Just a quick post to direct those of you who don't already know about this new venture to The Wargames Factory in Malden, Massachusetts, USA. Their link is: http://www.wargamesfactory.com/leagueind.
Howard and his two partners are offering hard plastic 28mm figures for the Seven Years War and, I believe, the War of Spanish Succession on a basis similar to Eureka Miniatures' 100 club. If there is enough interest in a range, and enough orders are placed, a limited run of the figures in question will be produced and the orders filled. Wargames Factory is also offering the possibility of figures for a number of other periods too.
I have no connection to these guys, but it would be great to see their operation get off the ground. And, of course, it's exciting to learn of more 18th century plastics without waiting for the Perry's or Victrix to decide on the viability of even producing masters for such figures, much less the actual sprues. My only reservation is that there do no seem to be any photos of finished miniatures on the Wargames Factory website, so we lack examples of their product. But, if you want to place a small order to help these guys out, and you don't mind living a bit dangerously in these perilous economic times, well, rock & roll as they say!
