UPDATE - MONDAY 19th AUGUST 2019:

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT - re COLOURS...

I wanted to let everyone know about this as quickly as possible after the decision had been made and the show organisers informed - sadly, we will now NOT BE AT COLOURS (NEWBURY) THIS YEAR....

I have been all booked and ready for it, but a combination of circumstances and events beyond my control have made it impossible for me to attend this year, which is a big disappointment - I really hate having to cancel attending any show, and letting down both the attendees who expect to see us there and the show organisers who put a lot of work into the event.

All being well, we WILL be back at the show in 2020 - and this year we will still be at SELWG (Crystal Palace, London) on the 20th October and WARFARE (Reading) on the 16/17th November - so I hope that most of the people who were hoping to see us at Newbury will be able to make it to either Crystal Palace or Reading.

 

The good news is that I will now have a little bit more time to get some more new releases ready, so there should be more new stuff out for SELWG and WARFARE than there might otherwise have been!

 

Thanks for reading,

Jon (GZG), Tuesday 13th August 2019.


UPDATE - FRIDAY 9th AUGUST 2019:

GETTING CAUGHT UP AT LAST - LOTS OF ORDERS DISPATCHED THIS WEEK....

Another VERY busy week of casting, packing and dispatching a great many orders - I'm ALMOST through the backlog of orders from the Special Offer week, there are just a handful still to be done which I hope to get cleared over the next couple of days - so if you're still waiting on one and haven't yet had an email about its dispatch, please rest assured that I've nearly got to it and it will be done very soon.

As soon as all the outstanding orders from the Special Offer period are completed, I will get to the (thankfully smaller) number that have come in since the offers finished - then I can dive straight into the production of more stock ready for COLOURS.....

Oh, and just a little heads-up - I've now got some more stock of the acrylic FT Course/Arc rings, so they should now be available to order once again on the store - if you want one (or more), get them while stocks last!

Thanks for reading,

Jon (GZG), Friday 9th August 2019.


UPDATE - FRIDAY 2nd AUGUST 2019:

A QUICK HEADS-UP TO AVOID ANY CONFUSION.....

Earlier today I did a little bit of "housekeeping" on the store system, cancelling off a whole bunch of old orders that had been left as "pending" (open, but unpaid) on the store, some dating right back to 2017.... Because the store sends an automated email out whenever I change the status of an order, this means that quite a few people got emails today telling them that an order they had started to create had been cancelled - those that have contacted me directly about this have all been answered personally, but for anyone else who has received such an email today: please rest assured that it is not a mistake (or a scam!), and it does NOT refer to any current order that has been paid for and is awaiting processing. I cleared the old ones off the system simply so that they didn't keep showing up as a mass of uncompleted orders, and to help me to better keep track of the actual "live" orders.

My apologies if this caused any confusion and worry for anyone today!

On other matters, I'm steadily working through the big pile of orders left from the end of the Summer Offers - a LOT have shipped out this week, but there are still a lot to do, and I will probably still be working on them for the whole of next week. So far I have got the majority of the 15mm orders done and shipped, this weekend I will start to tackle the mostly-FT orders, so if you've got an order in the works that is mainly for FT Starships then thanks for your patience - I will be getting to it as soon as I can.

Thanks for reading,

Jon (GZG), Friday 2nd August 2019.


UPDATE - SUNDAY 28th JULY 2019:

SUMMER SPECIAL OFFERS ARE NOW CLOSED, THANKS FOR ALL YOUR ORDERS!

OK, it’s now just Midnight on Sunday 28th July, so the Summer Specials are now CLOSED - many thanks to everyone who got their orders in over the last week, and I will of course be dispatching them all just as soon as I can.

Please note that there has been a HUGE reaction to the offers, and although I have been working as fast as I could all week there is still quite a massive pile of orders here to be done - very possibly the largest number of orders I’ve ever had in during a Summer Offer - realistically, they will certainly take me all of the coming week, and quite probably well into the next week as well before I’m completely up to date with them all.

If you wish to place any orders in the next week or so, do please be aware that I won’t even be able to make a start on the until all the offer-period ones are cleared, so there could well be a significant delay - 1-2 weeks AT LEAST - in dispatching any new orders. Once things are a little less frantic and I’m getting back up to date I will let everyone know with another update posting.

Of course, once the order dispatches are up to date then I will have to start making as much stock as possible ready for the Autumn batch of shows, starting with COLOURS at Newbury Racecourse on September 7th - less than six weeks away now! More news on preparations for that a little nearer the time.

Thanks for reading,

Jon (GZG), Sunday 28th July 2019.

UPDATE - FRIDAY 26th JULY 2019:

 

PROGRESS UPDATE ON SPECIAL OFFERS AND STUFF....

 

Just to let you all know how things are going, especially for those of you who have placed an order this week. As expected, things have been VERY busy with the Special Offers running, and the huge number of orders have co-incided with the amazingly (for the UK) hot weather here - as I'm sure you can imagine, running a casting machine and slinging molten alloy is not the best fun in these temperatures, and there have been a couple of days this week when getting any production done at all has been pretty much impossible - but I'm working steadily through the pile of orders (concentrating on ones I could fill 100% from ready stock on the worst days), and while I will clear them all as fast as possible I hope everyone will understand that there may be some dispatch delays.

 

Please remember the Sale Offers end strictly at 12:00 MIDNIGHT on this coming SUNDAY, the 28th - and for those of you not in the UK, note that is Midnight UK TIME - so if you don't want to miss out due to time differences, please don't leave it till the last minute!

 

Thanks to everyone who has ordered so far, and to those of you still planning your orders - and rest assured I will get your miniatures to you just as soon as I possibly can.

 

 

Thanks for reading,

Jon (GZG), Friday 26th July 2019.

UPDATE - SUNDAY 21st JULY 2019:

 

SUMMER SPECIAL OFFERS NOW ON!

 

Our 2019 SUMMER SPECIAL OFFERS are now LIVE on the store, and will run for ONE WEEK until 12:00 MIDNIGHT (UK time) on next Sunday, 28th July.

 

The main part of the Summer Special is a SALE DISCOUNT on our most popular ranges - 15% OFF all STARGRUNT 15mm (SG15 codes, all V15 vehicles and accessory packs, TW15 and MG15 codes etc), 15% off all individual Full Thrust Starship codes, and 10% off the Full Thrust Fleet Pack Deals. The discounted sale prices are highlighted in RED on the relevant product listings, and will be applied automatically to all orders - no special voucher code is required at checkout.

 

There is NO minimum order value to qualify for the special sale prices - they will apply even if you are only buying one single code.

If a particular item does NOT show a sale price in red, then I’m afraid there is no special offer running on that item at the moment.

You may, of course, freely mix sale discounted and non-discounted items in the same order - just click on them as normal and the store will apply the relevant prices.

 

 

The second part of the Offer is a little extra because I’ve just turned 60 this month! Every order placed during the Offer period from now until next Sunday that totals £60 or more (total order cost including shipping and VAT where applicable), will get an EXTRA PACKET OF FREE STUFF included with my compliments! As with my regular pre-Christmas freebie bags, this will be strictly MY selection of extra stuff, but I will ensure that it fits in with the general theme(s) of the items you’ve purchased in your order, so that you get stuff you can actually use. 

Again, you don’t need to do anything or enter any kind of special code - I will simply included the free extras with all orders that meet the qualifying amount.

 

 

So, feel free to place your orders anytime you are ready - I will do my best to keep up with order turnaround times, but please note that things may slow a little if I get VERY busy, and that any orders that contain things I don’t have as immediate ready stock may take a day or two longer as I will have to cast things up.

 

 

Thanks for reading,

Jon (GZG), Sunday 21st July 2019.

UPDATE - SATURDAY 20th JULY 2019:

 

NEW ITEMS update....

 

As promised, I’ve just uploaded the latest batch of NEW codes to the store - the main release is SIX more packs of the all-new-sculpt NEW ISRAELI HARDSUIT ASSAULT INFANTRY, including SAW gunners, Marksmen/Snipers, Special Weapons, SHVAM missile gunners, Comms/Observers and VRF Gauss MG teams!

Also just listed on the store for the first time are several items that have techically been available since SALUTE earlier this year, but that I hadn’t put up for mailorder until now: two new KRA’VAK ship designs for Full Thrust (the Escort Cruiser and Patrol Cruiser), and the new “D” variants for the V15-135, 136 and 137 Aircars - these add an extra propulsion system option to the previously-available variants, a set of flush-mount grav systems that give the vehicles a more “streamlined” appearance than the external grav-plate or grav-module types.

