Who makes ECW and TYW figures in 15mm? So far I have Essex, Minifigs and Peter Pig. Must be a few more.

dichelus11 Jul 2011 4:28 a.m. PST

Testudo, Freikorps, Khurasan, Old Glory.
Just to add some more.

Testudo are superb figures from Italy:

In the UK (if you are Pete Dalby is the stockist and all round good chap – his email is at the link above)

If you can wait Khurasin are bringing a range out (Cuirassiers so far) and Vexilla (Martin is another all round good fellow)do another range from Italy – Acies Edizioni.

Not forgetting Warmodelling, a Polish firm available in the UK from North Star, Donnington which has some good stuff in the comprehensive range and the smaller but nice FreiCorps range from QRF.

I have figures from all of the above, including Essex, Minifigs and Peter Pig, all nice. (Peter Pig and Donnington do useful casualties and Peter Pig do some lovely little guns suitable for Battalion Guns)My favourite are Testudo, however there is plenty there for you to look at, not forgetting Old Glory 15mm who also do an extensive range,

and breath!

Tallyu Ho!

Meant the size of figures not the range as in true 15mm as opposed to some of the larger 18mm stuff!!! ooops!

Tally Ho!

GeoffQRF11 Jul 2011 7:02 a.m. PST

I know… but I couldn't resist the opportunity

Paul Hurst11 Jul 2011 7:31 a.m. PST

Geoff, its not your fault that every thread on TMP is a potential QRF advertisement opportunity!

dbander12311 Jul 2011 8:36 a.m. PST

…and don't forget Essex!

GeoffQRF11 Jul 2011 10:15 a.m. PST

Geoff, its not your fault that every thread on TMP is a potential QRF advertisement opportunity!

Precisely. It's a reward for offering ranges that cover so many periods :-)

nickinsomerset11 Jul 2011 10:26 a.m. PST

Well actually on one of my Friekorps figures one of the shoe buckles is slightly too square for the period!!!

And still not seen you at the Yeovil club!

Tally Ho!

Yes, as nick says so far we only have the German kurassiere out:

But we have loads of models coming, tackling at first the early-mid TYW. Stay tuned!

And still not seen you at the Yeovil club

That's because I live near Winchester ;-)

My ECW armies are composed of the smaller (15/16/17 mm) figures and include Essex,Peter Pig,Irregular,Old Glory and Freikorps. However the biggest proportion is made up of Matchlock Miniatures,my absolute favorites.

mashrewba12 Jul 2011 11:46 a.m. PST

Always seems to be a bit of a palaver getting hold of Matchlock but I agree -they're my favourites too
