Have decided to stow my cold war project and convert it to Afghanistan. Would like to buy some QRF taliban but postage was high on my coldwar stuff. Scale creep is listed as a distributor but there website doesn't show any taliban.
Anyone know if Scalecreep will carry them in the future?

Thanks

Joe

The easiest and most accurate thing to do is ask Mark directly. Only he can tell you if he plans to stock them, or when his next order is going out so he can special order them for you.

Send him an e-mail, he has been great to deal with in my experience.

I suspect he can probably special order for you, though I'm not sure that'll really save you any money, since the shipping costs still have to be paid, regardless.

Mark orders quite regularly. Essentially we can bulk ship and he then charges you domestic rates (I believe) so you should win out.

Thanks. Was actually hoping Geoff might know if there was a shipment on the way. Guess not. Wish I lived in England again now!
Will check with Mark.

Thanks

Ah, we have this illusion of me having eyes on to everything that comes and goes, but in reality I live nearly 60 miles from the factory. Mark would be best placed to tell you if he has an order being processed, or is about to send us one.

Geoff,

Say it ain't so!
I actually e-mailed Mark and haven't heard anything. Will order from you and hope it evens out. (My paypal account is in pounds)

Thanks

Joe

PS Have you ever thought of a mixed bag of RPGs and grenade launchers? In doing skirmish I would not think most people would need 8 of either.

Wonder in Mark is away – he's usually quite active on here. I'm not aware that we have an active order in the factory at this time (i.e. Chas says they have been busy after the sale, and with TSS tiles, but hasn't mentioned it)

Not thought about it (as then we get people saying 'can I have just RPGs as I dont want the grenade launchers'). It's partly to do with casting efficiency – I generally make 3 different poses, so you get a random mix in a pack of 8 (should be 3/3/2) but if we get miscasts it means we can easily still make up a pack of 8 with some variation.

With 4/4 we are looking at needing to get almost 100% casting with no defects to ensure we meet it, but if others would prefer it I will discuss how we might do it with Chas.

Other than that, order a pack of RPGs and add to the order notes a request to substitute 4 of the figures with under-barrel grenade launchers. Sarah sould accommodate it.

Joe Legan27 Feb 2015 6:33 p.m. PST

Geoff,

Thanks for the answers. Understand now about the 8 figures. Will request the 4/4 if you don't mind but don't want you to lose out on any money.

Cheers

Joe

Mark has an order with us now, if anyone wants to add to it!
