Battletech Online
« on: 16 April 2011, 09:40:43 »
Does anyone know exactly where I could order IWM products online? I live in what's technically known as the middle of nowhere, so there aren't any stores near me (East Northamptonshire, UK) and my searches around the internet-including this site-have shown nowhere but Ebay to buy the stuff I'm after.

tl;dr - I'm looking for somewhere to order Battletech minis.

Hi,
If your in the UK, you can't go wrong with RPE, great service and still have many older casts on sale including the MFUK mini's.

Hey, what's the deal!?  Ral Partha Europe has miniatures that Ironwind doesn't even stock, like the Osiris for one!

[edit] Gah!  They also have a full set of resin buildings!

you can purchase the Osiris from IWM, it is in archive, and is because of a difference in policy between RPUK and IWM.

basically IWM was running out of space (molds stored on top of toilet tanks) so they rented a storage locker and but Battletech molds that were not selling a certian number per year in there.  you can purchase a mini from the section labeled "Archive" but you need to pay an extra 8 dollar fee for your order (ONE TIME, not per mini) to represent to cost of gas, initia casting etc. involved in going off site to get the miniature.

you can find the archive here. http://ironwindmetals.com/store/index.php?cPath=16_44_190

Okay, that's why it wasn't coming up in the search.  It's misspelled in the archive as 'Osirus.'

Do they still have the Rampage mini listed as Trampage?
