Hi There,

This newsletter’s our first since Games Day UK and we thought we take the time to say a big thank you to our customers, make a few announcements and let you know what went on during the day if you didn`t make it to the event yourselves.

Thanks
Alan Bligh


 

Forge World at Games Day UK 07
Thank you to all the customers who came to Games Day UK this year and helped make the event such a great success. Quite literally thousands of you came and bought models, chatted to the designers and had a good look at our displays. On show was a fantastic new Siege of Vraks display board, concept sketches, works in progress and the ever popular 40k scale games of Aeronautica Imperialis. The crowds were certainly thick this year, and we`re sorry so many of you had to brave the crush to get what you wanted. We are looking into improving matters for next year!

For those of you that didn’t make it to the show, you can find a gallery of pictures we took at the event Here, so you too you can quake in horror at some of the real faces behind Forge World!

A number of exciting new projects were previewed at Games Day including the new Shadowsword conversion kit (for the plastic Baneblade), a Nurgle Renegade Preacher, Death Korps of Krieg Engineers, and some preview art from the forthcoming Imperial Armour Volume Six: Siege of Vraks Part 2. There was also our work in progress model of the 40K Imperial Reaver Titan which caused quite a stir, but suffice to say there`s a lot of work to be done on it before we see a production model, so it won’t be out yet! Keep an eye out on future newsletters for more information on these and other new models as they become available.

New Models Available on the 8th of October
In the run up to Games Day we bought out a lot of great new models to pre-order and at the show, all of which are now coming up for release on the week commencing the 8th of October, so here’s a re-cap of our current new releases, all of which are available to order now;

Order Delays and Royal Mail Industrial Action
Lastly a warning and an apology; currently owing to the exceptional demand for our models we are experiencing some delay it getting orders out as quickly as we would like, for which we are sorry. Unfortunately this problem is going to be further complicated by industrial action being held by the Postal Service in the UK which will take effect from the 4th to the 10th of October and will affect all airmail orders and orders using first class delivery within the UK. Orders made using Express delivery will not be affected as they use a different mail carrier. We can only apologise for any inconvenience this is going to cause and assure you we`ll be doing our best to get your orders out to you as soon as we can.
