Legacy Miniatures is excited to announce that they have secured the license to the entire Confrontation back catalog, and will immediately start producing previously released and unreleased figures from this amazing and sorely missed miniatures line.
Confrontation was a game published by Rackham Entertainment until it entered liquidation in 2009, and some of the most amazing 28mm figures in the world ceased to be available at that time. Cyanide Studios, a prominent French video game developer, has acquired the Confrontation IP and has licensed the miniatures to Legacy Miniatures.
“We’re incredibly pleased”, said Vincent Fontaine Artistic Director of Legacy Miniatures and former Paint Director of Rackham Entertainment. “We’re starting out slowly and doing about 2 to 4 releases a month, some miniatures that never saw production before Rackham closed its doors.”
My best guess is that this Vincent Fontaine hired a Chinese contractor to do the manufacturing. Sales was simple: close an exclusive deal with CMON, done!
They always seem to price these models at about 30% more than I think they are worth. I know I harp on about it but I as so excited by C3 minis being available again and now so disappointed. I haven't purchased a single one and at present don't plan to despite having my wallet open and ready.
I fail to see the logic in the pricing, the selection and the communication of reasoning why.
Was I just expecting too much from this?
Maybe I am not the target market anymore.
Currently painting 15mm's with an extremely large brush - one step away from dipping them in the pot.
