Busy month!
New out (still no photos of sets so a few pre production shots added here) IRAQI Republican Guard (RG) which can be used as Iraqi Army or just about any Middle East army. These are all armed with AK's, RPG's, RPK's etc with M1 helmets and a 4 pocket chest rig.
LMGs:
Also just added are the conversions by Piers of some of our figures into a completely new range Middle East Generic (MEG):
I have head swapped the older heads I gave Piers originally for my new much improved M1 pot:
The sniper figure is not as seen, he now has aload of netting draped over his head and shoulders.
Brian has also converted some of our figures for his own project based on the Congo:
And for those of you who are not on the Guild of Ambush Alley forum, the OIF American sets look like these lads:
the initial casts of the US Army during Operation

ACU uniforms.
Have fun!

Hello to all of you out there.

December 2008
Merry Christmas Everybody!
We have two new big wintery releases this festive season, starting with a completely new range of winter US GI's dressed in the late 1944 early 1945 M43 uniform and scarves and great coats suitable for the icy and snowy battles in the Ardennes in the Battle of the Bulge, shadowed forrests and concrete fortifications of the Seigfried Line to invasion of bombed towns and Cities of Germany.
At the same time we have expanded the Winter German range to include those less well equiped formations of the late war German Infantry man. Dressed mostly in the M44 field grey economy uniform and head scraves worn under their helmets, these infantry can be used as Volks Grenadiers, German Infantry, Waffen SS and can be mixed with the other Winter Germans in padded uniforms to give a realistic rag tag late 1944 early 1945 German infantry appearance or used independantly in their own units.
As a special treat for Christmas any order after December 10th until New Years Day of a value of £20 or over will get a free exclusive Lamercraft never released Ardennes SS command figure (1 of 3 never released - random selection)
What will 2009 hold? Currently Elhiem Figures has a number of figures waiting to get moulded these include : Pulp Monsters and creatures, Imperial Romans and a number of ongoing figures.

The new Elhiem Waffen SS have been delayed for a while.

15th August 2006
Elhiem Figures and Lamercraft Mouldings have joined forces! As the same sculpter did the work for Lamercraft and Elhiem Figures, they are fully compatable. As with the earlier Elhiem Figs, the Lamercraft are based on small metal bases.
All Lamercraft metal figures will now be available using the online shop on this website to make ordering easier.
This isn't the end for Lamercraft, new sets are already planned in the similar style that Lamercraft has bench marked. They will also continue to be based on the same metal bases to continue the ranges smoothly.
1st August 2006
The first of the commissions is now on sale (see the 'Other Figures'). The Polish Home Army of the Warsaw Uprising, sponsored by Olivier V. This ten figure set shows the resistance members in between battles equipped in a mix of captured SS and home made uniforms with German and British weapons give a nice rag tag appearance. My particular favourite is the Officer in civilian gloves.
With a little modification these figures can be converted into any irregular force fighting the Nazis.
A photo will appear soon, in the meantime let me assure you that these are up to the quality and standard that you have come to expect from elhiemfigures.
If you are interested in getting a set of figures commissioned, please read the commission page on the left menu and then get in contact with us.
July 2006
Elhiem Figures is proud to announce the release of the first of its Generation 2 figures. The Gen2 figures are designed to be slot based so they can fit on any number of commercialy available uniform bases. The figures come supplied with a 20mm small round plastic base (the size of a UK penny) which create a simple and speedy way to base the figure (no more searching for old coins/washers or cutting up plastic card). In addition, because the figures dont have huge slabs of metal under their boots the figures can be easily freed of the metal tang with a simple snip, making the figures easy to adapt for vehicles and models or even if you prefer the traditional method of basing.
So, what are these new Gen2 figures? The first releases are the US infantry (EU02 - 05) and Waffen SS officers (EW-05)
The round bases can be purchased seperatly from me if required to base any other figures (such as the Gen 1 figs).
Some of the older packs have now been expanded such as EW04b which has an additional 12th SS HJ figure added to the existing EW04, and EH02 is now a duplicate (x3 of the same figure) figure (hooded smock German with MP44).
The Value packs will be expanded to include the new releases.
June 2006
23rd June
Massive restock and also Value Packs added to make bulk orders easier.
14th June
In an order to provide you the customer an easier way to buy, we have added a 'Value Packs' section. There will be various value options to choose from. This shop page will be activated shortly so keep checking back!
The first of the commissions has been taken, more details will be given whn the figures are ready. If you are interested in getting any figures made email us.
1st June
Pending the new US Infantry, EU-02 has been redesignated EU-01. The shopping basket function has been turned back on as well.
Here is a sneek peek of the US Infantry figures :
As long as these figures come out of the moulds without any problems the US infantry (riflemen, NCO's, Bars, Bazooka) should be on sale very soon!
Commissions
I was recently approached by TQD Castings to take over any future WW2 commissions as they wish to concentrate on their 1946 and fantasy ranges, so here is the details:
Elhiem Figures will produce any WW2 figures on your behalf. All you have to do is provide the ideas and the cost of getting the sculpt made. All other production costs will be handled by Elhiem Figures.
What do you get? You get to see the figures you want to see finally made. You get 10 sets of each figure sent to you. You can have your name listed as a 'sponsor' on the listing of the figure (fame at last).
What does Elhiem Figures get? We get full ownership of the design, masters, sculpts and moulds. The figures belong to Elhiem Figures and you have no legal claim to any sales or resale value or copyright in anyway. In order to get figures made there are a lot of risks/costs associated that EF is willing to take on as long as the end product belongs to Elhiem Figures.
In addition, any ranges that look promising Elhiem Figures may expand at some future point.
So what do I need to do?
Contact us and let Elhiem Figures know what you are after, as detailed as possible. There is no minimum amount of figures that have to be ordered, however, a small commission may take longer to get into moulds (due to the min amount of figures in each mould). We will then forward you the quote based on your specification (future changes will have to be priced accordingly). Once the quote is agreed, a contract and invoice will be forwarded to you. The contract needs to be signed and the invoice paid in advance.
Problems?
Should the figures not be up to your standards once completed, no refund is available. I would advice buying a few samples of the ElhiemFigures range to see what quality to expect.
Change of mind, as long as no figures have been started changes can be made (more complex designs will require requoting). No refunds on payments made can be given if the figures have been started and only a 25% repayment can be made if the job is canceled before work is undertaken. This is harsh, it is in place to prevent time wasters.
Elhiem Figures reserve the right to refuse commissions at any time for any reason. If we turn down your commission after payment, we will refund your money.
There is always a time element to this work a rough date will be given at the time of the agreement, however, we cannot be bound by this time due to the many variables involved. Smaller orders will have a faster sculpt time, but longer mould time as we have a min of 15 figs in a mould.
Previous Updates:
Forum disaster! The company that run the forum server have had a bit of a problem. So if you are lost with out the forum you will be glad to know Daryl has set us up an emergency back up forum http://20mm.proboards76.com/index.cgi that is now been used as a back up forum just incase the main forum goes down again!
Whats in the pipeline? We have a number of US infantry packs in the pipeline plus a few extra figures to supplement existing packs.
New Gallery Page for all those of you who want to send us in your pictures of elhiemfigures painted up (pro or beginner, all are welcome).
Postage has been reduced, (initial estimates were a little pessimistic).
April 2006
The Elhiem Figures website goes live!
Please take a look around the site and buy some of the figures, you know you want too :)
