I just recently found out about these guys only to find that they've ceased trading/taking orders. I emailed them directly but have yet to receive a reply. Does anyone know what their plans are? Has the range been sold? Any intention of returning? Thanks in advance for any info. -B6 |

I wanted to order more so like you I have emailed him a few times with no response. The minis are great, btw. Here's hoping all is well with him and he is able to reopen someday. |

I do recall an announcement a while back, announcing this, but no other details. Would love to see them available again, preferably with the smaller weapons already cast on, as an option. More two-handed weapon options would be nice, too, as would some lizard-men. |
Bravo Six | 18 Aug 2016 7:58 a.m. PST |
Yeah, too bad about them disappearing. Thanks for the info lads. -B6 |

Yes, I'm hoping to pick up some more stuff, some of the Star Command guys also work for 15mm BSG and my stash isn't quite enough to cover both. |

Last time I spoke to the owner of Astro Minis he had sort of moved away from minis production and was enjoying gaming and family time. -Eli |

It has been a while since my last post on TMP and Eli is correct, I have been enjoying family time with my wife and two young sons. Also my gaming interest shifts occasionally (was doing Heroclix and currently starting 30K). Still love Trek and eventually plan to restock my minis, but I am currently in a different cycle of my hobby interest (kind of a walk about if you will). |
Mako11 | 19 Aug 2016 2:17 p.m. PST |
Good for you. Look forward to the availability of your minis again, should you decide to entertain that. You might also consider subcontracting with a company, to have them produce and distribute them for you, for a cut of the profits. Little effort, but some revenue still. |
Bravo Six | 19 Aug 2016 8:14 p.m. PST |
I agree with Mako. Making these available to those of us wanting to support your range, via a third party would be great. I fully understand wanting to devote time to family and other gaming interests for sure. I think our hobby in general is a "get it while you can" because things go OOP so quickly for reasons like this. -B6 |

I third the request to contract out the production! |

For those who are interested, I have listed what I found left in my hobby room on ebay under 15mm Sci Fi. |
FincasKhalmoril | 08 Oct 2016 2:34 p.m. PST |
Sorry, maybe Im getting too tired, but could you please give us a link to your auctions? I cant find them… |
nukesnipe | 09 Oct 2016 4:35 p.m. PST |
Look under 15mm scifi. I purchased two sets. Very much interested in some Conquerers if you find any…. ;-) Regards, Scott Chisholm |
commanderroj | 10 Oct 2016 7:08 a.m. PST |
I just can't find these. I looked on 6/10 and again today under 15mm Sci Fi and I just can't see them. I can't understand why. I would really like some if you have any left. |
nukesnipe | 11 Oct 2016 5:08 a.m. PST |
Commanderroj, Try this: auction Regards, Scott Chisholm |
arngrimson | 11 Oct 2016 5:27 a.m. PST |
waste of time me looking for them as on the link that nukesnipe posted they aren't being shipped to the UK. |
malleman | 11 Oct 2016 12:50 p.m. PST |
e-mail me at astrominiatures at hot mail dot com if you live outside of the US and you are interested. I didn't want to deal with free shipping and international orders on ebay. |
malleman | 14 Oct 2016 4:37 p.m. PST |
If you live in the UK and are interested, now would be the time to contact me to work something out. I have a friend who will be in London on the 16th. |
Logain | 22 Nov 2020 9:40 a.m. PST |
I don't suppose that there are any packs left? Does anyone have some they are willing to part with? Thanks! |
SirFjodin | 01 Dec 2020 12:41 a.m. PST |
Oh no…… I really wanted to buy these minis :( |
FincasKhalmoril | 01 Dec 2020 3:15 p.m. PST |
I might have some models left. Luckily I placed a larger order shortly before he left business, but I cannot make any promises as already then, some codes were not available any more. Could send from Germany. |
Logain | 02 Dec 2020 5:23 p.m. PST |
Thanks Fincas, if you find some that you are willing to part with you could let me know by email: fsnjl at hotmail dot com. Fjodin – they are fantastic aren't they? There are several alternatives on the market, but none that capture the charm of the optimistic 1960/70s sci fi as well as these. |
SirFjodin | 11 Dec 2020 4:41 a.m. PST |
2 Logain – yes they are. Truly TOS style! :) |
SirFjodin | 11 Dec 2020 4:41 a.m. PST |
2 FincasKhalmoril – please if you have some spares contact me too :) :0 fjodin at hotmail dot com |
Yellowstreak | 14 Jul 2021 11:23 p.m. PST |
It seems I just found the perfect 15mm star trek minis (astrominiatures) – and then found they're out of production :( If anyone has some spare they're willing to sell, I'm interested: jrkurosawa at hotmail dot com |
Keifer113 | 19 Oct 2021 4:52 p.m. PST |
I know….man I would love to have gotten these. |
Keifer113 | 26 Oct 2021 6:04 p.m. PST |
So I found Star TRek guys in 15mm!!!!! link |
Logain | 01 Nov 2021 12:23 p.m. PST |
I went with CP models too, painted correctly they look very good. I also picked up a bunch of other figures from Khurasan Miniatures that were also sculpted by Wiff-waff. All together, after some head swaps, green stuff phaser rifles and goatees, I ended up with a good looking proxy force for federation and Klingons, plus some good aliens. |
