I'm really starting to like some of the stuff coming out from MSB Toys. It's different, its a bit off the wall, but it is appealing to me. Might have to make my first purchase here soon.

The last one is a 200mm Resin Kit, a damn sight too big IMO, but still, nicely done.

I like the aquatic thing :)
Their sculpts seem to be improving, a very good sign, they are definately always imaginative

deep one if you're a lovecraft fan.
The muscle sculpting is very good.
The kit is not only too big/expensive for me, but the continental shelf for a sword is off-putting.

I've got an ever growing list of MSB Toys minis I'd like...

They really are getting it together in this scale now. A lot of their earlier stuff was not good once you had it in hand.
These ones look cracking - especially the toad-dude.
Looks like they're ditching Apocalypse too. Good move, the guy was a bell-end.

Hrmmm, wonder if we can get together a larger order for folks and see about getting a bit of a 'deal'.
There are three our four that I definitly would pick up.
Fish guy is my favorite in this bunch and the frog guys in the earlier ones.

I like the frogs and the rhinos and also some of their pigs! I'm more and more convinced I'll be getting some of their stuff soon...

Check their site out Nathan - they're looking for people to distribute their stuff.... Could be another money spinner.

Just a word of warning here folks:
I'd be a little circumspect about ordering from Apocalypse at the moment. I've had word of many problems with MSB orders and that they are pretty well trying to shaft the MSB lads. I'd see if you couldn't get them direct from MSB if I were you.
Probably won't happen at the mo, cos they can't get their greens or moulds back apparently.
Bummer :(

Some cool looking sculpts there. Not really anything I would want to pick up though.

Thanks for the heads up. Damn shame!

I want all the Monkey King figures, including the big Monkey. I ordered from Apocalypse two months ago and so far......nothing.
Not a happy bunny:mad:

Neither are the guys from MSB. Apocalypse are shafting them royally and soilling their name at the same time. They are apparently having problems getting any form of contact with Apocalypse themselves, and this is to get back their greens, masters and moulds.
Utterly shoddy in anyones book.... Let's hope it Apocalypse that pays the price, not the people with the talent.

That is really not cool! I think they should have maybe been a bit sneakier in getting their greens back before canceling their contract. Lawyers going to get involved?

Well it looks like they got a result as the store is now open...

Indeed they have! Got an email the other day, and the lads seem to have sorted things out. All their stuff is now available straight from the horses mouth as it were.
Good stuff. Now they can get on with some sculpting :D

Bugger...just went to order something and the shipping is a little excessive - 11 Euros on a 4.50 Euro order...
Does anyone know if there is going to be a UK source for these..?

It might be worth emailing them and pointing out that p&p cost - they've only just set it up and it could very well be an oversight.

It might be worth emailing them.
You mean I should actually do something about it instead of just moaning on here....y'know it might just work :thumb:

you know, the more I look at that aquatic guy, the more I am getting the urge to paint it...

Got this in the post today:

It's a beautiful piece I have to say. Cast quality is excellent and he's a really quirky little chap. Spot on.
Got some of their new 28mm minis too. They look to be cast out of better quality white metal now and have far better defined fine detailing.
