Has anyone had any recent interactions with them? I tried to contact them through e-mail and by phone. The e-mail came back as undeliverable and the phone call had a "this number has been disconnected" recording. |

There's your answer, I guess… |

Randy, Mr. Haggarty has been very ill and is disabled to where he can no longer run the company. Please contact Chris Vonfannenstock at Outland Games as he has the molds and rights to continue on for Mr. H. Chris (recently retired from the US Army) is just getting his casting operation back up and running in Ohio. Not wanting to take away the splash he is looking to make, let's just say that Outland Games will soon be back with a LOT of new items! Chris has been commissioning (especially 20mm) figures from European Sculptors while assigned to AFRICOM and storing them away for when this day arrives. The molds for IE's WSS that GFI was casting for him are all in the hands of Chris. Chris recently confirmed that he has all the production molds as well as some masters of figures that Mr. Haggarty did not get around to releasing. Chris and I have pledged to Mr. Haggarty that his lines of figures would not fall into obscurity! They remain almost unknown to the general public! I was excited to see your post, knowing that you must also realize their quality! I hope this helps. v/r Tom Dye |

Tom, Very sorry to read of Roberts illness. I was afraid something akin to that might be the case. Thanks for your reply and the additional info on Outland Games ownership of the molds. |

I recently heard that RH passed away. I don't know if that is accurate or not. Based on Tom's post, I will assume that it is a rumor based on RH's poor health. Regardless, it is nice to see his molds in the hands of someone who will (hopefully) do something with them. |

I can confirm that Robert has passed away and that his memorial service was a couple of weeks ago. |

Both good and bad news, glad that the figures will soon be available and sad to hear of Robert's passing. |

Sounds like I did get up-to-date news then. Unfortunate, but I know Robert had been ill for a long time. |

I will miss Robert. Chris had told me he was in a bad way, but news travels slowly to Germany. Thanks for confirming his passing. A prayer sent before typing. v/r Tom |

Yes Outland Games owned by Chris has the range now. You can either order them direct from him or if you live in Australia you can get the range from myself. Sieeg Works has just started manufacturing and selling the range down under! We have most of the Swedish and Russian production molds and are waiting on the rest to trickle down here :) Pictures available soon! Cheers Drew |

Bump on this thread; Does Outland have Robert's Austrians from his Revolutionary period line? I didn't see that listed on Outland's web site. Thank you. |