 

 

FT 457   Escort Cruiser - UNDIA reporting codename KIRIN.              £4.20  inc VAT (£3.50 ex VAT)

FT 478   Patrol Cruiser - UNDIA reporting codename KORMA.            £4.50  inc VAT (£3.75 ex VAT)

I’ve put all these up tonight as a bit of a preview - they ARE all available to purchase immediately, but as I will be posting the details of the Summer Special Offer tomorrow you might want to wait for that before actually ordering them!

UPDATE - SUNDAY 14th JULY 2019:

 

A BIT OF A CHANGE OF PLANS (AGAIN)....

 

A further update on what’s happening, and another change of plans - my intention had been to run the Summer Specials for the coming week, but over the weekend I’ve had a bit of a re-think. Please bear with me while I explain some stuff, so that you all know what is going on. I have been acutely aware for several months that I needed to do some major re-organising of my workshop and casting/mouldmaking areas, including swapping over casting machines again (my “spare” machine has just come back from being re-conditioned, and I need to put it back into position so that I can start using it) - this pretty much means moving everything out and then back in again, with a lot of clearing up and sorting of stuff to be done at the same time, a job that is going to take several days at the very least. 

 

In addition to all the workshop re-organising work, I also want to be able to get enough new stuff into production BEFORE the Summer Specials start - so that you’ve all got a bigger selection of new codes to order!

 

 

Taking all that into consideration, here’s what I’ve now decided to do: this coming week, I will be doing all the clearing out and re-organising of my workshop, to give me a better working environment and make it easier for me to keep up with things - I will also be getting the rest of the new moulds made so that there is a good sized batch of new releases ready to go. I had considered actually shutting the store down for the week so that I don’t get any orders in to deal with while I’m trying to do all the other things, but I never like doing that if I can avoid it - so the store will remain open in case you ABSOLUTELY MUST have something right now - I’d hate to hold up anyone’s project!

BUT, of course if you feel you can hang on just a few more days then you’ll be able to take advantage of the Summer Offers…..

 

 

THEN, around NEXT weekend (sometime between the 20th and 22nd), I should have everything all up and running again and be able to announce the NEW RELEASES as well as starting the SUMMER SPECIALS - which will then run for (probably) about a week, finishing just before the end of the month.

 

 

I’ll keep you all updated on progress with further news posts here, so please check back here later in the week….

Jon (GZG), Sunday 14th July 2019.

SUPPLEMENTARY UPDATE - SUNDAY 7th JULY 2019:

 

IMPORTANT INFO ON FT FIGHTER PACKS!

 

Some IMPORTANT NEWS on the FULL THRUST ranges: for a while now I’ve been planning some major upgrades to the FIGHTER miniatures in several of the major FT fleets - I will be replacing many of the current fighter packs with all-new designs, using the latest 3D-printed masters in the same style as the recent new Kra’Vak minis. I will be announcing the availability of the new fighter designs in due course, any orders placed UNTIL I announce the new versions will be filled with the current minis.

 

When the new-design types are in full production I will be removing the old versions from the store to avoid confusion, though they WILL remain available as special-order requests (time permitting) for anyone who wants to complete existing forces of them.

 

 

Jon (GZG), Sunday 7th July 2019.

UPDATE - SUNDAY 7th JULY 2019:

 

MORE NEWS ON SUMMER SPECIAL OFFER....

 

When I wrote the last update a couple of days ago, I had planned to run a Summer offer this coming week - then I realised that by doing that, it would mean that this week (which contains my Birthday) would just be very busy! So, I’ve had a little bit of a re-think on it - what I’m going to do is to start the Summer Special Offer sometime around NEXT weekend (the 13th/14th), so that I can free up a few days this week to actually get out and enjoy myself! I will still be working at least part of the week, so any orders that are placed will go out as normal and I hope to also be able to get a few moulds full of new stuff ready for you to buy during the special offer period.

 

Later this week I will post full details here of the Summer Special Offer - I’ll also be posting the details of the next batch of new releases.

 

 

Thanks for reading,

Jon (GZG), Sunday 7th July 2019.

UPDATE - THURSDAY 4th JULY 2019:

 

HAPPY 4th of JULY!

 

All best wishes to our US-based customers today, hope you all enjoy your day of celebration!

Somehow, June seems have just disappeared without me realising it..... and now we're into July already, and my Birthday is coming up next week - this year it's a big one, one of those milestone numbers that makes me realise just how long I've been doing this. I can't let it pass un-marked, so next week I will be doing something special here on the store - please check back here again in the next day or two for details of exactly what it will be, and also some news of the next round of new releases.

More details very soon.....

 

Thanks for reading,

Jon (GZG), Thursday 4th July 2019.

SUPPLEMENTARY UPDATE - SUNDAY 19th MAY 2019:

 

FT TEMPLATES and BAGS OF DICE!

 

In addition to the 15mm new releases in my earlier update today, I've just put a couple of miscellaneous items up on the store: Acrylic Course/Arc Templates for Full Thrust, and some big bags of colour-coded dice for players of Stargunt II and Dirtside II.....

 

FULL THRUST ACRYLIC COURSE/ARC TEMPLATES:

 

A laser-cut clear acrylic ring template for measuring course directions and firing arcs in all your Full Thrust games - clearly marked with the twelve course directions and six weapons fire arcs, complete with a useful handle - just hold the template ring centred over the ship miniature for easy and accurate course changes and to judge whether your target is within your firing arc.

I have been selling these at shows for a while now, but not had them available online due to only keeping a small number of them at any time - I now have enough in stock to offer them to online customers too! Overall ring diameter approx. 140mm, material 3mm clear acrylic.

 

 

FT Template  £6.00 inc. VAT (£5.00 ex VAT)

 

 

STARGRUNT/DIRTSIDE BIG BAG OF DICE!

 

As players of our SGII and DSII rules (or any other rulesets derived from the “FMA" mechanisms used in those games) will know, the games are playable with just a couple each of the five polyhedral dice types - but it’s very much easier if you have a larger number of dice available to hand, and easier still if those dice are colour-coded the same as the different Quality Levels used in the games!

I have for some time stocked small numbers of the “correct” colour-coded dice and sold them in basic sets of five - but for those of you who want them, I can now offer BULK BAGS of FIFTY dice - ten of each type - at a very good discount rate of just £18.00 per bag inc. VAT (£15.00 ex-VAT); that is a 25% saving compared with buying ten basic sets!

 

In the BIG BAG OF DICE you get FIFTY high quality UK-made inked solid-colour polyhedrals in the following types/colours: 10 x YELLOW D4, 10 x GREEN D6, 10 x BLUE D8, 10 x ORANGE D10, 10 x RED D12.

 

 

SG/DS BigBagOfDice £18.00 inc. VAT (£15.00 ex VAT)

UPDATE - SUNDAY 19th MAY 2019:

 

NEW 15mm RELEASES UP AT LAST!

 

It has taken a lot longer than I planned, due to a number of things going on that have been outside my control (both business-related and in Real Life) - every time I thought I'd found the couple of days I needed to do all the photos and descriptions of the new items and get them up on the store, something got in the way - but at long last all the new 15mm releases from SALUTE are finally up on the store and ready to order! There are still a couple more items to be put up later in the FT Starships and some other lines, but this is most of what you've all been waiting very patiently for.....

Just click the orange links on each new item code to go straight to that item in the store, or take a look at all the new items featured right at the bottom of this front page!

 

First, we have the latest British Lunar Force (BLF) codes for the 15mm MOONGRUNT range - FOUR different Moon Buggy variants plus a pack of seated passengers to fill them:

 

MG15-BLF04   British Lunar Force (BLF) astronauts, seated - contains 6 seated troops (four with rifles, two with rocket bazookas) PLUS two bonus driver figures, all with optional backpacks. £3.00 inc. VAT (£2.50 ex VAT)

 

MG15-BLV01   British Lunar Force (BLF) Moon Buggy, 1-2 seat version. Multi-part kit for one six-wheel buggy which can be assembled as either a two-seater or a single-seater with a cargo bin behind the driver. Includes one driver figure with optional backpack. £4.50 inc. VAT (£3.75 ex VAT)

MG15-BLV02   British Lunar Force (BLF) Moon Buggy, 4 seat version. Multi-part kit for one six-wheel, 4-seater buggy. Includes two crew figures (driver, plus rifle-armed passenger) with optional backpacks. £6.00 inc. VAT (£5.00 ex VAT)

MG15-BLV03   British Lunar Force (BLF) Moon Buggy, 6 seat version. Multi-part kit for one eight-wheel, 6-seater buggy (2 crew seats in front, inward-facing benches for 4 passengers in rear). Includes two crew figures (driver, plus rifle-armed passenger) with optional backpacks. £7.20 inc. VAT (£6.00 ex VAT)

MG15-BLV04   British Lunar Force (BLF) Moon Buggy, 8 seat version. Multi-part kit for one eight-wheel, 8-seater buggy (2 crew seats in front, inward-facing benches for 6 passengers in rear). Includes two crew figures (driver, plus rifle-armed passenger) with optional backpacks. £7.50 inc. VAT (£6.25 ex VAT)

 

 

 

Next up, some very useful generic support weapons items for the 15mm vehicle ranges: towed-mount and truck-mount manned gun systems in twin heavy autocannon and quad autocannon versions; the truck-mounts are ideal for putting in the back of almost any flatbed vehicle of your choice, and the towed mounts (which may be assembled in either travelling or deployed mode) will look great behind any of our recently-released jeep and light truck ranges.

