1066 Stamford bridge & Hastings Battles : Viking & Saxons and Norman Armies Sprews and Figures
The last time I checked the On-line Catalogue, only the "Masters" were posted. Now pictures of their "Sprews" and their individual "Figures" are posted.
Man, they look great!!! Three cheers to the Strelets Team!
Re: 1066 Stamford bridge & Hastings Battles : Viking & Saxons and Norman Armies Sprews and Figures
Seconded! I cannot wait for these sets to be released. I missed the original release of the saxon, Viking and Norman sets so it will be great to get those as well as the new models!!
Re: 1066 Stamford bridge & Hastings Battles : Viking & Saxons and Norman Armies Sprews and Figures
I agree these are lovely sets and I appreciate that there are commercial considerations for Strelets but if you buy both sets then there you will have duplicates of most the figures in order to obtain the figures that are unique to each set.
Strelets are you able to tell us exactly how many of each sprue will be in each set?

I was a little disaapointed because at the end you get many repetitions of both old and new sprues, if you buy them all Big Boxes
I think i will only buy Stamsford bridge and Norman army..
Saxon army includes same sprues as Stamsford, but:
PLUS 1 special sprue of saxons, more standing saxon "fighting" and "before battle" sprue
MINUS viking standard sprues, 1 special viking sprue and less fighting and standing standard saxons
So, with Stamsfords you get all nes excepet but one special sprue, and some less standard saxons. if you had all the previous Minisets and Big Box 910 , 911, it is not pointing in buying Big Box 912
Re: 1066 Stamford bridge & Hastings Battles : Viking & Saxons and Norman Armies Sprews and Figures
It is a bit if a pain I must admit but my passion for this period will force me to get all three. At least I will get a nice big saxon army! While trying to ignore the blow to the wallet!!
