Rackham? is that the company which makes cool OOP minis which are so hard to get?

I think that for us painters rackham already died some time ago.

Yep, that's a pitty... RIP I believe they commited a slow suicide when they decided to cease producing those precious, beautiful metal miniatures and went for those ugly prepaints...

Rackham as a miniature business has been long dead for me. The rackham that died now was a toy manufacturer ;)

Oh thats a shame, I had only recently discovered Rackham, and loved some of their miniatures :(

Hopefully I will still be able to get hold of a few after christmas, before they become rare and overly expensive.
