RAFM is now out of business, alas!
An I can't find anyone on line with any stock.
So, who else makes it?
The only other source that I know is Old Glory FIW French command pack with ONE figure.

I would prefer the approximate size of the RAFM figures, but beggars can't be choosers.

Wasn't RAFM acquired by someone already?

Personal logo John the OFM Supporting Member of TMP17 Nov 2025 11:17 p.m. PST

Were they? I hope so.
But I can't find them. All RAFM searches go to the original.

Ah. I did another search, to see if anyone had acquired RAFM.
RAFM's molds etc were acquired by Ral Partha Legacy, and were moved to Ohio in late October. 👍
Good news.
Thanks, Bill.

🙄
Ooooh. I shot my mouth off pretty much back in October about that, being a grumpy OFM about pricing that hasn't been announced yet.
I hope my comments turn out to be unfounded.
Won't be the first time… 🙄

Expect the price to at least double. RP has already said that the metal they use costs twice as much as the metal Rafm used.

Some kind soul pointed out Minden to me.

MFC-013 looks compatible.
Minden are 1:56, while RAFM are "true 25mm". 🙄 ("it's not a scale, it's a size!")
Luckily, I have some different Minden cavalry to compare, and I'm happy.

RP using more expensive metal offers no benefit to me. I'm not playing Warhsmmer, where the price is no object.

You used to get a couple in the Old Glory 28mm FIW commanders bag.

I only got one. 🤷

Well, I checked out a unit of Minden that I had, vs the RAFM dudes.
Minden are a full head taller. That's fine on the table, but not in the same unit. 🤷

The Dayton Painting Consortium has them in the old RSM95 range.