 

 

V15-155A Twin heavy autocannon mount on towed chassis

Kit contains alternative parts to assemble one model in your choice of either travelling or deployed mode, plus 2 alternative gunners in cap and generic helmet. £4.50 inc. VAT (£3.75 ex VAT)

 

V15-155B Quad autocannon mount on towed chassis

Kit contains alternative parts to assemble one model in your choice of either travelling or deployed mode, plus 2 alternative gunners in cap and generic helmet. £4.50 inc. VAT (£3.75 ex VAT)

 

V15-156A Twin heavy autocannon on truck mount  

Kit contains one weapon system with mounting plate to fit on flatbed vehicle (or fixed installation) of your choice, plus 2 alternative gunners in cap and generic helmet. £3.00 inc. VAT (£2.50 ex VAT)

 

V15-156B Quad autocannon on truck mount

Kit contains one weapon system with mounting plate to fit on flatbed vehicle (or fixed installation) of your choice, plus 2 alternative gunners in cap and generic helmet. £3.00 inc. VAT (£2.50 ex VAT)

 

 

 

Now, a beautiful little civilian vehicle that will go especially well with our SG15-X04A and X04B "Free Trader Crew and Passengers" packs:

 

 

V15-147 Civilian Utility Skimmer  £7.50 inc. VAT (£6.25 ex VAT)

A wonderfully detailed all-metal kit of an open utility hover-skimmer, typical of many such civilian workhorses used on colony worlds and often carried as a dirt-side transport vehicle by Free Traders and similar starships.
 

Please note there are quite a few parts in this kit! Produced from some excellent 3D design work by MMG, it goes together extremely well, but please study the pics carefully to see where everything fits.

Supplied with “flight” stand plus alternative deployed and retracted landing feet, with two alternative civilian driver figures (male and female).

 

 

 

Then, last but by no means least for this batch of new items, the first two packs of ALL-NEW-SCULPT New Israeli (NI) Heavy Assault Infantry:

 

These are all-new figures, still in a similar style to the older NI Hardsuit Infantry (packs Z06, Z07 etc) but with greatly improved posing, detail and most importantly just a little bit larger; the original Zxx code figures were quite early releases in the SG15 range, and were always a tiny bit short in comparison with some of our other 15mm lines - only by about 1mm or so, but enough for some people to comment on - so with the start of this new redesign we’ve taken the opportunity to rectify that and bring the range up to the level (quite literally in this case) of our more recent sculpts, not only in height but also in fine detail. The overall design style of the figures is still very much in keeping with the older versions, however, and it is perfectly possible for those of you who already have units of the earlier designs to incorporate the new releases into your force as Heavy Infantry in Assault Hardsuits.

These new figures are also the first 15mm troops we have produced where the actual infantry personal weapons - and not just the heavy support weapons packs - have been cast from 3D designs, though the actual figures themselves are still traditionally (and superbly) sculpted to ensure that they retain all the style and character of our other 15mm forces.

 

The initial sample release comprises two different packs of riflemen; the rest of the range (SAWs, support weapons, Command, heavy weapons teams and so on) will follow soon.

 

 

SG15-Z31 NEW ISRAELI (NI) New-sculpt Heavy Assault Infantry - Rifles pack A (8 figures, 2 each of 4 poses) £3.00 inc. VAT (£2.50 ex VAT)

SG15-Z32 NEW ISRAELI (NI) New-sculpt Heavy Assault Infantry - Rifles pack B (8 figures, 2 each of 4 poses) £3.00 inc. VAT (£2.50 ex VAT)

 

There will be a few more miscellaneous items uploaded very soon, please check back for the next update.

Thanks to everyone for your patience over the recent weeks, there will be many more new items to come over the Summer months!

 

 

 

Jon (GZG), Sunday 19th May 2019.

 

............................................................................................................................

 

 

UPDATE - SUNDAY 28th APRIL 2019:

 

ALL BACK TO NORMAL NOW!

 

The casting machine is fixed and back in service, I've caught up with all the outstanding orders and it's now business as usual again - so I've just turned all the categories in the main menu back on.

 

Now that I can once again produce whatever stock I need, over the next few days I will be uploading all the NEW RELEASES that I launched at SALUTE earlier this month, so please check back for full details of them very shortly.

 

Thanks to everyone for your patience and understanding during the few weeks of down time.

 

 

 

Jon (GZG), Sunday 28th April 2019.

 

............................................................................................................................

 

 

SUPPLEMENTARY UPDATE - MONDAY 8th APRIL 2019:

 

Further to the important announcement earlier today, please note that I have just SWITCHED OFF (temporarily) the parts of the store that relate to those ranges that I normally cast to order, and therefore am unable to produce while the casting machine is being repaired. Those ranges (all 25mm, 6mm, 2mm and some parts of the FT ranges) will now not appear in the main menu to the left. Please don't panic - they WILL be back as soon as I have the machine up and running again....

 

As explained in the update below, while I currently have stocks of MOST of the items in the ranges that are still accessible from the menu, there may be a few empty drawers here and there - so while I'm happy to take orders and fill them wherever possible, there might be some items that I have (or soon will) run out of; where that occurs I will contact customers by email on an individual basis to see if they would prefer a substitution, refund or simply to wait until things are back to normal.

 

 

Thanks again to everyone for your understanding.....

 

 

Jon (GZG) - Monday 8th April 2019.

UPDATE - MONDAY 8th APRIL 2019:

 

VERY IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT:

PLEASE READ BEFORE PLACING AN ORDER!

 

Well, SALUTE is over and done for another year - a tiring and very busy day, but great fun with the best sales total for several years - thanks to everyone who came along and bought something from us, and thanks of course to the South London Warlords for organising yet another fantastic show.

 

 

So that was the good news…. now a bit of less good news - while finishing off the very last of the stock casting in preparation for Salute, I began to have some mechanical problems with the casting machine! It was probably the “least worst” time it could have happened, because if it had occurred a week previously then I would have had huge gaps in the stock for the show and no new stuff to take along…. Anyway, the thing is that it is now out of action and needs to go away to be fixed. I HOPE that this will not take more than 2-3 weeks, but of course I can’t be 100% certain until the repairers have diagnosed the exact fault and obtained any necessary parts.

Despite the good sales at the show, I only actually ran out of a couple of things so I do still have reasonable stocks of most of what I took along - the major FT fleets and most of the 15mm ranges - but until the machine is repaired and back with me I cannot produce ANY of the items that I don’t normally hold in stock - which means the more minor FT ranges, all the 25mm, 6mm and 2mm. Of course, anything that I run out of stock on won’t be able to be replaced until I have the machine up and running again.

 

 

I did consider simply shutting the store down for a few weeks and taking a break, but in the end I decided to leave it open for orders IF people still want to place them - any ones that I can fill from the stock I have available will be processed and dispatched as usual, but anything that contains items I don’t have to hand will be dealt with as quickly as possible once everything is back to normal.

 

 

So to summarise, THERE MAY BE A DELAY OF UP TO SEVERAL WEEKS ON DISPATCHING ORDERS; please bear this in mind when deciding whether to place an order now, or wait a while till I let you know that everything is OK again and back into full production. If you want to know whether any particular items are currently in stock for immediate dispatch or not, then please feel free to email me at the usual address (jon@gzg.com) with a list of what you want - I can tell you whether it is available from stock, on a strictly first-come-first-served basis.

 

I do have a number of orders in already that I was planning on casting and dispatching immediately after SALUTE, which I will now be unable to do until the machine is fixed - I will be contacting all customers affected by this directly by email to explain the situation and options available.

 

 

Thank you all in advance for your patience and understanding while I get this little problem sorted out - hopefully normal service will be resumed as soon as possible!

Please check back here regularly, I will be posting any progress updates as I have them.

