the only places that sell for MSRP that i've found are amazon and other such mainstream sellers. most of the smaller sellers seem to discount by at least $5.

**Smokestack**

Wonder if this head from the digital set made it on the sprue. I can quite tell looking at the sprue as there seems to be two heads at a different angle on the sprue.

Not True.

What's not true? You sell wga for MSRP, so no discounts, so my statement that WGA stuff isn't discontinued much online seams to be accurate.

As for what I buy Modiphius plastic kits for it's very much true as I own most of the fallout line from them and I have bought plastic kits of theirs for between 40-60% off MSRP.

I sell full box items at a 15% discount. It's automatic at checkout. As is written in several different places on my website.

I'm guessing some of the price difference is that these are 32mm kits. Unfortunately there is just enough off with this kit (like the ties) that this will be a pass.

Modiphius charges $55 for 10 plastic 32mm fallout minis with 2 being power armor and that includes the Bethesda tax and tarrifs so this kit is surprisingly expensive at $8 cheaper for slightly less stuff that's also less detailed (cheaper molds).

"Cheaper molds" LOL. Gee, I wonder who makes the Modiphius plastics?

Well, anyway, two Quar "tractors" and the Operators modern boys are up on pre-order now. And posted up some other updates on various stuff:

The Damned

Fulfillment is about to start up for the US while the last mold is en route to the UK and we're organizing the injection schedule over there. For those who missed out, once we get into fulfillment we'll have our first Damned products available for pre-order including a lovely little army box with a great mix of frames along with the Mauler! Damned backers should transition to following along at our Release Schedule page and here in our articles as we wrap up the project on Gamefound.

From the New and articles update titled "Grab bag of Updates"

From the same article.

A New-ish Way to Design Our Figures

When I first started Atlantic I used a variety of freelancers to sculpt our models (many of who became full time employees with us). As such we never really settled on a "house style". By this I mean a system whereby all the historical models were the same proportions and generally designed in a similar way. Working with Rob Macfarlane and Thieu Duong and the team over the last few weeks we've put in place the foundation of our house style going forward. We've just started the first plastic sets that will incorporate these elements and consistency and I'm looking forward to telling you more about it. I'll try to do so in the next few weeks once we have some good examples of the new figures and I can put together something a bit more visual. I think the kitbashers out there will especially like what we're up to!

New Sets in the Works

Lots of new ones in the works right now with additions being made to the Decline and Fall range, Blood Oaths, Renaissance, the World Ablaze WW2 range, Classic Fantasy, First Empires, Age of Reason, and more. Our goal in 2026 is to start significantly fleshing out the older ranges while we continue to support the Quar game, Barons' War, Classic Fantasy Battles, and Death Fields Arena. I'm hopeful that once these US Customs issues are behind us we'll be able to really ramp things up.

**OrlandotheTechnicoloured**

The Damned shippping began this morning in the USA

The US pledges have begun shipping.
I am delighted to let you know that we have begun shipping out all of the US pledges.

You should receive an email with tracking once your pledge has been packed and booked in with the shipping company.

We hope that you enjoy your models when they arrive and can’t wait to see customised and painted Damned models on your gaming tables!

Production has begun in the UK now and as soon as it is all complete I will be back with another update to confirm shipping for the rest of the World.

and apparently an army box is planned to be the first general release when it (and the rest of the world shipping) is done

I mean I'm glad. I was one of the people calling out for Modiphius to use WGA last year because you have your act together and their Chinese partners really didn't (plus working with people that have production in the same country has to be all around easier).

But molds for them have been more expensive as the details they've been putting in their plastics (near resin levels) has caused them massive delays and reworks/iteration on the mold to get something that works and that adds up to be quite expensive in the long run. To that effect they're moving away from that level of detail so it doesn't take 2 year to get a single mold done.

And yet their still cheaper then this not trech crusade kit for what someone would be getting figure and options wise. I like your kits and will keep getting them but that doesn't mean an absurdly stupid price point compared to ... Yourself is something to not be commented on. Your LOL is kind of embarssing there and more or less a self own.

Fair enough on your prices. I was on mobile and saw no sign of any discounts when looking through your store.

**RustyNumber**

Are the halflings "true size" like the existing ones they do? Compared to the mantic ones that are really dwarf sized.

Is it? I always enjoy reading things like this. So many folks think they know how all this works but they really don't. Most of the companies not actually doing their own manufacturing don't know how most of it works to be fair and say some "interesting" things about tooling and production. And there are also a whole lot of companies that do know how it works and scatters a bunch of disinformation around. Anyway, whatevs.

I'm pretty sure the mounted ones are the same scale as the foot ones, as the product description states pieces from both sets can be kitbashed together. Eventually I'll buy some and confirm but I don't have any yet.

