These are great figures and I have a bunch of them. Looking forward to seeing them back so I can get some more Scots and some Mongols. |

Alas! Historicon and I have both moved, and the distance is too great. But if Thistle & Rose would like to tell me where I can BUY the stuff….? |
| Dervel | 09 Jul 2016 7:43 a.m. PST |
Robert… Sadly they are not on sale yet, but we are hopeful they will be out soon. I have my eye on a Mongol and a Gallic Army after painting up some of the sample figures for this promo. Bill gave me a few more samples of the Medieval line and I hope to do a workbench on them soon. |

Great news. I had several of Jamie Fish thistle and rose armies. Hope they'll be available soon |

So is that a Rude Scot on the unpainted stand with the Irish ladys on it? I want VarhamV; King of kings with escort the most but there are lots more so bring the toys on |

Thanks Rod for posting this. Dragon6, You have nailed it, that is the very disagreeable Scot himself. Varham V will be available along with the rest of the line. No time table at this point, but hopes for an on line presence soon to provide more informatino and progress updates. Enjoy Historicon and the Triumph! tournaments and demos! Bill Hupp

The Irish ladies were the Bell's of Ireland if I recall correctly. Jamie had them sculpted for the good luck my wife and my friends wife gave him at a WRG Tournament. If you know him, ask him about his trip to NJ and playing WRG doing shots of scotch. Xin/Jeff |

I knew Jamie was OOP on the line, but didn't know
it had been sold. Nice figures and good luck with the re-release
of the line. |

Bill,
My pleasure…. Really looking forward to painting more of these figures. Great detail and a lot of unique poses and characters! |
| Battle Cry Bill | 10 Jul 2016 6:55 p.m. PST |
Jeff, They are very nice figures and thanks to your wife for being an inspiration for them. Very reasonable gals with swords. Jamie did encourage us to continue the T&R tradition of barbarian armies that always charge forward and I think we did hear at least a part of the story of the trip to NJ. Thanks to all for the good wishes. Bill |

Bill,
We had a constant flow of traffic all weekend and managed to hand out all the sample packs… and made the winner of the Punic War campaign very happy. The big question from everyone was "When are they going to be available to buy"?????? I told them soon I hope :) Thanks again for the support!
