"GZG " Topic

I figure just seeing the name GZG in the subject line will be enough for people to assume this is more good feedback, and you'd be right. Aware of possibly sounding like a stuck record, I will be brief…

Ordered 9 packs of 15mm infantry on Saturday.
Order arrived with no problems on Tuesday.

I sent an email to say thanks and Jon replied almost immediately with a very nice response.

The guy is awesome.

But I guess we all know that anyhow.

Between GZG, Khurasan Miniatures, and Rebel Minis I am going to be pretty much exclusively 15mm from now on!

GZG do 6mm too

wink wink

You are a cruel, cruel person…

But in fairness I had already got them listed for my 6mm Imperial Guard army (when I get round to that project!)

:)

He also has the largest range of starship minis on the market, a biggish selection of true 25mm models, and (while they're not to my taste) a steady seller in his "naughty" Gentlemen's Collectibles line. Small wonder he can't find enough time to do much sculpting anymore – doing mold replacement and blindingly fast order fulfillment on a catalog that matches (maybe exceeds?) GW's is quite the task for what's mostly a one-man operation.

Wish he'd grow the business and get back to the sculpting bench, though. Been way too long since FT had a new fleet, and there's lots of room for more 15mm Tuffleyverse figs – ESU, FSE, and NSL haven't had a new fig in years, much less "minor" powers like the PAU, LLAR, Free Cal-Tex, etc.

His summer sale ends Monday, for those who missed the announcement. 15% off on everything across the board, good time to stock up.

Indeed, it was some of the early FF spaceships that were my first purchase from GZG many years ago now.

It was 15mm Free Cal-Tex which formed the bulk of my current order, prompted in part by the sale. I was surprised they got to me so quick as I would have thought Jon would have been slowed down by many people taking advantage of the 15% off!

I have an order in the mail.I had just finished painting 60-odd Halflings and sundries for a buddy. I sent him an email asking him if he would just order a bunch of stuff for me instead of cash.He said "send me your list" and I was off and running.

I am not sure how GZG gets away with his temporal distortion device that he sends his orders through. I am sure that thing has to be a huge drain on the grid.

GZG has some of the best 15mm and 25 mm sci-fi minis out there and that is a pretty high bar given Khurasan, Rebel, Micropanzer, and others. And of course his customer service is top notch. I would say he needs a US distributor but he seems to handle that just fine without one.

Dark secret – you can only achieve temporal acceleration by slowing the passage of time in another locale. You wonder why the last few days of school seem to pass so slowly when you were a kid, or why Friday afternoon takes forever when you're working? That's the price we pay for speedy delivery of our figures. :)

To sell to a distributor you have either roughly double your prices or halve your profit margin. Neither is a good plan. He used to have a licensee in Geo-Hex, but that was many years ago and I suspect even with UK postage he still sees more US profit selling direct than he ever did through the license.

Thanks for reminding me about the sale! I had a few more things I wanted for my Tomorrow's War force but I had forgotten it along the way. Order away!!

Nazrat don't you have enough already???

Almost… 8)=

I've heard that GZG 2.0 will actually ship you the product before you even order it. Yeah. They're that good.
