Wargames Factory is a new, investor-backed hobby games company that is launching an extensive line of hard plastic 28mm (Wargames Standard 1/56 Scale) multi-part historical miniatures.

The first releases will be Late Republican Romans (Julius Caesar's Legions) and Celts. The miniatures will be available in 48-figure box sets for $29.95 USD, and will feature a variety of separate arms, heads, shields, and body types for maximum customization. Later releases will be packaged in additional configurations. Complete ranges of miniatures for specific historical periods are in development.

Wargames Factory CEO Tony Reidy describes the focus of the company: "Wargames Factory is about creating the highest-quality miniature figures in plastic for wargamers, collectors, painters, and modelers. We will be producing an extensive line of armies from different historical periods - all in hard plastic - which is extremely modeling friendly. All of our development and manufacturing is done here in the United States. We use 100% recycled plastics and partner with a wonderful organization called Triangle - a non-profit focused on "people with ability." We're excited to bring a new kind of product to wargamers everywhere, and we welcome you to visit us at wargamesfactory.com and tell us your thoughts and what kind of products you'd like to see!"

"We have a number of exciting projects in development now - some that we will be announcing shortly and others that will be revealed over the coming months. Stay tuned for some exciting times!"