UPDATE - THURSDAY 4th APRIL 2019:

 

ALL READY FOR SALUTE!

 

Just about ready to set off tomorrow for Saturday's SALUTE at ExCel in London Docklands - hope to see lots of regular and new faces there!

I have some NEW RELEASES ready for the show, so please come and see us early if you're going along - the new items will only be available in limited numbers.....

 

 

We are on stand TD01 on the Salute plan you can download here - as you come in from the queuing hall at the side, turn right towards the back of the show hall and we’re on the end of the second island of tradestands.

 

 

 

Hope to see lots of you in a couple of days’ time….

 

Thanks for reading!

Jon (GZG), Thursday 4th April 2019.

UPDATE - SUNDAY 17th MARCH 2019:

 

SALUTE on APRIL 6th!

 

Less than three weeks now till SALUTE at ExCel in London Docklands - our biggest show of the year, as most of you will already know.

As usual, there is a huge amount of stuff to be done before then - building up stocks to take to the show, as well as doing some NEW RELEASES to launch there - so while I will be doing my best to keep up with most mail orders as well over the next few weeks, some may inevitably take a bit longer than normal; thanks in advance for your understanding and patience on any delays that may occur.

 

 

We hope to see many regular and new faces at the show - we are in just about the same location as last year, on stand TD01 on the Salute plan you can download here - as you come in from the queuing hall at the side, turn right towards the back of the show hall and we’re on the end of the second island of tradestands.

 

 

There is still time to get any PRE-ORDERS in for collection at SALUTE, but I would ask that you PLEASE get them to me no later than Sunday 24th March so that I have enough time to prepare them for you, especially if they contain any items that I don’t normally hold in stock. Show Pre-Orders may be emailed over to me (Jon) for payment on collection, or if you want to save some time at the show then you are welcome to pre-pay for them - if you want to do that, then please place them like normal orders through the store and enter the word COLLECT (in Upper Case) in the voucher/coupon code box at the “view basket” step; if you do that, then click the “update basket” button, that should REMOVE the Post and Packing charges from the order total, so that you can make payment just on the value of the goods.

 

 

For those of you who don’t see us regularly around the shows, a quick reminder of what we do (and don’t) bring with us: I try to bring as much stock as possible of the 15mm lines (SG15, MG15 and V15 codes), and of the “major fleets” of the FT Starships. 

What I DON’T bring to the shows (due to lack of space both in the van and on the tradestand!) are any of the 25mm figure lines, the 6mm and 2mm ranges, and some of the more “minor” FT fleets (the IF, NI, OUDF, ORC and Ravagers in particular).

If you want anything from any of those ranges, then you MUST pre-order them so that I can cast them and bring them along for you please!

 

Also please note that if you want any multiples (say, more than two) of any particularly large items such as the bigger 15mm vehicles, the larger Starship classes etc, then it is a very good idea to pre-order them too - I can only bring a few each of some codes as I can’t fit any more in the stock drawers, so we can easily and quickly sell out of some things at big shows like Salute. To avoid disappointment, if you haven’t pre-ordered then please try to get to us as soon as possible after the show opens!

 

 

Hope to see lots of you in a couple of weeks’ time….

 

Thanks for reading!

UPDATE - THURSDAY 24th JANUARY 2019:

 

The first NEW RELEASES of 2019!

 

The last few weeks have been pretty busy with filling orders, but I always try to get something new out before the end of January for those of you who have been waiting to redeem your Discount Codes..... it's been a bit of a rush, but with a week still to go before the vouchers expire I've just about made it with some more new KRA'VAK SHIP RELEASES for FT, and three new packs of MOONGRUNT 15mm figures - the first of the British Lunar Force contingent!

 

So, for the new type Kra'Vak fleet we at last have the FIGHTERS - FOUR different variants - plus the new big SUPERDREADNOUGHT (SDN) and HEAVY CARRIER (CVH) minis!

 

All Fighter packs contain 6 fighter minis plus new-type acrylic fighter "spider" mount and plastic stand.

FT 441   Kra'Vak new-type Standard Fighters (6) - UNDIA Reporting Codename KAMI        £1.80 (inc VAT)

FT 442   Kra'Vak new-type Strike Fighters (6) - UNDIA Reporting Codename KALE       £1.80 (inc VAT)

FT 443   Kra'Vak new-type Interceptor Fighters (6) - UNDIA Reporting Codename KELT       £1.80 (inc VAT)

FT 444   Kra'Vak new-type Heavy Fighter/Bombers (6) - UNDIA Reporting Codename KUDU       £1.80 (inc VAT)

 

FT 467   Kra'Vak new-type Superdreadnought (SDN) - UNDIA Reporting Codename KEYSTONE           £14.40 (inc VAT)

FT 469   Kra'Vak new-type Heavy Carrier (CVH) - UNDIA Reporting Codename KEROSENE                  £14.40 (inc VAT)

 

PLEASE NOTE: There will be pictures of the assembled miniatures uploaded as soon as I have had the chance to put the display examples together! The current photos of the unassembled miniatures are just there to allow me to get these new codes up on the store as soon as possible.

 

PLUS, for the 15mm MOONGRUNT range, the first three packs of the all-new BRITISH LUNAR FORCE - armed security troops from the revitalised British Space Programme, dispatched to protect the UK's bases and industrial installations on the Lunar surface in view of the opened hostilities between the US and Chinese forces.

This new force will be expanded in due course with some Moon Buggies (4, 6 and 8-seat variants, plus cargo version) and other packs - but for now, we have two different packs of laser-rifle armed figures and one pack with Rocket Bazookas; these troops are wearing somewhat "retro-styled" spacesuits which may bring back memories for those gamers of "a certain age"....

These new figures are all supplied with separate backpacks, but these are strictly optional - the back of each suit is fully sculpted with no mounting hole, so the backpacks may be fitted or not as preferred; each suit has small chest- and shoulder-mounted environment and atmosphere packs which can sustain the wearer for relatively short excursions without a bulky backpack.

Of course these figures will also make excellent generic spacesuited troops for many other types of game or setting, adding to our already wide variety of suited figures suitable for hostile-environment or vacuum combat!

 

MG15-BLF01       British Lunar Force spacesuited figures with laser rifles - pack A (6 figures as 2 each of 3 poses).      £3.00 per pack (inc VAT)

MG15-BLF02       British Lunar Force spacesuited figures with laser rifles - pack B (6 figures as 2 each of 3 poses).      £3.00 per pack (inc VAT)

MG15-BLF03       British Lunar Force spacesuited figures with Rocket Bazookas (6 figures as 2 each of 3 poses).      £3.00 per pack (inc VAT)

 

As with the new Kra-Vak ships, please note that the current photos of the new BLF packs are temporary, until I have the chance to take some better pics of based and inked gropups of the figures!

 

All the new items mentioned here are NOW AVAILABLE and ready to order.

 

 

Thanks for reading, hope that the New Year is treating you all well so far..... more updates soon, including news of the upcoming shows in March and April!

 

Jon (GZG), Thursday 24th January 2019.

............................................................................................................................

 

 

UPDATE - MONDAY 31st DECEMBER 2018:

 

A VERY HAPPY NEW YEAR to all, and the NEW YEAR DISCOUNT VOUCHERS are NOW LIVE!

 

The 2019 NEW YEAR VOUCHERS are now all LIVE, please read the notes below on how to redeem them. Please don't forget that like last year, they are valid for JANUARY ONLY - now that I attend the HAMMERHEAD show at the beginning of March, I will need most of February to prepare and restock for that after dealing with all the January orders.

 

 

UPDATE ON CURRENT MAIL-ORDER SITUATION, as of 31/12/18: As usual after the Christmas rush, I am running a bit behind with some orders; despite packing and mailing quite a few during the post-Christmas week, and another batch this morning, I do still have a fair number to get through - if you’ve placed an order in the run-up to Christmas and have not yet received the automated confirmation of dispatch, then it’s most likely one that I’m still working on; please accept my apologies for the delay, and I will get all of them out as soon as possible of course.

 

If anyone has not yet received their pre-Christmas order with the voucher enclosed (some that have already been mailed may be taking a while to get through overseas postal systems, and I still have some to process and dispatch as explained above), but wants to place a new order immediately, then I am able to give you your voucher code via email on request. The same applies if you've received but mislaid your voucher, so don't panic, just email me!

 

Realistically, it’s probably going to take me most of the remainder of this week to get fully up to date on the orders that I already have here, so any new ones placed this week most likely won’t go out until the following week unless they are very quick and simple ones that I can fit in between dealing with the larger orders.

