Hasslefree Miniatures Newsletter

Some interesting bits and pieces from Hasslefree Miniatures...

Almost There!
The saga of the big premises move is almost over :) The new unit in Wales (5 minutes from Caerphilly for those of you who have been asking) has been checked and paperwork sent etc. Jenn and I have cleared out a tiny corner of our old house in Wales to nest in like birds while we fix the rest of it up. Accountants, lawyers and so on have been consulted. Just some last arrangements and then the physical move!
(Obviously 'just' may be underplaying it a little, not entirely the easiest job to move a working office filled with metal to a different country :) )

Current plan is we will only shut down the website for 24-48hrs, just long enough to change some backend stuff and allow you guys to get back to buying the HF awesomeness.

In the meantime though Kev is still turning out quality minis and we have added another restock to the system. So let's have a nose...
Resin Master - Jason Shaw, Secret Agent
'Jason Shaw' is one of the world's best spies, Maya's erstwhile partner and probably not his real name. Armed here with twin Tec-9s and holstered pistols, Jason is shown mid firefight on a mission.
Those of you following Kev's artist page may have noticed he recently made a very nice Tec-9, as always when Kev makes a gun he is particularly proud of it ends up on everything for like 3 months so we should probably expect vikings, sci-fi chimps and spellcasting jellyfish all armed with twin Tec-9s next! ;)
Resin Master - Maya, Secret Agent
Maya is another of our anachronistic spy outfit from around the world. A tough, no-nonsense, woman favouring the mini-dress and automatic weapons, in this case a brace of Tec-9s.
Huge Restocks!
A confluence of two events have led to us sliding out of stock on a few of our items, rest assured it's not a permanent state of affairs. Basically our move, and all the extra work associated with it, coincided with a huge backlog at one of our casters.
We have now started being restocked and have added a number of the items to the website already.
Moderns - Oakley, Rose, Dionne b, Hassle, Frank Cisco, Ken & Maria c.

Fantasy - Lenore, Gwen, Concubine b, Concubine a, Harem Girl, Dynamic Kalee, Cheerleader Summer & Luna.

We've also added in restocks of Deano, Louise b and Wolsey meaning the Teenage GangPost-Apoc Gang and the Spec Ops Squad have become available again!
Slight Pre-Orders - The Five Eight
Slight Pre-Orders - The Five Eight
OK, we haven't had a chance to sort out the newest restocks, so there's no metal images etc and won't be until the middle of the week. However with the upcoming move we thought we'd get this moving as fast as possible so you guys can get your hands on our newest releases.

These won't ship until Wednesday, so technically it's a slight pre-order (hence the title). And just to be clear, these listings are for the METAL minis :)

The Five Eight are part of the deep space exploration arm of the Galactic Navy, led by Lt. Col Morrison. They come outfitted in the standard issue 'Lobo class' powered armour and helmet. They are all armed with the standard KW10DU/F  'Shard' Assault Rifle, capable of firing both 10mm depleted uranium and flechette sabot rounds.
This multipack consists of Lt.Col Morrison, Lt Weisser, Sgt. Rowland and Privates de la Fuente and Chapman at a 10% discount over individual prices!

And Finally...
If you're over on the Forum of Doom you'll have hopefully noticed we have managed to sort out the overdue Sculpting Contest problems. There'll be a separate notice for that and we'll be working through this evening to make sure you get your personal emails with the results of your entries.
There's no mail tomorrow (Mon 22nd), back to normal on Tuesday.
Keep your eye on our FB page over the next ten days as we'll be updating you as to the comings and goings of us and the move and so on. Come October your orders will have the slight smell of song, leek and sheep! ;)
'til next time.
Arty.
