Grishnak Sisters


Irbis

Recommended Posts

Sadly when tryng to use the link on one of their pages I got a 404. Will ask some of my Russian speaking friends at work to help me with this. I'm a bit scared to order from a new source before hearing some opinions on their shipping time outside Russia and how safe it is but I'm also worried that by the time I work myself up to place an order they will be already out or closed down.

 

EDIT: copying some information from Dakka, thank you to the posters from there:

"They will be on the western market, definately.
But at the moment, the guys from Grishnak are improving the production, so that every customer will recieve their orfder without it being late.
ETA of such improvements being done is the end of june.
Their own website is in the works, but it won`t have any direct sales/shopping carts to avoid you know whom. So emailing them will be required

Paypal and qiwi are the two ways of payment. They will try to sell through ebay as well.
The price tag will be around 1500 roubles, which is about 15 pounds at the moment.

And indeed they know how to speak english http://www.dakkadakka.com/s/i/a/c944477abc92c1c101da485e07ff06d8.gif"

Honestly, have GW forgotten the entire concept of supply-and-demand? The market demands new Sisters models but they refuse to supply them, so we don't give then our money and everyone is miserable, but if these Third Party Companies can provide what Games Workshop refuses to then what reason have we to not take our business elsewhere? It's our right as consumers goddamnit, and the idea that we shouldn't be allowed to use these Third Party models just because they come from another said companies is the height of childish spite and pettiness, it's a Company that's dominated the market for years throwing it's metaphorical toys out of the pram and crying foul because you chose not to put up with their bull. GW need to learn that if they doesn't want us using their competitors' products then they need TO MAN THE censored.gif UP AND START ACTUALLY COMPETING. They need to give a censored.gif about what their customer base wants and provide a better product than their rivals or their business will dry up as people grow tired of their nonsense and leave.

Hell, just look at the mess regarding "Spots the Space Marine" (see the BBC, Electronic Frontier Foundation, The Guardian, and Huffington Post articles). Instead of protecting IP they ACTUALLY OWN and spending money to update this IP and keep them fresh in customers and potential customers' minds, they wast time and money hiring lawyers for what is guaranteed to be frivolous lawsuits.
Legal team makes money no matter what actually. So part of your cash goes to pay a group of lawyers all the time.

They have now posted an email address on their link

Shipping will apparently take 2-4 weeks to the UK. I dont know where you located

The problem GW was having wasn't with casting the sleeves, it was with making multi-part kits with sleeves that could be constructed in different poses without looking weird because of how the sleeves flow.

 

Sadly, this is still a problem, and always will be. That's why the Skitarii are all monopose.

I can live with monopose Sisters.

 

That aside Kelly and Goodwin said casting issues at the last Gamesday. No idea of that still applies or not but plastic does come with a lot of limits to cast properly.

Same here. I would prefer it over losing the sleeves. It would just be nice to have plastic models. Either way, I will continue giving GW my money, so . . .

There's also another company that does some very nice minatures that can be used for things like Celestine, Celestians, and Repenta. Sadly I can't link due to some of their stuff being very NSFW. I would, however, offer a search term, that should be within the rules. Toughest Girls of the Galaxy 2. Should be the first result. Click "Campaign" and start scrolling. Again, NSFW, and I mean it.

 

That said, some of their stuff would be right at home in both Dark Eldar and Slaanesh-themed armies.

 

EDIT: Some images I managed to aquire.

We ALL know about Raging Hormones already. People have made it a point to constantly bring them up every chance they get since they were announced as an idea yonks ago.

Well, to be fair, their non-cheese cake stuff is nice.

They've already popped up on ebay: http://ebay.co.uk/itm/131824434924?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&_mwBanner=1

 

Grishnak is supposed to be getting a proper store up for English speakers as well.

Someone paid $105 for 5 knock-off Sisters of Battle?

 

 

Interrogator-Chaplain Ezra said he likes Raging hormones!

 

BURN THE HERETIC!

DIdn't say I liked the company, just that they had some usable minatures. :P
Not really your fault, it's just that the general consensus here is that we don't really like them and we're tired of hearing about them. I personally despise those models, but others don't feel as strongly.

 

Either way, thank you for thinking of us!

 

Edit: I guess it's possible I don't speak for the majority of sisters players on the forum, but i think i do
