

**Shadow Captain Edithae**

Most of the Rebels and all of the Ferals are sold out.

Wayland Games says they're "available to order" but I've not heard anything good about Wayland. Do they actually have it in stock, or are they going to mess me around for months? Are they trustworthy?

Really want the Ferals and Rebels for Fallout themed Raider, Tribal and Mutant warbands in TNT.

The Ferals...Children of Atom, anyone?

**Warzone Resurrection**

Damn, I remember buying their stuff long time ago, maybe we could take over their line and make it from resin under some IP agreement?

**kronk**

I bought some from the warstore before they sold out. I was looking at them for project 4 on my list, but I bought them before they were gone. Too bad. They made good stuff.

Wayland will be expecting to order them from Pig Iron so if they don't have stuff in stock they're not going to get it now

but from the sound of it somebody (or several somebodies) is going to pick up the lines so hopefully they're going to become available again elsewhere

**Shadow Captain Edithae**

A search for Pig Iron miniatures on Ebay just brings up Peppa Pig.

**Miguelsan**

I had been holding to buy the Militia command until I got my cannons to use as crew for Krieg artillery batteries and now they are gone. :(
I hope the IP deal gets trhough now!

**krazynadechukr**

Pig Iron did say on their Facebook they are in the process of selling the business to someone.... Might not be over after all...

Thanks for the clarification. I just placed an order for some of the System Trooper heads (the ones that are out of stock on the Pig Iron website), thinking that "available to order" meant "in stock". I have contacted them about cancelling my order.

**Valhallan42nd**

I don't know if the people from Pig Iron are reading this, but if they are: thank you for such a great product! You made my guard auxiliary really stand out, and added a ton of character to otherwise faceless hordes!

From the Facebook page:

Hi everyone.

We've been totally blown away with all the positive messages and posts we've seen over the last few days. It means a lot to us to see how much you guys like the products and the service we've offered over the years.

Regarding stock levels at the moment we've sold out of quite a few items on the website since we announced the closure.

On the plus side we're expecting some show stock being returned this week from Shaun at 'The Bunker'. Plus our last delivery from Griffin is coming in to fulfill a distributor order but there is bound to be some extra packs left over.

This means we'll be adding some stock back onto the website, unfortunately, we won't know what it is until we get it in our hands.

Another positive note: we're currently discussing options about the range continuing with a number of parties at the moment - more news at it happens.

Once again, thanks to everyone who have supported us over the years and the recent good wishes.

Cheers Simon and Lisa

**Shadow Captain Edithae**

Just put in an order for several head packs and the Kolony Feral Blades unit as thats all thats left of the Ferals.
