Do the ladies represent some story, like that of Molly Pitcher at Monmouth Courthouse in the United States? Rather nice figures, by the way. Grelber |

These sound really interesting but I could not find them on the website. Then it dawned on me……Elite Wargames and Models is not Elite Miniatures I'm guessing……the latter has that huge range but, curiously, so many of them are gazing skywards, which might have been fine in 1940 or 1944 but………. These are in a totally different style. Can you direct us further? |

So is that the only way to get these? Does Elite Wargames and Models enjoy a separate existence, as I suspected, but not have any way of ordering directly? |

So would they not be wise to reconsider their trading title, at what clearly is a very early stage in their venture? Great figures and novel ideas. Why invite this confusion?? |

These are great figures had seen them at warfare in reading . Had to buy the gun crew and a trench that works great for fow. I was told by the tall chap their is a website coming just after Christmas as it was to be up and running a week before the show in reading but due to their web person having personal problems it couldn't be done. these guy's need a break deadhead as it's not probably their full time job and have family's too. I have got a couple of Spanish females they do off eBay and it was a smooth transaction no problems . Also remember some of these small manufacturers don't all have deep pockets to splash out on websites straight away I remember going to shows and only able to buy from a trader if they was their or make a phone call to place a order well before the days of the internet . |

Good point…….I did not appreciate it was small scale thing in its infancy. Well, if so, they are off to a good start. Good modelling and casting and imaginative work. Indeed you are right. I suspect few producers of such "niche" figures can make a fortune from their labours! |
