New Zealand SAS from AC Models

I've got several of the much-anticipated New Zealand SAS crew (Afghanistan) from AC Models on order. AC only cast to order, so lead times are long, and this is a great set. If you would like to reserve one then email me at info@fireflymodels.co.uk. Delivery is anticipated for May 2012.

Black Dog stock updated

As its been a holiday here in the UK, I've used some of the time to update the stock at www.fireflymodels.co.uk for all of the Black Dog Models stock. I had noticed that I hadn't kept up with new stock coming in and some lines were showing - even though I had stock!

I've not put this right and I've got listed all the 1/72, 1/48 and 1/35 vehicles, all of the 1/35, 70mm and 54mm figures and all the scenic bases.

At Firefly Models we keep the most comprehensive stock of Black Dog Models, and we'll have their April releases shortly. Combine this with the fact that we're the cheapest prices for Black Dog, then you can see why we're their number one UK stockist!

Another new supplier

I'm pleased to have just some of the range of scenic bases and accessories from Alvic Models this morning. I've carried the range for a couple of months now and these have been incredibly popular at model shows where modellers have been able to see for themselves the fantastic quality of these resin scenic bases.

Some of the range are now listed at www.fireflymodels.co.uk:

Miniatures PMC now listed

I've taken delivery this week of a series of 1/16 scale resin busts from my old friend Chris Mrosko in the United States:

These are a really great series, full of detail and nice casting.
