Hi

Ive noticed that the Foreign Legion range is no longer listed on Redoubt Miniatures homepage – I wondered if any of my learned TMP colleagues might know why? I have emailed them several times but had no reply to my messages!

thanks

Most likely the molds are worn out.
My last buy from them was disappointing.
The mold lines were prominent and the figures mis-registered from the mold not aligning.
Sad as their products are still nice.
Cheers

Yes sadly it does not appear that Redoubt is keeping up their molds or remastering them. Which is too bad as they have many wonderful lines.

Could they have been temporarily retired for remoulding?

thanks guys – no idea as they never respond!

Spoke to them at Partizan today. The FFL moulds are on their last legs, so they've withdrawn the range from sale, but will cast to order if you're prepared to accept a load of flash. Unlikely to update them in the near future – not enough demand for a niche subject compared to things like their FIW , AWI and ACW ranges.

Hope this helps

I got these in the nineties and thought they were a great range.
