Hi guys im slowly building my greyhawk wars monster forces.Im trying to source hobgoblins and various orcs and goblins. Im wanting to use khurasan hobgoblins and the orcs as goblins, but i cant find the hobgoblins listed on their shop also has anyone got any pics of the orcs in comparison shots. Regards james |

I don't think the hobgoblins have actually been released yet. |

They haven't. They didn't make it to the front of the release schedule this year, partly because the lizardmen didn't take off, and partly because I was hanging onto them until either the flesh eating apes or the giant boar cavalry get made. I may just get them out early next year though, once people have some cash again. Our orcs are classic small hunched over guys from the fantasy books and gaming of my childhood, not the lantern-jawed mini-ogres of 1980s+ wargaming. Hobgobs on the other hand have always been massive and ours are too -- they match the 7+ foot lizardmen in height. However, as the generals in Orc tribal forces could have select bodyguards of the biggest, toughest orcs, we've had some of those made and these great orcs are ready to release. Will get them out after the post-holiday pauper period is over. |

Khurasanminiatures – have you ever thought about doing some type of pre-order where ppl could commit to so many packs and then if a threshold was met you would then produce them? You have so many cool minis and this might help gage the difference between ppl who "like" what you have and the ppl who will actually buy them. Hobgoblins are on my list too. |

Good idea Redroom. A bit like a self-contained KickStarter. I know that GMT Games did or do something similar when considering a reprint of a game. I'd imagine the administration might be tricky and also might be a bit of a tease in terms of what "might" but "won't" be coming out… |

In the TMP tradition of answering the subject line… It depends. If you did goblins before the hobgoblins, then orcs after them. If you did orcs first, then goblins after the hobgoblins. And if you did the hobgoblins first, then a dinonsaur with a howdah for the hobgoblin crew comes after. |

Thankyou mr khurasan! Well il just have to wait but im pretty sure you guys have the best if not only hobgoblins in 15mm i would of released them before the lizardmen. Yes as the biggest fan of mr angus mcbride, your orcs do his art true justice! Also your war trolls are the reason i dropped all my 28mm lotr and have gone 15mm. I thankyou for this!!! So il be doing a big order soon. Regards james |