 

 

HOW TO REDEEM YOUR NEW YEAR VOUCHERS:

 

Most of our regular and returning customers will know the drill by now, but if this is the first time you’ve been sent a New Year Discount Voucher in your pre-Christmas order, it will have a unique handwritten code of SEVEN CHARACTERS on it in the form of THREE UPPERCASE LETTERS followed by a FOUR DIGIT NUMBER (starting either “1” or “2”). 

You need to enter the code in exactly that format, with NO spaces - please be careful to distinguish between the letter "O" and a zero "0", and likewise between an uppercase "I" and the digit "1". When you are sure that you have put all the items you want to order into your basket, go to the "View Basket" step; here you will see a box marked "PROMOTIONAL CODE OR GIFT CARD" - you need to enter your voucher code in that box, and then click the purple button marked "UPDATE BASKET".

If you have done this correctly, you should then see the relevant % discount (10% or 20% depending on your voucher value) shown in RED and deducted from the order subtotal. IF THIS DOES NOT APPEAR (or doesn’t seem to be correct), PLEASE DO NOT COMPLETE OR PAY FOR THE ORDER, but email me (jon@gzg.com) directly and I should be able to sort out the problem for you.

If the discount % shows correctly, then simply proceed to complete and pay for the order as normal. Please note that the % discount does NOT apply to the shipping costs (sadly, the products don't get lighter to post when they are discounted!), but it does of course reduce the VAT amount (where applicable) by the relevant %.

 

Please note that your voucher code may only be used ONCE - and the store will consider it "used" as soon as you move from the “view basket” stage to the checkout stage, even if you then leave it as a pending order. Should you encounter any problems during the payment stage, or realise that you've made an error with your order and need to try again, then please email me immediately and I will be able to re-set your code so that you can have another go!

 

Thank you for all your support during the year, and wishing everyone a safe, happy and healthy 2019!

 

Jon (GZG), Monday 31st December 2018.

UPDATE - TUESDAY 25th DECEMBER 2018, CHRISTMAS DAY!

HAPPY CHRISTMAS!

 

That's it, it's now Christmas Day here in the UK, and the Christmas Offers are now officially CLOSED..... I'm going try my best to take a few days' break now, but will be posting here again just before New Year to give you all the required details on how to start redeeming your discount vouchers in January.

Thanks to everyone for your custom through the year, and wishing you all a safe, healthy and happy 2019!

 

 

Jon (GZG), 25th Dec 2018.

ADDITIONAL UPDATE - SATURDAY 24th NOVEMBER 2018:

2018 CHRISTMAS SPECIALS ARE NOW RUNNING - FREE EXTRA STUFF BEFORE CHRISTMAS, AND NEW YEAR DISCOUNT VOUCHERS!

 

Our 2018 Christmas Specials are NOW ON as of today, SATURDAY 24th NOVEMBER, and they will run until MIDNIGHT (2400 Hours) UK time on SUNDAY 23rd December. Our Christmas offers have been extremely popular over many years now, so this year I'm keeping it just the same again - including the simplified qualifying criteria for the offers that have worked very well the last couple of years, just using the GRAND TOTAL VALUE of your order - the actual amount you pay - rather than getting all complicated about sub-total values, VAT-exclusive prices and stuff….. so once again, ALL ORDERS WITH A FINAL GRAND TOTAL VALUE (INCLUDING SHIPPING AND VAT WHERE APPLICABLE) of 30.00 GBP or more will qualify for both parts of the special deal:

 

1) All qualifying orders will get a FREE CHRISTMAS GOODIE BAG of extra minis and stuff - how much free stuff you get depends on the size of your order, and I'll tailor the contents to fit the kind of items you are ordering (plus maybe the occasional bonus sample that might tempt you into other ranges and scales...). What goes in the Goodie Bag is our choice, so no being cheeky and asking for specific codes please - but those of you who have had our previous Christmas freebies over the years will know that we give you a very generous selection of items that you can actually use for your armies/fleets - and usually much more stuff than you'd get from a simple % discount offer!
Sometimes I may put in the odd special or unreleased item too, so you never know what you might get… that's part of the fun of a gift!

 

2) In addition to the Free Stuff with your order, all qualifying customers will also get a VOUCHER that you can use to get a generous DISCOUNT off a further order placed after Christmas - so you can get all your pre-Xmas stuff AND free goodies now, and then spend the voucher when you have some gift money from all those relatives who have absolutely NO idea what to buy for you!

The value of the voucher you will receive varies according to the size of your pre-Xmas order - if your total order value is from 30.00 GBP to 100.00 GBP then you'll get a voucher for 10% discount; any orders with a total value of OVER 100 GBP will get a whopping 20% discount voucher!

 

This year the discount vouchers will be valid for the whole of JANUARY 2019 - so the voucher codes will become "live" on the store on TUESDAY the 1st of January 2019, and any un-used ones will expire at Midnight (UK time) on Thursday the 31st January 2019. This is the same arrangement as last year (2017) - previously (2016 and earlier) the vouchers were valid for January AND February, but we now attend the HAMMERHEAD show at the beginning of March - which means I will need most of February to bring stock levels back up after the Christmas/New Year period. Please don't forget the new deadline, it should still give you plenty of time to spend your Christmas present money…..

 

Each voucher will carry a unique code number that allows you to use it online, of course - as usual, I will post the full instructions for redeeming the vouchers on the store before they become live at the start of January.

 

...............

 

Christmas dispatch times and ordering dates, and Christmas/New Year break:

Throughout the pre- and post-Christmas period, I will be trying to keep as much up to date with order dispatches as possible - but please understand that things can get VERY busy and some orders may well take a few days longer than normal to be shipped out. If there are any serious delays then I will try to let you know where possible.
Obviously we are all at the mercy of the postal services as to delivery times - but we would strongly recommend that international orders (especially for Australia, NZ etc) are placed no later than the first week of December if you want any real hope of them arriving before Christmas. With some larger orders it is possible to ship them via parcel courier (UPS etc) rather than by airmail, the couriers are faster and with much better online tracking - if you want me to do this, or just want more details on this shipping option, please ask when you place the order.

 

IMPORTANT NOTE TO OUR CANADIAN CUSTOMERS - we have been informed that there are Postal Service disputes currently happening with Canada Post that are significantly delaying international mail; PLEASE place your order early and allow extra time for packets to reach you, at least until the situation resolves itself.

 

I will continue to dispatch orders right up to Christmas Eve, Monday 24th of December - after that I will be trying to take a week’s break over the Christmas/New Year period, re-opening on Wednesday 2nd January 2019. The online webstore will remain "open" throughout the Christmas period so you can still place orders, but no orders will be processed and dispatched until after the 2nd of January.

 

Thanks to you all for your support and valued custom through 2018, and I hope we can tempt you with even more new and exciting things in 2019!
Wishing you all a great Christmas (or whatever other seasonal festival you choose to celebrate around this time of year) and a safe, happy and gaming-filled New Year!

 

All the best,

Jon (GZG),  24th Nov 2018.

UPDATE - TUESDAY 20th NOVEMBER 2018:

Now the shows are over for the year, the run-up to CHRISTMAS starts...

After a very successful and enjoyable weekend at WARFARE, things are now getting back to normal just in time for everything to go crazy again for Christmas!

The latest NEW RELEASES (15mm and Kra'Vak Starships) will all be uploaded to the store over the next few days, as soon as I've had a chance to catch up on mail-order dispatches. Any orders that were placed in the last week or so which have not been dispatched yet due to the show will be going out this week.

 

I will very shortly be announcing the details of this year's CHRISTMAS and NEW YEAR OFFERS, which will be starting SOON - those of you who have taken advantage of the offers in recent years will know pretty much what to expect, it works well and seems to be popular so why change it?

So, please check back here often over the next week or so, to read all the latest info and news posts.

UPDATE - MONDAY 12th NOVEMBER 2018:

WARFARE (READING) ON 17th/18th!

Just a very few days to go now before our LAST show of 2018 - the always-popular and well-attended WARFARE at the RIVERMEAD LEISURE CENTRE in READING, BERKS. Times, venue details etc are all HERE.

We will be in the same location as the last few years - first aisle on the left of the main trade hall. As usual we will have as much stock as we can bring of the 15mm and FT ranges, unfortunately for reasons of space (both in the van and on the stand!) we can't bring the 25mm, 6mm or 2mm stuff to shows anymore.

 

There will be some more NEW RELEASES, both in 15mm and the Starships - including some of the BIG classes of the new Kra'Vak ships!

 

Looking forward to seeing lots of regular and new faces at the weekend.... WARFARE is always a great show for us to end the season with, so please come along if you possibly can.

