Knight Models Marvel and Star Wars ranges

My new store at www.fireflyfantasy.co.uk seems to be going from strength to strength, and the fantasy market to be particularly strong at the moment.

I've added new figures from Knight Models to both the Star Wars and Marvel ranges including the fantastic Elektra kit in the Marvel range. We now stock almost everything from Knight Models and its a very comprehensive range - all the Star Wars and Marvel is on Firefly Fantasy and the ever-popular military series is over at Firefly Models.





To see more of the Knight Models ranges see www.fireflyfantasy.co.uk

Normandy 1944 back in stock

One of the most popular figures of 2011 was Historic Art's 70mm figure titled 'Normandy 1944', and its no wonder given that its a fantastic sculpt.

I did receive a number of these in December and they sold-out right away. I'm pleased to say that I've go four more in stock at www.fireflymodels.co.uk

A new look and a new site

Its been four years since Firefly Models launched, originally we held 20 items from Black Dog Models. We now have over 1000 lines including our own brand, Tommy's War, and have built in to one of the UK's leading sites for military modellers. 

To freshen the site we've gone for a new look, which we hope you like:


There is also a separate identity for our new fantasy website at www.fireflyfantasy.co.uk


Both sites operate from the same address, so if you want to consolidate an order from each then just let me know.

New figure from Knight Models

New from Knight Models military series is a 70mm figure of a Delta Force soldier. The figure is in a dynamic pose and the scenery is included in the set:


A great figure, really popular already, available online at www.fireflymodels.co.uk, our ebay store or at the East Midlands Model Show on Sunday 18th March

A new site for figure modellers

I'm often asked about stocking more of the fantasy range style of figures, I've kept away from this as I wanted to keep Firefly Models as more of a military site. However, I have been stocking the Knight Models military series and I keep getting asked by modellers to get the Star Wars and Marvel ranges.

So, to meet this demand, I've created a new website at:


This site lists all of the Knight Models ranges, plus the fantasy range of Historic Art, you will see on the site that new suppliers are coming in all the time. The fantastic Smart Max range are expected within 2 weeks and there are plenty more in the pipeline. So, if you like fantasy figures, or just want to try something different then why not pop-over to the new store and have a look.
