AWESOME - thanks everyone! As always, the community comes through for Onslaught! I'm sure a solution will present itself.

Just so you know you mr D. I think your prices are very fair almost cheap. I would definitely pay 10$ a pack and still feel like I got good value for my money.

Hope things work out with a new caster! Your line is one of the best in 6mm scifi IMHO.

What Borka said, and I should know, I just ordered some of your stuff

/Fredmans

I too hope you and MWG can sort some thing out. Though I'm on a huge 6mm fantasy binged right now, next year is my intended year to update everything I own for epic- which I was hoping very much to have included the sisterhood.

What with this news, and the trouble troublemaker games had with mis-priced plastics from factory, now may be a golden time for 6mm, but I think that casters and factory's are cash in on this golden age, but only looking at it in the short term

It is sad to see this happen. I do hope you manage to sort something out Deacon as I plan on getting my hands on plenty of your stuff.

Thanks guys! I've been contacted by quite a few casters over the past 24 hours and things are looking promising!

On a happier note, I have the avians, they'll be available next week, and the OTC tank samples look AWESOME. I'll post pics as soon as I can.

I really hope things work out for you--I just placed my first order and am really looking forward to the next few waves (especially those tanks).

Thanks!

No, TANKS! (groan) ;0)

I hope it all will work out. I for one would gladly accept a price increase, especially since European distribution is sorted out. And once again, I am baffled by the level of support this forum seems to deliver.

I'd reiterate that your prices don't seem excessive given the quality. Shipping is currently a killer* but if made available through EW i can see me making some small purchases in the short term and possibly and army or two for me or a friend in the medium term.

What i would say from a business model stance is that you currently have a number of "part" ranges. I get the impression there are a number of people waiting to see how the whole army looks before parting with their cash. Imho it would be worth filling out a couple of ranges asap meaning you might get in some significant orders. You can then expand the number of ranges in time by raising cash based on an established income. Hobby-butterflying is fine as a hobby but not a great marketing strategy (i know it sounds like work eh !? )

Hope you can keep it up!

* Though i have just realised you're in Florida not Melbourne Oz !

True in my case, at least. I know that the OTC range is going to look great, but I've been holding off shopping until I can order a complete army.

Perhaps Deacon is a victim of his own success here If I was in doubt as to the quality of the product or the reliability of the vendor, I'd be more inclined to make small test purchases. With the OTC, I see no reason to not just make one big purchase..

Good news sounds promising.

yeah

I don't have the money spare to drop on an onslaught army just yet, but if i did, i'd still be waiting on seeing the full OTC range before i buy it. I know there are plenty of things I would buy quite happily right now, but there's no point buying half an army, as i prefer to paint everything in a big spurt, and waitin allows me to combine shipping.

Finish the OTC and maybe the Avians, and I'm pretty certain you'll see people like me making fairly big orders. Finish the Stygians, same deal. these new ladies? probably not as much, but I'm sure i'd get a few things. Frogs, perhaps.

but yeah, I havent ordered because there isnt the full range yet moreso than any price considerations. If i was floating in cash, I'd probably make a Tank order pretty soon, but even my planned Tank Army wants light vehicles, and maybe aircraft to assist.

In other news, I have recently acquired a quite nice little Tau Aeronautica Imperialis army, and seeing what you've got in the aircraft department would be a big help in my decision about maybe splitting it up and selling it off like i did my ground force.