SHOW NEWS: As many of our regulars will be aware, WARFARE is coming up very soon, at the Rivermead Leisure Centre, Caversham Road, READING, Berkshire; the show is on for two days, the 17th and 18th of November - we will of course be there, in our usual spot in the first aisle against the left-hand wall as you come into the main trade area. We will have as much stock as we can carry, including YET MORE new releases.... more details later. As with all other shows, due to weight and space limitations we can only bring stocks of the 15mm ranges and the FT starships - so if you want anything else from our lines (25mm figures, 6mm or 2mm ranges) then you MUST drop me an email with a pre-order so that I can have what you want cast up and ready for you to collect at the show!

More show news later, PLUS another batch of NEW RELEASES - the latest in the new-type Kra'Vak Starships range!

 

 

Thanks for reading, hope to see you at Reading (yes, pun intended....)

ADDITIONAL UPDATE - MONDAY 15th OCTOBER 2018:

NEW FIGHTER GROUP STANDS FOR FT....

For some years now, all FT Fighter Group packs have been supplied with a six-armed "spider" stand cast in metal, which sits on top of one of the regular black plastic stands and supports the six fighter miniatures in the group. Following very positive reactions for some regular customers who have been sent some samples, I'm now REPLACING the metal cast "spiders" with some similarly-sized items in laser-cut clear acrylic, which we think look very attractive on the tabletop and are considerably less fragile than the metal cast supports. From now, ALL FT Fighter Group packs sold both by mail-order and at shows will be supplied with the new acrylic "spider" stands. I am aware, of course, that many regular FT collectors may already have their existing fighter forces based up using the metal stand versions and might prefer to keep them all consistent - and for that reason I am happy to continue to supply the metal "spiders" in place of the acrylic versions, at least for the moment, BY SPECIAL REQUEST - so if you still want the metal ones you MUST ask me for them when you order, otherwise the new acrylic versions will be supplied.

 

EDIT 1/11/18: Pictures of new acrylic fighter stands added HERE, plus all-new 3-ARM version HERE.....

UPDATE - SUNDAY 23rd SEPTEMBER 2018:

THE KRA'VAK RETURN....and are now up for Mail Order!

UNDIA Briefing Report 230918.25 - Update on newly-observed Kra’Vak Warship types…..

 

"A number of NEW TYPE designs of Kra’Vak warships have recently been detected - as yet the K’V designations for the new classes are unknown, but UNDIA (United Nations Defence Intelligence Agency) has assigned standard “K” type Reporting Codenames to each new class observed so far.

 

In most cases, the new ship types are generally similar in overall configuration to the types known previously, though they exhibit many design upgrades and enhanced features; some of the newly-observed ships have configurations not previously seen in K’V War Fleets, in particular the three-gun and four-gun Heavy Cruiser designs (Reporting Codenames KAYAK and KAPOK) and what appears to be a new very heavy four-gun Battleship class (Reporting Codename KLAXON).

 

Following the combat deployment of these new classes, it is highly likely that more previously unknown designs will be reported as further contacts with K’V forces occur. It is not known at this time whether these new ship types represent upgrades to the fleets of the K’V WarClans already known to humanity, or if this is an indication of additional WarClans joining the offensive….."

 

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

 

 

These are just the first of the ALL-NEW KRA’VAK FLEET for FULL THRUST - with superb 3D design work and detailing from MMG, all ships (where appropriate) are supplied with separate sprues of small turrets to represent K1 gun mounts and “Scattergun” defensive launchers, which may be mounted as desired on the many turret “hard points” on the models. These all-new ships have been designed to still be in keeping with the old original CMD sculpts of the K’V ships, and are close enough in size and general style that collectors with old fleets can freely mix the new style ones into their existing fleets, although of course the new types are much better detailed and MUCH easier to assemble!

 

There will be many more classes to follow soon, so watch our updates here for more information over the next few months….

UPDATE - WEDNESDAY 17th JANUARY 2018:

NEW RELEASES NOW READY!

I hope that 2018 is treating you all well so far, and that those of you who have gone down with various seasonal coughs and colds are now recovering..... well, to cheer things up in the bleak middle of January, the promised NEW RELEASES are now ready for sale - with a couple of weeks left before the January Discount Vouchers expire - so if you've been waiting for these before placing your order, here they are!

 

A FULL RANGE of all the essential packs for the new ESU REGULAR ARMY, as previewed late last year with the introductory SG15-E41 pack (now relisted as a standard 8-figure pack); now with NINE packs, including Command and the various Heavy Weapons teams, PLUS a very useful little 6-wheeled "mule" as a light transport/towing vehicle.

As explained when the E41 pack was launched, these figures are variants of the ESU Naval Infantry range, with new helmets and additional kit giving them a very different look - while the Naval Infantry are the "Marines" of the ESU Space Naval forces, the Regular Army are the grunts who make up the majority of the Eurasian Solar Union ground troops.

SG15-E42        ESU Regular Army Rifle Troops B - 8 figs, 2 each of 4 poses.
SG15-E43        ESU Regular Army SAW Gunners - 8 figs, 2 each of 4 poses.

SG15-E46        ESU Regular Army Tribarrel Autocannon teams - 2 guns with light wheeled carriages, 4 crew figures (2 per gun), plus bonus sprues of spare ammo cans
SG15-E47        ESU Regular Army Medium Mortar teams - 2 drum-fed mortar tubes with light wheeled carriages, 4 crew figures (2 per mortar), plus bonus sprues of spare ammo cans
SG15-E48        ESU Regular Army Anti-Vehicle Missile System (AVMS) teams - two complete weapon teams, each consisting of launcher (with optional parts to assemble as 2-round or 4-round system) on light wheeled carriage, 2 crew figures and packs of reload missiles
SG15-E51        ESU Electric Mule (6-wheel light vehicle) with Regular Army driver - light transport load carrier used as towing vehicle for Mortar, AVMS and Tribarrel teams (multi-part kit of one vehicle with driver)

 

To see (and purchase!) all these new codes, scroll down to the foot of this page and click on the relevant featured items, or simply go to the ESU page of the 15mm Infantry listings.

COMMAND PACKS for the ISLAMIC FED in SHEMAGH, and ESU in CAMO CAPES:

Two new variant packs for the KRA'VAK:

 

SG15-K25        Kra'Vak GRAV BIKES - two bikes with riders (in HELMETS) and "flight" bases                £6.00 per pack inc VAT (£5.00 ex-VAT)

PLUS the first sample pack of ESU Regular Army - 8 with rifles plus 2 SAW gunners FREE (10 fig pack as an intro offer) - same weapons and uniforms as the Marines of the Naval Infantry, but with a different helmet (which gives them a completely different look) and loaded down with big rucksacks and loads of carried equipment:

£4.50 per pack inc VAT (£3.75 ex-VAT)

 

Once I'm back from the show I will catch up as quickly as possible on the mailorders, then it will be almost time for Christmas.... so watch for more news in a week or so!

UPDATE - THURSDAY 19th OCTOBER 2017:

SELWG new releases!

SELWG (South East London Wargames Group) show is now only a few days away, so here's a quick preview of the NEW packs that will be released at the show!

 

Our SG15-X05 and X08 "Alien Mercenaries" packs have always been very popular since they were released quite a few years back, but until now I have never got round to expanding the range of these ugly, hairless, pointy-eared little guys - well, now I can finally announce the first HEAVY WEAPONS pack for them - in this new pack you get THREE complete weapon teams of a groundmount drum-fed Heavy Machine Gun with seated gunner, a gun commander standing with binoculars, and a heavily-laden ammo porter festooned with extra drums for the gun:

 

SG15-X20        Alien Mercs Heavy Machine Gun Teams - THREE teams each consisting of weapon and mount, sitting gunner, gun commander with binoculars and ammo porter with reload drums.          £6.00 per pack inc VAT (£5.00 ex-VAT)

 


Staying on the alien theme, there are TWO new packs for the ever-popular KRA'VAK - they get some fast recon and support in the form of a pair of GRAV BIKES, plus something very different - a pack of HUNTING BEASTS - fast, vicious dog/lizard beasties with spiky tails and savage mandibles/jaws that echo the K'V figures themselves. The pack contains NINE of the Beasts (three each of three variant sculpts) plus two (different) Kra'Vak "handlers" armed with long pointy weapons to drive their charges in the right direction…..

