Well, I had actually put this up a couple months ago, but I've been pushed to tell people about it. 300CLUBSF12, Japanese Schoolgirl Vehicle Crew My proposal was for a couple half-bodies to put into hatches, and some full bodies for bogged down and bailed out markers. Come on, let's get this started! |

Japanese School girl Tank Crew sounds generic to me |

Never pledged anything on Eureka's 100/300 club before, do I just order them as normal, or is there a different way to do it? |

Taskforce58, some years ago, when I had Eureka do 25mm Evzones, they asked that I use my credit card to, in effect, pre-order. They had my account number but wouldn't actually charge it until they got the requisite number of figures ordered. Once we hit the magic number, they e-mailed me to let me know and confirm that I was still interested (they probably also wanted to confirm that I still had that credit card!). I suppose I could have backed out at that point, if this had been some bizarre whim or fad. I followed the link provided by Lion in the Stars and spent some happy moments looking around the site to see all the interesting things people think need to be produced. Great fun! I may have to go back and order things. I may have to think up some more things the gaming world desperately needs! Lion: Writing in here and to any other groups you belong to is a good plan. In fact, write in again in four-six months, to get the guys who are on vacation or just forgot. I felt self-conscious doing this for my evzones, but it was what was needed to get them out in front of the gaming (and buying) public and get an economically viable quantity for Eureka to put them into production.

re there any copyright or trademark issues? There shouldn't be any with the project title. There might be an issue with how *I'm* advertising it, but that's not on Eureka's head. |

I don't have a need for any but I think its a clever idea. Good luck Lion! I've had 2 of my own submissions made by them so far and I'm very happy with them. |

I'm in for 20 myself. Same here! |

What scale will these be guys? Sorry if it was obvious and I missed it :D |
CraigH | 12 Jul 2013 11:47 a.m. PST |
What scale will these be guys? Who cares ? If I can get female tank commanders, I'll buy tanks to fit ! Not like you will need very many. Okay, 54mm might be tough

Shudder. Much as I like GuP, this is surely one step closer to minis for Strike Witches. The world does not need that happening. Who cares ? If I can get female tank commanders, I'll buy tanks to fit ! Not like you will need very many. Hinterland Miniatures is your friend, at least in 28mm: link |
TwoGunBob | 12 Jul 2013 8:29 p.m. PST |
There's always Left Hand Miniatures for 28mm
Five more tanks in the pipeline, just completed the Matilda w/ 2 pounder gun but haven't taken any photos except the WIP.

What scale will these be guys?Sorry if it was obvious and I missed it :D Ah, thought everyone knew. '300 Club' is Eureka's 15mm request line. |
Richard Baber | 13 Jul 2013 9:08 a.m. PST |
Lion Thanks Mate, I`ve never dealt with Eureka and didn`t know about their 300 club |
John D Salt | 13 Jul 2013 2:13 p.m. PST |
Given the size of the Hetzer and the Matilda, those are some really tiny schoolgirl commanders. All the best, John. |
Lion in the Stars | 13 Jul 2013 5:46 p.m. PST |
@John D Salt: Well, they are supposed to be 10-12 graders (Japanese High School is only 3 years). I'm sure if I went digging I could find the art board where they show how tall everyone is, but I'd bet on no-one taller than 165cm. |
Thomas Nissvik | 22 Jul 2013 3:08 a.m. PST |
Right, I have done my bit for the cause and joined the 300 club. Panzer Vor! |
