I don't believe anyone does anymore.

GZG provides excellent service internationally though. Frequently faster than domestic suppliers, in many cases.

Nobody. You have to order direct.

Try Chimera Hobby shop.

chimerahobby.com

He had a boatload of Full Thrust stuff marked at half price a whie back. He doesnt have a web shop but may be willing to hook you up via email

Or you could try iSoldit.com – he often has great deals on lots for auction there or through ebay :)

GZG is very fast shipping to USA and reasonable prices . There are many many testamonials here on TMP.

A note on buying existing stock from US stores. Many of the factions have had models resculpted and the newer ones look much better (in my opinion).

The older ones might be in stock at some places. best to ask first, especially since some of the class names haven't changed. But then again, if you like the old sculpts, this may not be a problem.

Covert Walrus13 Jun 2009 8:22 p.m. PST

Umm . . Jay, I think you'll find ALL the class names have changed for the new model FT ships from GZG. For example, there is no new sculpt Furious class in the NAC . . .

Where did you get that information from might I enquire?

@ the Walrus:
Good old faulty memory. I had no intent on doing any research myself, instead relying on my spurious argument to either be taken as spoken or immediately discounted.

Either way, if the OP buys more GZG models, the better.

Covert Walrus14 Jun 2009 3:04 p.m. PST

Jay, I would agree on the latter argument:)

richarDISNEY15 Jun 2009 7:44 a.m. PST

Just buy direct. These guys are great and fast!

And I agree with that statement of richarDMB; It takes Jon at GZG about 5 days to get an order to me, and I live almost exactly halfway around the planet from the guy.

WillieB17 Jun 2009 12:08 p.m. PST

I believe Jon has an actual spaceship to deliver his goods.
Lightspeed fast!

It is well known that UFO sightings in Belgium often occurs two or three days after an order was placed. :-)

We sell Power Projection: Fleets, which is a FT-derived rule set, and Traveller fleet scale and RPG scale spacehip miniatures at our web site.

Actually I wouldn't say nobody, I handle GZG merchandise at a couple of conventions every year, and probably have the largest stock on hand of anybody in the US.

Unfortunately that isn't saying much, as to the best of my knowledge I'm the only person regulary obtaining merchandise for resale in the US at this time!

Most notably I am a vendor at the GZG ECC annual convention in Lancaster, PA (late February). I am also going to be at travelercon this year as well (Mid October).

I occsaionally bring materials to a couple of other local Cleveland, OH area events.

As indicated previously Jon Tuffley is very good to deal with, and I would anticiapte no problems should you want to deal with him directly.

Note I will take specail orders for pick up at any events I'm attending, but if you want older stuff, I can no longer order most of it for resale, although last time I checked Jon was selling off the last of it to direct custumers. I also have a number of copies of the original printed rules available for FT and some of the other GZG games, something Jon doesn't even have any more.
