I just found out about the site Ultraforge Miniatures when searching for alternative models for a Nurgle army, the problem is how do you order from them?
They have a yahoo email listed on the site but it doesn't work, when reading the descriptions of the models I get the impression that the company has either been taken over by someone else or the original sculptors have died somehow and their sculpts have been taken over by a new company.

Are they still in business? How can you get in contact with them?

I found this picture on another forum and it was said it's a miniature from ultraforge but I have not seen it for sale anywhere. Where can I buy this model? Any european webstore that sells it?

As far as I recall Ultraforge is no longer producing models.

I cannot comment on European webstores that still carry their products but there is a webstore in the US that sells them and still has the "Nurgle" model that you are interested in:
http://www.thewarstore.com/product45589.html

They are even running an additional 5% off on orders through January 4th, so that might help offset shipping if you decide to order.

Didn't someone look into these two a while back.

I've a nagging feeling about them planning on producing figures via a shopfront that they aren't running themselves.

I could of course be utterly wrong.

Just took a look at thewarstore, Ive never liked them because of their postage costs. It would cost 45$ postage for the 4 models I want while from ultraforges website it would cost 14$ for the exact same models.
thewarstore does offer a slight discount on the models though, guess they want to make that back on their postage costs...

1.) Ultra Forge was silent and non-functional for about a year now.
2.) Recently they have reworked the website http://www.ultraforgeminiatures.com/?p=1 , but the shop is not yet active. Seems they will reenter business.
3.) The Great Unclean One is not featured on that website, so probably won't be sold again due to copyright reasons. But a smaller Nurgle Daemon Prince is still on.
4.) Search the internet incl. ebay for people/stores selling Ultraforge products.

Doubtful.
The Warstore is pretty upfront about things. If they're charging you $45 for shipping, I'd wager that's what it's costing them.

They do pop up on ebay from time to time. I was after a Nurgle Daemon Prince and the Ultraforge ones were listed for roughly £30 + P&P

Extremely doubtful. International shipping from the US is always ridiculous, even when it's just going from Canada to Mexico. Blame the postal system, not the Warstore.

The Warstore may have a small discount, but you can only put Ultraforge products on a wishlist there, not buy them currently (out of stock), so this discussion is purely speculative.

The shop at Coolminiornot.com sells Ultraforge. Not the one in the first post, but they have two other "Nurgle" sculpts.