EDIT:

This hard plastic box set allows you to build up to 10 cavalry models equipped with sword, lance, javelin, and even jousting lances along with numerous accessories and five types of heads (80 in total!) This set is fully compatible with the previously released Halfling Militia set which will allow you to create mounted bowmen and more!

**KidCthulhu**

Just got an email about new Quar tanks...

https://wargamesatlantic.com/products/coftyran-chyweethl-tractor
https://wargamesatlantic.com/products/crusader-ailthean-tractor

I'm not sure how big these are, but they come one to a box for about $45USD. I'd like to see them side by side with the Fidwog Infantry set that comes with ~~six~~ twelve guys and two smaller tractor tanks for $10 cheaper...

WGA has suggested that they're compatible with the haflings.
If you'd like to see them alongside other Halflings I did a review a while back.
https://www.chicagoskirmishwargames.com/blog/2022/09/cheap-sprue-review-wga-halfling-militia-and-a-classic-hobbits-roundup/
They're a good size, but they don't size up terribly well with any other lines. They're closest to LOTR, for which they would probably work in the same army if kept in their own units.

And yes, the Mantic ones are crazy big. Really silly that Mantic launched a whole line of Halflings and couldn't even get the size right.

**KidCthulhu**

I also took a halfling comparison photo a while back, but for a different model line:

The unpainted ones are Midlam, then left to right is Reaper, Scotia Grendel, Oldhammer GW, and then finally WGA.
I think they're great and mix well with my collection.

That's a great shot! A bunch of lines I didn't have in my review and your selections are a much better match size-wise. Thanks for posting it!

**Racerguy180**

Just got my damned Damned are preparing for shipping.

Im so damned excited I might have damned myself in the process.

**lord_blackfang**

Damn, I would love to have mine...

**legionaires**

I got a notice as well. Curious to see how a kitbashed Quar tank would fit into the Damned

legionaires wrote:

My thoughts exactly. The second tank shown in the thread looks like a good option since that track layout is similar to some digging/construction machines, so it could easily be one of those built in the field technicals made by Chaos worshippers.

**lord_blackfang**

The obvious MBT choice is the Archon Wolverine tho

Not a bad choice, but I've never been wild about the Wolverine. I think for Quar or for the Damned you want something a bit different., if you're leaning toward 40k aesthetics the longer body and more rounded track aesthetic could help set it apart from more contemporary designs. Dr Spork's 28/30mm renditions of classic Epic 40k tanks fit the bill a bit better I think. More Char, less, Leman.
https://cults3d.com/en/design-collections/Doctor-Spork/sci-fi-vehicles

Taking a different tack, for non-damned quar, the ultimate for quar might be the OOP Akuyaku 1 GO (Bad Guy #1) Kit.
https://www.hlj.com/1-72-scale-bad-guy-akuyaku-1-go-all-crew-set-w-20-pig-crew-figures-tactg-2
Technically it's 1/72, but it's more than large enough for 28mm, espeically with a couple hatch swaps.

Lastly, if you want to embrace the towered Quar architecture aesthetic, the Warmachine "Hammerfall Siege Crawler" is pretty cool.

Technically OOP, but not hard to find at reasonable prices.

I have both of the above kits, but they're not built as-yet. The Crawler was bought with Quar in mind, but I'm undecided whether the Akuyaku would be better for Quar or Squats.

Exciting! Make sure to share some pics when they arrive, those of us in Europe can at least live vicariously through those for now...

Though not entirely sure what I'm going to do with mine when they eventually arrive, as the project I originally had in mind has been somewhat overtaken by events (new 30k edition), ah well.

**Racerguy180**

Mine were for 30k but since 3rd dropped im done playing "new" games. Now I'll just play oldhammer where they'll fight on in Slannesh's name.

I will totally post pictures of the heapin' pile o' sprues and their constituent minis as soon as I get 'em.
Looking forward to getting this Emperor's Children project fully underway.

**Eilif**

The army I purchased them for (Additions to my IG force, now used in Grimdark Future) is still present and in use, but I'm realizing that I never am able to field that force (Several thousand points) in it's entirety, so should I really be adding to it?

Still going to hold onto the Damned stuff though as my army doesn't presently have Artillery, Ogryns and Rough Riders (the units I got) and they would be very nice additions...

**Ohman**

Haven't seen this box mentioned yet.

Spoiler:

**Daba**

These will be pretty handy for sprucing up some terrain pieces, though six coultrons is a lot.

**Geifer**

That's neat. I can put a box like that to use.

**lord_blackfang**

That's a sexy sexy sprue

McDougal will do brisk business selling single sprues to folks like me who don't necessarily need 6 cauldrons
