Their webpage has been saying that the webshop is temporarily closed for a while, and now the domain has expired. Anyone know what's going on, and if there's hope the figures will be available again?

Uh Oh.

I never got some of those Feudal/Crusades figs I wanted.

It's a good thing I got all my GNW stuff all in one go.

I know the owner sadly passed away. He was a great gentleman and a pleasure to do business with. I did hear something about a family member possibly re-opening the business, but I don't have any specifics. Alain Touller was also a fine miniatures maker in France who passed away, and his line has vanished from the marketplace as well. Sad.

A number of family members (nephews?) announced they'd keep Legio Heroica alive, and I believe they took orders for a while. But when I actually wanted to buy some earlier this fall they'd put up the "temporarily closed" announcement.

Now the website is back up, still saying "ON-LINE SHOP IS TEMPORARILY CLOSED".

That's some hope at least. Did you email them asking what the issue is?

Maybe they don't have anyone to fulfill orders or maybe they have issues with their casting service.

It was truly heart breaking when the previous owner Giuseppe passed away, he was always the friendliest to deal with, and was a great loss to the hobby.

Hopefully a larger company will take on the ranges!

I was surprised to note that TMP served me an ad for Legio Heroica today. They've been "temporarily" closed for over a year now, so taking out ads doesn't make obvious sense – or dare one hope they're about to finally reopen?

Au pas de Charge27 Jul 2023 7:02 a.m. PST

I hope so. I have the most appalling list of figures I need from that company.

I'm not sure what the issue is. I dont think Legio did its own casting. Lack of enthusiasm, perhaps?
