Just added to the WIP Gallery are some pics of our very first unarmoured
samurai! We have in progress a not-Zatoichi, not-Yojimbo and a not-Lone
Wolf and carriage. Finishing touches are being done and then they will be
sent to the casters. A release date has not been determined.

should be ready in a few days.

The new sculpts are at the casters! Yippeee! Also added a third gallery
page devoted to a friend's scratchbuilt samurai castle. Take a look here!
New items have been added to the resources page 2. I'm always on the
lookout for new photos of our range in action. Please send your pics for
inclusion in the galleries! Too shy? Why not send me a testimonial to add
our page? I am thinking its time to add a new range to Kingsford
Miniatures. I will be talking to our caster during the summer about some
ideas I have!

July 25, 2009 Update
In the work in process gallery you can see the latest masters for the
not-movie heroes of Japanese cinema. A not-Zatoichi, not-Yojimbo and
not-Lone Wolf and Cub figures. Also, take a look at the galleries as I have
added new photos.
I forgot to mention we are conducting a poll on our Yahoo! Newsletter to
see what you would like us to make next. I'm scouting for a new range
which does not necessarily need to complement the Sengoku period we
currently make. To vote click on the link at the left and register at the
Newsletter. No waiting period!

Going away again! Shop is closed from Sep 5th to the 10th! We will take
orders but no invoices for shipping will be sent nor parcels. Resin horo are
being made and we are hoping to stock them by the end of September!
Horo were often worn by tsukai (field messengers) or even elite units.

Update to the WIP gallery. These greens are for new upcoming "At-Ease"
figures! I spoke with the resin caster and the horo probably won't be in
stock until late October. I am sending notices to those who have expressed
an interest in us making Ming troops. If you have not been contacted
please email and I will add you to the list. I will then send you a proposal.
Regards,
David

Start of our annual Christmas Sale! This year due to the size of the
catalogue there will be selected items from 10% to 40% off. Shipping
however will be calculated on the usual pricing of our range and not on the
discounted price. Order early because there are limited quantities in some
packs and to ensure your parcel arrives in time for the holidays!

This might be the last message before Christmas so I want to wish you all a
merry one and a happy New Year! We will stop shipping from Dec 24th to
Jan 5th. We will still take orders. Update on the resin horos. They are
turning out to be difficult to make in resin so they will not be available for
sale for awhile yet (maybe never). Some releases being planned for next
year are new standing ashigaru with yari, samurai with yari standing, and
sohei with missile weapons. Still thinking of a new range but nothing has
been firmed up yet.

Hi there! Hope you all had a Happy New Year! Latest news: Cavalcade
Wargames now carries the samurai range in the USA. So if you prefer to
order from the States go ahead and let them know I sent you!
We have reordered most of the range from the casters as inventories are
quite low. Not sure when we'll get it though.
I'll be talking with the sculptor shortly about this year's production line up.
More details to follow.
The Ming Syndicate is stuck at the halfway mark. If you are interested in
this send me an email asap as I will be talking with the current members
about what do shortly.
One more bit of news. Kingsford Miniatures will be at GOTTACON in
Victoria, BC from Feb 5, 6 and maybe the 7th.
