Hi folks, My inventory of Warriors head sets is running low, but (horror-of-horrors) I can't find a web site that carries them. I'm even having trouble with the Warriors Scale Models Inc web site. Are they gone? Does anyone know where I can find their products? I see only a smattering of them on eBay.

I've always loved their stuff!

If they're no longer in business, any suggestions on 1/35 German heads?
I've always thought that Verlinden's heads were too large (more like 1/32).
Thanks

You can also try the Ultra Cast heads and hands sets:

or even Hornet and Wolf sets:

And of course Alpine Miniatures:

All excellent sculpting!

Cheers,

Thanks guys. The Hornet heads are just as nice, and the Alpine may be even better, but the selection isn't nearly as extensive.

Too bad Warriors is gone. I wish I knew what happened to them and their molds.

I was talking to one of my wholeseller and he said the Warrior is flashing back up. So watch and see. My guess is you"ll see them at Squardon.


Cheers,

I don't know what Hornet is thinking, but they've boosted their prices around 50% since the last time I bought any!
