"28 mm historical plastic set listing (2008-2019)" Topic

Please find below what should be a relatively complete listing of 28 mm historical plastic sets (including 1/56 vehicles and terrain) released during the years 2008 to 2019.

The list starts with manufacturer abbreviations (item 1), continues with historical kits from ancients to moderns (items 2-14) and concludes with listings of weapons and shields (item 15) and various categories of terrain (items 16-24).

Abbreviation of the manufacturer is in brackets behind the name of the product. Whenewer two manufacturers are mentioned, e.g. (IM -> WG) then the first mentioned is the original manufacturer and the second current manufacturer.

I have originally compiled this list on another forum (Warseer), but due to various issues have decided to stop maintaining it. However, as a final farewell I think it also deserves to be posted to larger audiences – I hope some TMP readers finds this useful.

Should anybody wish to start maintaining a similar public list eg. on their website, feel free to use this as a starting point.

Wargames Atlantic releases missing as are EM4's ACW sets.

Wargames Atlantic releases missing

As far as I know, all of the Wargames Atlantic releases so far have been SF or fantasy, with the first historical plastic set (Persian infantry) to be released in early 2020.

EM4's ACW sets

Fair comment. My understanding is that unlike other eM4 products these two were made in a softish plastic (though I have never seen them live), while my list was intended for hard plastic products – though it seems that I forgot to include the word "hard" here.

That said, I cannot recall seeing any other 28 mm sets done in soft plastic over these years.

The EM4 sets are a softish plastic but fit scale wise with all the others- not too much different to the Hat Industry sets. Fait cooment about the WArgames Atlantic sets- the Irish and Persians are due for release soon.

Good effort with the listing.

Thank you much.

Still surprises me no one's done AWI cavalry. Given the variety of headgear and coat/jacket, they struck me as an obvious choice.

I am rather surprised that there is nothing out there for WW1 yet – seems to me more of a gap then AWI cavalry. Actually all the European wars between Napeolon and Hitler walk out empty…

Thanks, Griefbringer, for keeping that list alive and online!

No one's done Prussian cavalry. I could use some Dragoons.
Thank you for the list!

Still surprises me no one's done AWI cavalry.

I presume that the Perrys either did not consider it financially viable (based on their various sales data) or just have not been excited enough by the subject. Wargames Factory stopped new releases when they sold the distribution rights to their range to Warlord, and I would not really expect the latter to start working on extra plastics to the range.

No one's done Prussian cavalry.

When it comes to Napoleonics, the only plastic cavalry releases so far have been for the the French and British. The same for artillery. Other nations have only had infantry done in plastic, if even that.

__________________________________________________________

Still, it is quite a long list of releases over the years, and this spring should see the 12th anniversary of the Perry ACW release that provided a first taste of the things to come.

I have not even bothered to count the number of entries on that list for a long while.

Excellent work!

I can appreciate how much work you've put in as I've done something similar! Although my listing is 28mm historical figures only, both plastic and metal…

I also appreciate the work and effort put into this list. Thanks!

Puster, Wargames Atlantic is putting out WWI Germans this year.

WG do Plastic Crimean War Russians……….

Griefbringer, I assume everything not on the list is not there because someone thinks sales will be insufficient. That's how business works. I am surprised at the calculation in this instance because it's a relatively common war in this scale, and in this instance a single plastic kit would take the place of maybe half a dozen different regiments cast in metal. Starting from scratch, I'd need four kits, and I don't think I've bought more than three of any historical on the list--or more than four of anything on it.

But both businesses and I have been wrong before.

WG do Plastic Crimean War Russians

To my great embarrassment, I have to admit that I had totally missed that release – but now that you mention it, they are easily found on the Warlord webstore.

That said, the sculpts for these figures were apparently first pre-viewed in Salute 2013, while the actual release seems to have been around early summer 2019. If these dates are correct, then this would be one of the slowest plastic sets to make it from initial reveal to production – though around that time the Perrys also showed some Napoleonic Prussian infantry three-ups that seem to have stalled somewhere.
