I've seen several threads where people ask what happened to Tengu Models. The good news is they're still in business. The other good news is that, in order to launch new ranges, Tengu sold their popular Grey aliens and various zombie sets to CP Models, so they're back in production.
Greys now cheaper than before – £2.00 GBP per figure
The zombies too are now available at £2.00 GBP per figure too, and less for sets. From here: cpmodelsminiatures.co.uk Hope that helps out all of you who've been searching in vain for these figures this past year! |

More of these ranges are coming onsite right now, according to the CP Models frontpage – including this astro-suited Grey:

That is good news. Thanks for the information. I am a big fan of the greys and am certainly glad to see that I still have an avenue to buy more if I feel the need:
I have about 30 more that will be converted… but I have enough walkers for another 30-40 troops so I am glad that the range hasn't disappeared :D! |

Man, that is an awesome set-up you have there! Excellent convertions. What is that grav-skimmer that the grey overlord is riding on? Nice piece of kit! |

The skimmer is an old, metal Eldar grav platform for one of their heavy weapons. I just stuck a plastic counter on the top, added a couple of pins for control and stuck the leader on… sorted :). But you can get why I love the greys so much now, can't you? |

Totally. In fact, Mark at CP Models emailed me to say he's got some precasts of the stuff not onsite yet, so I'm adding that Grey leader to my order, too! I may have to 'borrow' your idea and mount him on an ant-grav device too. Maybe this hover board from Ramshackle games:

The leader in my image is a conversion. I have swapped the standard head for a squidfaced helmet from a Crossover Miniatures Supervillain: link That hover board looks like it would make a cool transport though :) |
