Does anyone know what happened to the old Qualiticast 20mm Nam range? Who has the masters? Who has the moulds? Its such a shame it disappeared as it was well sculpted and a pretty concise range from what I remember. I had hoped someone would have brought this range back from the dead by now. |

Found this old TMP discussion from 2005, but hoped someone had more updated info. TMP link |

Looks like I asked this same question ages ago. I'll blame it on age. ;) Sorry Bill. TMP link |

Bravo 6, I had been wondering the same for years and have given up. However, now that Elheim has expanded its Vietnam line, I think I can live without the Quality Cast line. Elheim still needs US platoon HQ figures, but they are as good a quality in my opinion. Also their US have no rucksack or flak just like the Quality Cast. Thus they are great for aero rifle platoons of 1/9th. Tom |

This is just my opinion, but the Elhiem sculpts are quite similar in style to FAA/Qualiticast. This is particularly true of the faces. |

I have both and they mix very nicely. |

Good call on Elheim gents. They do indeed remind me of Qualiticast figures. Their VC/NVA range need some AAMGs and crews and more updated pilots, but aside from that the range looks good. |

Bravo Six, you can also quite easily commission Elhiem to produce the sets you need. |

I would take them back if offered |

Hey Bravo 6, UnderFire miniatures now carries the 20mm figures we had commissioned back on the old FoF forum. I think you can have them make new commission figures as well. |

Thanks Darby! I'll have a look. I did finally get my Elheim samples and I have to agree with whats been said here that they are close in look and quality to Qualiticast miniatures. |
