TB Line returning!

Regarding obelisk

I was able to order the full range from Markus at Tsuba miniatures. He didn't have the 10mm stuff listed on his store - but was happy to fulfil them

Be aware that the Obelisk stuff is on the large side of 10mm

Today Package from Aster arrives.

Impressions:

- The shipping cost is what I paid to Aster. Could be high but is what it is to ship from Italy with guarantee of succed.
- There is no original TB blisters/package
- Package is solid and miniatures well protected.
- Triptic enclosed with advertising of Aster wargame showing images of TB line. No reference of TB line in the trptic. This is coherent with the thesis Aster own the moulds.
- I did not check yet is the content of the references is exactly the same as TB line blisters.
- Very nice figures and I could not see exceed of flash or signs of wrong cast.

I got the same impressions from my package.

To know the truth about if TB line will be again cast up. I ask directly to Aster Wargame. I am copying you my original message and the respond that I obtain today.

Hi Marly,


I would like to ask you a question about the TB line figures you are selling.

Are those references material you have in stock and when the stock is over you are not be able to provide the reference?

or you have the moulds and you are going to cast the reference if you stock is over?

thanks in advance,

Jorge

Apologies for digging up an old post, but I thought people might be interested in this:

Pendraken Miniatures has purchased the TB Line 10mm ranges from Aster Wargame!  More info over on the Pendraken Forum: http://www.pendrakenforum.co.uk/index.php/topic,16334.0.html

Don't worry about it. With such good news I doubt anyone will complain.

Great news.  I bought a few TB minis from Aster and I was very impressed by the quality of the sculpts and the size comparison with GW originals and Eureka.  Lots of options now for WM players who want Araby, Albion, Bretonnian, Cathay, or Kislev armies.  You could even use Mongols as proxies for Orcs?

[andydorman]

 Yeah, I saw this too - I've been putting off getting a Bretonnian army together for a couple of years now. Only a matter of time now!!

[toadie]

Anyone know how the TB Mongols (used as hobgoblins) would look scale-wise next to Eureka Chaos Dwarf minis? Or what do other using for hobgoblins?

[empireaddict]

@toadie, just put a Eureka CD alongside a TB Mongol on foot.  Top of CD's helmet level with the Mongol's shoulder.

[empireaddict]

@toadie, Apologies, forgot to answer second part of your question.  I've used Copplestone Orcs as Hobgoblins.  The Archers and Wolf Riders.

[Warlord_Chris]

Interesting suggestion... TB foot mongols as Hobgoblins...

I also came to the conclusion that Copplestone orcs were better used as Hobgoblins. Their Half-orcs also look pretty good for use as Hobgoblins.
