The old 15mm Traveller miniatures...

[toddaroo]

Remember those? From Citadel, not Martian Metals.

Here and here.

These, and more, are still available. I just stumbled upon them at RAFM's site and ordered a dton of them. Right here.

Sorry if this is already a well known fact.

Speaking of which, does anyone know if the Martian Metals have been purchased by anyone or are being released (like the Citadel ones, under a different name)?

Last I heard, iirc, Martian Metals lost the molds in a fire ages ago.

Ugh. Such a terrible loss...

Thanks

They are pretty cool.

Thanks for posting them.

It is good to see that the minis are still "in print"

I ordered some myself.

You might want to check out the Blog Dropship Horizon. http://dropshiphorizon.blogspot.com/

It is dedicated to 15mm sci fi miniature gaming. Has heaps of links to other 15mm sc fi manufacturers.

The old Adventurers set were the first miniatures I ever bought (before that I poured my own)! I loved that box art, I once bought a book of SF short stories just because it had the same cover picture.

Anyone know their email address, as I can't find it on the site? I'd like to find out their overseas shipping charges.

I'm in the UK and I've ordered a fair bit from them. The shipping isn't cheap. My last order was for 6 packs of 15mm Traveller figures ($34.70) and they charged me $15.00 postage To add insult to injury that order attracted a customs charge of about £3.50 AND a postage handling charge of £8. I won't be ordering any more kit from RAFM unless I REALLY need it or I'm ordering a big enough quantity that it makes sense.

Ouch! Don't they have a UK distributor?

That's why I'm still looking for their email address (unsuccessfully). If in doubt, it's always best to ask first.

15mm Zhodani

As an aside there is a place called Eureka Miniatures. They have a set up called the 300 club. Once they get 600 models ordered they will sculpt and cast what has been requested.

http://eurekamin.com.au/product_info.php?cPath=87_194_202&products_id=10013
is for 15 mm Ventaurans (Zhodanis).

As a disclosure, I have put in for 40 of them. So once we cross the 600 mark, we discuss what poses we want and away we go.

Anyone interested?

Had citizens, adventurers and aliens new in the early eighties still using them for gaming today, most are on their third paintjob check out my YouTube channel snapshotbygdw for some images.

I realize the OP was talking about Citadel figures, but I just posted my collection of 15mm Traveller figures (mostly Martian Metal) to my blog here: Say Hello To My Little Friend.
