Dropped an e-mail to Wildly Inspired and found my address was for the prior owner, who does not know where the new owners went to. The website says "reopening early 2004" - anyone know what's going on? Mark "Extra Crispy" Severin Owner, Manager, Janitor ScaleCreep.com Author, Webmaster, Whipping Boy DeepFriedHappyMice.com

Extra crispy, be careful! They got me for $100.00+ a year and a half ago. I wanted some TTG napoleonics and he said that he sent them twice and that there was nothing he could do to help me. I never got the figs. I have ordered from England many times without incident. I would still likew to get some TTG napoleonic French if I can find a source.

Not to worry - no plans to order, just wondering. I was updating deepfriedhappymice.com and wanted to get the latest. I've asked Dave if there's any connection between WI and the new TTG....

Put me down for $200 USD plus also ! I guess a few of us are mugs. Let's say dead, gone and good riddance. I know where you work..... Cheers Tony - NZWM

Here's what Alan Warren of Table Top Games had to say when I asked if there was a connection between TTG and WI: "I am not aware of the name. The range was originally esigned by Brian Ansell (of Games Workshop etc) for Bob Connor of Tabletop Games who died last year. He had sold off the range a few years ago to Chad Games in Cardiff, who broke up and left one of the group,Matthew Drayton, to carry it on as Tabletop Miniatures until he decided to take a three year sabattical to concentrate on teaching. That is what I know on this side of the pond!" Schiltron: I've ordered samples from Alan for deepfriedhappymice.com If you want, drop me a line and as soon as I have the figures, I'll send you photos so you can see if they're the figs you're looking for. Also, I've got a handful of TTG French for sale over at scalecreep.com - just look under "Flea Market Singles" Cheers, Mark "Extra Crispy" Severin Owner, Manager, Janitor ScaleCreep.com Author, Webmaster, Whipping Boy DeepFriedHappyMice.com