 

SG15-K24        Kra'Vak GRAV BIKES - two bikes with riders (bareheaded) and "flight" bases                £6.00 per pack inc VAT (£5.00 ex-VAT)
SG15-K26        Kra'Vak Hunting Beasts - NINE beasts (3 each of 3 poses) plus two "handlers"                £4.50 per pack inc VAT (£3.75 ex-VAT)

 


Some much-requested COMMAND AND COMMS figures for two existing ranges, the ESU Naval Infantry and the Islamic Federation troops:

 

SG15-E21        ESU Naval Infantry Command and Comms pack (8 figures)                                £3.00 per pack inc VAT (£2.50 ex-VAT)

SG15-IF23        Islamic Federation Command and Comms pack - in helmets (8 figures)                        £3.00 per pack inc VAT (£2.50 ex-VAT)

 


Finally, something a little different again: a set of Civilian Power Suits, personal exoskeleton rigs of a similar size to our military Power Armours but designed for heavy industrial work, cargo loading and similar duties - each pack has SIX suit bodies (3 each of 2 variant poses) plus NINE sets of arms, to give you plenty of variety in how you choose to assemble them; you get three sets each of standard manipulator arms, cargo-handling grabs, and work arms with plasma cutter in right hand and a portable power unit in the left. The suits have full enclosed helmets, and could also be used for EVA repair duties or as robotic work units.

 

SG15-V20        Civilian/Industrial Powered Work Suits - 6 bodies (3 each of 2 poses) plus 9 sets of arms - three standard manipulator sets, three cargo handling grab sets, three sets with plasma cutter and power unit                            £4.50 per pack inc VAT (£3.75 ex-VAT)

 


All of these NEW codes will be available at SELWG this coming Sunday (though please note that some will be in very limited quantities, so please get there early if you want them!), and very shortly after I'm back they will be added to the store for mailorder.

 

Thanks for reading, hope to see all our regulars at the show!

UPDATE - MONDAY 2nd OCTOBER 2017:

NEW ITEMS UP ON STORE!

It's been a few weeks now since COLOURS (which went very well for us, the show seemed well attended) and I've finally got the new releases up on the store for ordering! Four packs of ISLAMIC FEDERATION troops in different headgear (see notes below) to give some variety to your regular IF units, and/or to use as irregular or insurgent forces....

 

Note on headgear in Islamic Federation figure packs (SG15-IF codes): The traditional Arabic cloth headgear has many names and can be worn in many different ways, but in this range of figures it is described as a Keffiyeh when worn around the head and draped over the back of the neck, the head part being retained by the rope circlet known as an Agal; the figure packs described as being in Shemagh depict the cloth wrapped turban-style around the head with excess fabric draped around the neck and shoulders, the Shemagh figures have a mix of ones with the face visible, and ones with the cloth over the face as a dust/sand mask.


SG15-IF13        Islamic Federation riflemen in Shemagh (8 figures, 2 each of 4 poses)                         £3.00 per pack (£2.50 ex-VAT)
SG15-IF19        Islamic Federation SAW gunners, Missile launchers and Snipers in Keffiyeh (8 figures, 2 each of 4 poses)                         £3.00 per pack (£2.50 ex-VAT)
SG15-IF20        Islamic Federation SAW gunners, Missile launchers and Snipers in Shemagh (8 figures, 2 each of 4 poses)                         £3.00 per pack (£2.50 ex-VAT)
SG15-IF22        Islamic Federation Treadbikes with crews (rider plus pillion rifleman) in Shemagh - two bikes and crews, multipart kits         £4.50 per pack (£3.75 ex-VAT)

 

One important little note to avoid confusion: I made an error in numbering the IF "treadbike" packs when putting the displays and listings together (mea culpa!), so to sort it out the Treadbike pack with HELMETED riders is now code SG15-IF21 (instead of IF20) and the IF20 code has been re-allocated to a different pack as above.

 

At the time of writing this, all mailorders are up-to-date and new orders are going out almost as soon as they are ordered - please be aware that things may slow a little as the SELWG (Crystal Palace, London) show approaches, but I'll try to keep getting most dispatches out within a couple of days at most.

 

On other things, I recently had the honour of spending an enjoyable couple of hours chatting by phone with Neil and co. from the MEEPLES AND MINIATURES podcast, and they've now posted most of my ramblings as No. 230 in their series of wargaming podcasts - so if you can stand an hour and a half of me talking about my early days in the hobby, starting GZG, and assorted other stuff then feel free to have a listen to it:

Thanks for reading, hope to see lots of you at SELWG on the 22nd, more info on that very soon.....

Jon (GZG), Monday 2nd Oct 2017.

UPDATE - SUNDAY 7th MAY 2017:

ALL THE SALUTE NEW RELEASES NOW ON THE STORE!

As promised in the last update, the 2017 SALUTE new releases are now all up on the store and available for mailorder!

Check out the relevant pages of the FT and SG15 listings, or just see the featured NEW ITEMS at the foot of this page.

 

FULL THRUST - for the CRUSTIES fleet:
All of these new releases for the FT "Crusties" fleet have been 3D-designed by MMG, very finely 3D-printed as masters and then moulded and cast in metal. The level of detail on these small ships and fighters is very high, and we plan to produce more new FT releases this way in the near future.
Please note that the FT1601 and 1621 packs REPLACE the original Crusties' fighter design that was only ever available as part of the old "Mystery Fleet" pack; if any of you have some of the old fighter design that you want to add to rather than replace (or supplement) with the new types, then please contact me (Jon) directly via email and small quantities can still be produced to special order when time and workload permits.

Please note also that the "Mystery Fleet" deal has now been DISCONTINUED, and the "Crusties" fleet option will been added to the menu of regular fleet packs - so you can now order Intro, Starter or Mega-fleet deals of them!


FT1601    Crusties Light Fighters (pack of 6 fighters, including metal "spider" stand and plastic base)        £1.80 inc VAT (£1.50 ex VAT)

FT1621    Crusties Heavy Fighters (pack of 6 fighters, including metal "spider" stand and plastic base)        £1.80 inc VAT (£1.50 ex VAT)

FT1602    Crusties Scout Boats (pack of 3 models, including 3 plastic bases)        £2.40 inc VAT (£2.00 ex VAT)

FT1625    Crusties Strike Boats (pack of 3 models, including 3 plastic bases)        £2.40 inc VAT (£2.00 ex VAT)

 

 

NEW SG15 RELEASES (15mm figures, weapon teams and light vehicles):

 

BRETHREN OF THE NEW LIGHT: FOUR new packs for the fundamentalist Brethren forces - three new sets of Heavy Weapon teams, plus a useful pack of handcarts for moving supplies and ammo! Traditonally-sculpted figures with 3D-designed hardware and equipment - the best of both worlds!

SG15-BR09    Brethren Mortar Teams - two full teams each consisting of mortar tube, support frame and base/stand, plus THREE crew figures for each weapon and separate mortar ammo cases.    £3.00 inc VAT (£2.50 ex VAT)

 

SG15-BR10    Brethren Recoilless Rifle Teams - two full teams each consisting of weapon and mount (optional mounts are supplied for both weapons - a single piece casting with integral base AND a separate 2-part tripod that may be used if a base is not required, e.g.: if the weapon is being mounted in the back of a vehicle), plus two crew figures for each weapon - one with a separate base to allow him to be positioned at the sighting scope of the gun, whichever tripod option is used - and separate packs of ammunition.    £3.00 inc VAT (£2.50 ex VAT)

 

SG15-BR11    Brethren Spigot Mortar Teams - an alternative bombardment weapon firing a heavy explosive bomb from a simple spigot launcher frame. While cumbersome and slow-loading, the size and explosive power of the bombs make this a highly effective and terrifying weapon. Pack contains two full teams each consisting of base mount, launcher spigot with loaded bomb, plus two crew figures for each weapon and separate bomb reloads.    £3.00 inc VAT (£2.50 ex VAT)

 

SG15-BR12    Brethren Handcart Teams - two handcarts to carry supplies and ammunition, each supplied with two figures pulling the cart, PLUS a random selection of ammunition cases and reloads for the various heavy weapons used by the Brethren forces. As the Brethren troops most frequently operate as "leg" infantry, the handcarts are an ideal low-tech, low-cost solution to transporting their equipment and supplies, especially heavy items such as ammunition for the support weapon teams.        £3.00 inc VAT (£2.50 ex VAT)

 

 

For the Kra'Vak, a pack of HEAVY ARMOURED WARRIORS:

SG15-K31    Kra'Vak Heavy Warriors in full armour suits, pack of SIX figures with separate Grav Packs (optional) and sufficient arm/weapon parts to assemble all six figures with standard K-gun hand weapons OR to give two of them a heavy support K-gun.        £4.50 inc VAT (£3.75 ex VAT)

 

 

15mm Bikes, Quads and other Small Vehicles!

