gets started with Flintloque.
The Salute 2012 show in London will mark the launch of the new AB Figures Waterloo 1815 range. Tony Barton's superb range of 15/18mm Napoleonic miniatures is about to get even better – and if you are attending Salute this year, you can be the first to get your hands on them as Eureka Miniatures will be there.
Tony has been steadily working away on British in Belgic shakos, British Dragoons in helmets, Household Cavalry, Scots Greys, Dutch-Belgians, Nassau and many more since the middle of last year. Here, for the first time, we can provide some details, and you can start ordering these figures right now – either for collection at Salute (with no postage charged), or for worldwide shipping from our Australian base on the same day as the event in London (21st April).

You can place a Salute pre-order for any of the above coded miniatures by going to the Eureka Miniatures website (look for the announcement and update under News & Events.
More pictures and additions to the range will be added to the order pages as we go. Keep an eye on our Facebook and Twitter feeds, or the News & Events column at our website, for further updates. These will soon include the revised AB Figures 1792-98 Austrians and new Eureka Miniatures ranges due for release at Salute.
Australia is, of course, a long way from London. So to guarantee getting your post-free order out to the U.K. in time for you to collect it from the Eureka trade stand at Salute, you must get your order to us no later than the 10th April, please.
If ordering for collection at Salute, please clearly label your order as "for collection at Salute" using additional comments section of the order form, and select the "store pick-up" option to remove the postage element.
Customers not attending Salute can place their orders at any time up to the launch date of the 21st April, and your orders will be shipped the day before the release day (or a few days later, depending on how close to the release day you submitted your request).
