I was looking to order from Bill Thorton. It seems there is no longer a Footsore USA? Bill was great to deal with and is a great Saga player |

I use this web address footsoreminiatures.co.uk , even when I placed an order with the Footsore USA website it shipped from England anyway. But yes, I can't seem to find the USA Footsore website. I know they went through a couple of name changes and are now War Banner/Footsore. |

My last order the items came from Ohio. That was nice because the transit time was a couple of days. It almost looks like Bill has past into the background of the company. If I recall correctly he was casting in the US. |

From the latest newskletter they are now called Footsore Miniatures & Games. link |

Mr Jones. I have read that before. But there is no explanation of closing the United States store in Ohio. Thanks for your input. |

All of my orders have came from the UK, even though the website said otherwise. |

Here the US store announcement 17 Dec 2017. Hi All Footsore Miniatures are happy to announce the launch of our new website. The new website now has all the old Musketeer Miniature ranges included in the store which, judging from the emails, a lot of you are keen on being able to purchase again. The new website can be found here footsoreminiatures.co.uk [/URL] All ranges are available from our UK factory as of from now. Our US factory will have all ranges available by the end of January when we finish making all the production molds. That said, the original Footsore ranges (Dark Age Irish, Late Saxons, Skraelings and FPW), are all available direct from the US factory now. The new website incorporates an articles section which we will be using to add hobby tips, news and additional ramblings for your amusement. Sign up for our newsletter and we will keep you updated with new releases, shows and other news.
Cheers Team Footsore |

Every time I ordered from the Footsore USA website the package was mailed from England. Bill Thornhill seems to have stopped attending most US conventions, though he might have been at Adepticon this year. |

I believe Tim Spakowski of Kings Hobbies is or will be the new US distributor/point of contact. Also seems like they have discontinued Bills lines of minis? |

I was getting an advert. e-mail just about every week from them for most of the last couple of years, but that has really dropped off to nothing since the "reorganization". I wonder if I'm even on their mailing list now…. |

All the link about Bill Thornhill have bee removed from the Footsore store. Post below is one of them. Sad Bill like I said before was a great person to buy figures from. Looks like he has been pushed out of the company. Bummer. Footsore Miniatures are now being manufactured in the USA! Search domain link
After a lot of hard work Footsore Miniatures are now being manufactured in the USA! We are now shipping your favorite figures from Wooster Ohio throughout The US and Canada. It's been a long process but worth it. After visiting his first Historicon 4 years ago, Bill Thornhill saw that a huge amount of figures were ofte |

Something perhaps happened. The Normans were sculpted by Paul Hicks instead of Bill. Andy and co said Bill was working on something of his own. I don't know what that means. Maybe it was just not what the UK guys wanted at the time. They are 2 separate business entities but I really don't know how that works for them with sharing of IP. |

Anyone know when the Pictish chariot will be available? I thought it was released at the start of the year but doesn't seem available to order. |
