We are delighted to announce that Plastic Soldier Company has acquired Xyston Miniatures We have great plans for this excellent line and will be rolling out new releases in both Siocast and metal - stay tuned ! As we are VAT registered (Scotia Grendel was not) we will have to put up prices to include VAT BUT the good news is we will not be doing this until 1st March so take advantage of the old low prices now before the end of the month ! For the moment we will keep the existing Xyston website and webstore separate from Plastic Soldier Company. www.theplasticsoldiercompany.co.uk

You would think that PSC would focus on increasing their production on the own stuff so we had more readily get them. Seems like they are always behind on production.

It would also be fantastic news if they actually started to reproduce the Corvus Belli figures in metal, something that was mentioned previously but has yet to happen. Getting hold of the originals is nigh impossible and they are beautiful castings 😤

They already have Pacto armies based on Xyston for MeG on their websites. Not a perfect balance for DBA but much cheaper than metal. Likely to be easier to drill holes for spears through the resin.

They do look good, not sure what happened to the company, Ishould have enough to knock up a few different Celtic options, Carthaginian and a Spanish. I seem to remember Xyston being somewhat 'overlarge' for 15mm.

Great news! Does anyone know what sort of plastic it is? I have recently had some very brittle plastic figuren and I found clipping and drilling very hard to do without other parts snapping off.
Any experience with these figures?
