Note for overseas buyers

I have just filled an order for a customer in the USA for 60 cavalry and the horses alone came in at just under the 2kg weight limit for airmail, meaning that the riders had to be boxed seperately.

This has a great bearing on the cost of postage and I just wanted to let prospective buyers from overseas know about this, so that they may wish to revise any future orders downwards in order to come within the 2kg weight limit. I would estimate from the weight of horses and riders, that probably about 40 cavalry (horses and riders combined) would be within the weight limit, before costs start to rise significantly. I hope this is of some help to anyone considering placing an order.

The cavalry are proving to be very popular, although my latest casting bill of over £1000.00 (mainly on horses) scared the living daylights out of me when it arrived yesterday, as I have never had one that big before. I was hoping to release the civilian labourers etc, soon, but may have to wait a little longer yet, until I have cleared my debt :-)

First cavalry available now.

The Prussian and Austrian Cuirassiers have arrived from Griffin Moulds and are ready to be assigned to their various depots. The listing of available figures is on the right side of the front page, as usual.

I hope to have the engineers/labourers, drovers and wagon drivers available before too long.
