Chris Mrosko AKA Chilihead of New World Miniatures has announced that the company is to cease trading on December 31st 2011. It is sad news to see another of the smaller businesses that make this hobby so interesting close up shop, there is however some good news and that is that New World Miniatures will honour all orders placed by December 25th 2011. So there is at least some Christmas cheers to be had. To New World Miniatures we ultimately say good bye and hope to see you return at some point in the future, failing that we wish you well in your future endeavours.

Will 'Miniatures PMC' carry any of the NWM line or are they doomed to be dead and gone forever? I dont know whether to buy up the figures I want now....

Hey Chris. Sorry things did not work out for you. I know a small business is always a Crap Shoot, but the figures you produced were great. I always hoped you would get to the Halftrack crews we talked about. Good luck and I hope to see you at AMPS in April.

Hi Chris,
Really sorry to hear this. I do hope someone will take up your excellent range of figures, your LRDG chaps were streets ahead of anything else in that genre.
Good luck with whatever you decide to do in the future, I wish you every success.
Cheers
Al

Chris, I was hoping you'd say that. Now, repeat slowly after me, "Halftrack crews, half-track crews."

This is sad news. I'm working on the US SF bust at the minute and its a real beauty. Good luck with the new venture - whatever it may be.

I need some help please. I purchased a Warriors Scale Models M-109A2 Turret Interior kit a while ago and either never had the instructions or lost them. Since I have looked at every modeling site I could find, I finally found Chris Mrosko on this one and am hoping that someone here, Chris himself since the company was his (I think) can help me find someone who could scan and email me a copy of the instructions. Thanks in advance for your help.

Robert, try sending Chris a private message. You can see the "message" tab under his name in these posts... Alternatively, you can try contacting him via his new venture "Miniatures PMC": http://miniaturespmc.com/
