IWM is now producing the miniatures for Mongoose. They are working on getting back order fulfilled but first need to basically remould everything.

They say it will be two months before new stuff shows up on their website.

Mongoose is still selling the books and producing new ones but are not creating miniatures

Ah, so it's IWM's re-moulding that is the bottleneck right now?
Good to know, thanks.

Well one could also say it was Mongoose running their moulds well past their prime :-)

That was my impression too. I think it is excellent news that IWM are able to pick up the line after Mongoose making a pigs ear of it. The molds were definitely deteriorating- some of the detail and flash on recent EA stuff I bought was really bad.

Thanks to IWM at least the figures will still be readily available and hopefully the game wont die.

Cheers

James