The other BIG part of the SALUTE releases was a selection of small vehicles for various forces from the Stargrunt 15 ranges; the Pan-African Union (PAU) got a Quad, the Federal Stats (FSE), Colonial Defence Force (CDF) and Islamic federation (IF) all got various types of ground bikes, the Eurasian Union (ESU) got a very chunky and powerful-looking Jetbike and the Xar aliens got some nice Grav-Discs to ride on!

All bikes and other hardware are once again 3D-designed by MMG, while all riders/pilots/crews are traditionally-sculpted to match their respective SG15 infantry ranges.

PLEASE

NOTE: most of our earlier releases of bikes and light vehicles were given V15 codes, as part of the 15mm vehicles range; this time I have decided to give the new releases SG15 codes specific to the forces that they "belong" to, BUT I've listed them all on the store both in the individual force ranges AND in the generic "light vehicles" category of the V15 vehicle listing, so you can find them either way.


SG15-P30    Pan-African Union (PAU) Quad with rider (in helmet) - one quad and rider, supplied as a multi-part kit including several optional stowage cases to fit on the mudguards of the Quad.        £3.00 inc VAT (£2.50 ex VAT)


SG15-C30    Colonial Defence Force (CDF) wheeled scout bikes with riders (in helmet) - TWO bikes and riders, supplied as multi-part kits.        £4.50 inc VAT (£3.75 ex VAT)


SG15-IF20    Islamic Federation (IF) tread-bikes with riders and passengers (in helmet) - TWO half-track sandbikes each with rider and rifle-armed pillion passenger, supplied as multi-part kits.        £4.50 inc VAT (£3.75 ex VAT)


SG15-F35    Federal Stats (FSE) Colonial Legion scout bikes with riders and passengers (in helmet) - TWO twin-rear-wheel off-road bikes each with rider and rifle-armed pillion passenger, supplied as multi-part kits.        £4.50 inc VAT (£3.75 ex VAT)


SG15-E35    Eurasian Solar Union (ESU) Jet Bikes with Naval Infantry riders (in helmet) - TWO bikes and riders, supplied as multi-part kits with low-level "flight" bases.         £6.00 inc VAT (£5.00 ex VAT)


SG15-X38    XAR ("Chitters") aliens Grav Discs - TWO discs with Xar pilots, supplied as multi-part kits with low-level "flight" bases; each disc can be assembled with twin heavy weapon mounts as shown, or the mountings for the guns can be left off completely if you want them to be simple "scout" discs. Pack is supplied with THREE alternate head/torso parts for the Xar pilots, one with Beam Rifle, one with Beam Pistol and one with Vision Enhancer.        £6.00 inc VAT (£5.00 ex VAT)

 

Thanks for reading.

UPDATE - THURSDAY 8th SEPTEMBER 2016:

NEW RELEASES FOR COLOURS!

As well as casting loads of stock for the show, I should just about have a number of NEW releases ready for the show - I'm making the moulds for these this week in between casting stock, so it'll be down to the wire as usual, but I hope to have at least a small stock of these new packs on Saturday - so come and see us as soon as you get to the show, to avoid disappointment!
Don't forget we are up on the FIRST FLOOR of the Grandstand, in the same position as last year.

I will have the following NEW packs available on the day, though some will be in very limited quantities (they will be up on the store for mail-order shortly after the show, with pictures):
……………

TWO rifle packs for the ESU Naval Infantry - the start of a full re-sculpt of the ESU troops, replacing the old E01/E02 packs with greatly improved sculpts; similar overall style to the originals but now with redesigned helmets, new weapons, better posing and much more detail!

SG15-E10    ESU Naval Infantry (new sculpt) Rifle Pack A - 8 figures (4 different poses)*        £3.00 per pack.  SEE SPECIAL LAUNCH OFFER BELOW!

SG15-E11    ESU Naval Infantry (new sculpt) Rifle Pack B - 8 figures (4 different poses)*        £3.00 per pack.  SEE SPECIAL LAUNCH OFFER BELOW!

……………

The first pack of ground troops for the OutRim Coalition (ORC) forces - despite their acronym these are nothing to do with green-skinned alien hooligans, they are a high-tech force of human troops raised to protect the Outer Colonies against aggression from both alien incursions and the threat from the "old" powers of the Inner Worlds. All-new designs and sculpts.

SG15-RC01    ORC (OutRim Coalition) Marine Assault Troops in Combat Hardsuits, Rifle Pack A - 8 figures (4 different poses)*        £3.00 per pack.   SEE SPECIAL LAUNCH OFFER BELOW!

……………

TWO rifle packs for the NSL Colonial Jaeger Light Infantry - the unarmoured light troops to support the NSL Panzergrenadiers - these are all-new re-sculpts to replace the original N02/N06 packs, with much improved proportions, poses and detail, their distinctive combat helmets and the same weapons types as the Panzergrenadier armoured troopers.

* SPECIAL LAUNCH OFFER: for the show, AND then for a strictly limited time on mailorder, all the standard 8-figure Rifle Troops packs listed here will contain TEN figures instead of eight, as we're giving you TWO FREE SAW GUNNERS with each Rifles pack!

Thanks for reading, hope to see many of you at Newbury Racecourse this Saturday (10th)!

Jon (GZG), Thurs. 8th Sept 2016.

.......................................

IMPORTANT NOTE ON NEW ISRAELI AND KRA'VAK STARSHIPS:

Please note that these two ranges of FT starships (the NI 15xx codes and K'V 4xx codes) are now suffering from significant mould wear, and in due course they will be withdrawn from sale pending the making of new moulds for them; if you wish to order any in the meantime we can still supply them for the moment, but on the understanding that some (especially the larger K'V classes) will need considerably more clean-up work (flash removal, re-opening mounting holes etc) that our normal castings. Thanks for your attention.


UPDATE - SUNDAY 21st August 2016:

It's been a while since my last update post on here - sorry, I just don't know where the last couple of months have disappeared to! I have been keeping pretty well up to date with order dispatches, and lots of other stuff has been going on in the background, there will be some announcements on new releases soon so please keep checking back here for news.....

The Autumn shows are now getting close, starting with COLOURS (Newbury Racecourse) on the 10th of September - like last year, this show is now SATURDAY ONLY, and we will be in the same spot as last year on the FIRST FLOOR - as I booked a little bit late, I'm not sure if the official show website includes us in their traders list yet - it doesn't seem to be updated very often - but rest assured that we WILL be there. After Colours, we then have SELWG at Crystal Palace, London on SUNDAY 9th OCTOBER, and then our usual end-of-year show at WARFARE in Reading (Rivermead Leisure Centre) on the 19th and 20th of NOVEMBER. I'm hoping to be launching some new items at each show, check back here for more details!

Between now and COLOURS I have a lot of stock to make, which may mean that the mailorder turnround slips just a bit - I will still be getting all orders out as quickly as possible, but please allow a couple of extra days in some cases.

Thanks for reading, more news soon - hope to see many of our regulars at the shows, plus some new faces too!

Jon (GZG), 21st August 2016.

.......................................

UPDATE - MONDAY 4th July 2016:

HAPPY 4th OF JULY to all my friends and customers in the USA - while you are celebrating, please remember that the GBP/USD exchange rate is STILL tipped very much in your favour, so as I mentioned last week it's a great time for you to order (of course, this also applies to everyone else outside the UK - Canada, Australia, and not forgetting everybody in Europe too!).

.......................................

UPDATE - FRIDAY 24th June 2016:

Well, the Referendum is over and done, for better or worse - but one effect of it all is that the (hopefully temporary) drop in Sterling is a great opportunity for our overseas customers - especially those in North America - to get orders in now, before the markets stabilise again - you will, quite literally, get "more bang for your bucks"....... your order will cost you less today than it would have done yesterday!

UPDATE - MONDAY 15th February 2016:

ANOTHER RATHER IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT....

I'm afraid that things are still rather chaotic here at present, as my mother passed away on Friday 12th Feb, which means that the next week or more are going to be largely taken up with making all the necessary arrangements, many phone calls and form-filling.... Those of you who have been through such things yourselves will know just how much work this entails, and how many things need to be dealt with. I WILL also be doing my best to get at least some orders dispatched (short and simple ones that can be done quickly may well go out ahead of any large, complex ones, just to reduce the number of overdue ones that I have here) but please be patient if yours is delayed a while - I will get them all done eventually! Remember the voucher expiry at the end of February, and you are all welcome to get your orders placed - just please don't expect the usual very fast turnaround, at least until things are back to normal again.

Thanks to you all,

Jon (GZG), Monday 15th Feb 2016.
