Hi Guys, those anyone know if "Think 180 Studios" are still in buisness and where I might purchase some of their figures?
I loved the OIF and OEF series of figures. I know MIG Productions marketed some of their work but not all of it (and the stuff I'm looking for!)
Thanks
Roy

Hi Roy,
they are stil out of Buisness. The owner and sculptor Jeff Meckely is now working with some other guys with New World Miniatures. They have nearly all the old Figures and produce some cool new modern stuff Figures including PMC and now insurgents.All in 1/35. Also Mig Productions have some of his old Figures in his catalog.
Greetings
Stefan

Think 180 is completely defunct. Most if not all masters were obtained by MIG Productions.
New World Miniatures does not carry any of the T180 line, nor purchased any of its masters.
Meckley has done several sculpts for the company though.

He didnt actually go bust. His company name was in conflict with another that already held it, so there was supposed to be a name change. Unfortunately he decided not to continue the company.

..a bit drastic perhaps on Mr. Meckely's part but I'm sure he had his reasons.
Thanks again Arnold, I'll keep an eye out for his older bits on ebay
