Hi, just wondered if there are any UK stockists for IWM?

Well, there's a site called RPE, Ral Partha Europe, based out of . . . England?   ???

Granted, I've seen posts that they don't carry the entire IWM Range, for some odd reason.   :-\
To me, Repros are 100% Wrong, and there's NO  room for me to give ground on this subject. I'm not just an Immovable Object on this, I'm THE Immovable Object. 3D Prints are just 3D Repros.

Something to bear in Mind. Defending the BT IP is Frowned upon here.

They haven’t gotten new sculpts since 2005ish. The latest stuff is that group first gen dark age material. You’d have to ask them why they don’t get the new molds from IWM

Yeah, use RPE fairly regularly, ordered a Great Wyrm yesterday as it happens, but was hoping there is someone stocking the IWM range.

There's a shop in Ireland called The Gathering that stocks IWM stuff at pretty much $1-€1 equivalence.  They do ship, but I'm not sure how the Brexit deal will effect shipments from Ireland to the UK and vice-versa. Probably have less chance of needing to mess with customs compared to ordering from Ulysses in Germany.

When it comes to germany or shipping from germany i would consider

Sven is new, but very fair, sadly he is not having all IWM stuff at the moment, but trying to get as much as possible. He is still improving a lot.

and you have:

Sadly they are not as reliable and well stocked, as they where...so consider LOOOONG waiting times (and frequently asking them where your order is), but prices are fair though.
I am a bit disappointed, but the shop itself is well-stocked, sending intime and fast (if the stuff is available, which is a very big issue the last two years...)

Does the Gathering have any shop-page?
