Litko Review

This morning, the sullen unionised despondency of our national postal service arrived with a parcel from the US. A mere 8 days after I'd ordered (on a Sunday evening I think), Litko had packed the order in a box, and got it here to me in Blighty. That's damn good service in my book. Amazon aren't even usually that quick for stuff they've got in stock, and they're only 90 miles up the road.

 Litko SBH 15mm set

My first thought upon opening the parcel was 'crikey, they're small', but then I fished out a few Splintered Lands miniatures and remembered how small they are too. So no worries there.

This is my first ever bit of Litko kit, and I have to say I'm impressed. Well cut, without sharp edges, nice finish, and generally a good thing. My only gripe is the lettering is a bit hard to see, but that's as much my failing eyesight than anything else. They're pretty thick too - see bottom pic.

In terms of service from Litko - 10/10. $10 for the set, and 8 days to ship from US to UK is bloody good.

Overall, a great little pack from Litko, and I think pretty essential if you play as much Songs as I do.

Made to Measure

I wasn't able to make Salute this year - It never seems to coincide with me having money spare to make the trip, pay the door, and buy tonnes of stuff I'll never paint. Additionally, I've come down with what I presume is an inner ear infection last night. No pain, but no sense of balance either. So lucky that I hadn't decided to go. Nonetheless, chatting online with my mate Pete from down the road (you think I've got a one track gaming mind at the moment?) who did go to Salute, and he mentioned he'd seen Litko's SBH set.

Made the order, and looking forward to it turning up. No other news, except I'm pondering World of Twilight (no, not the ruddy Vampire telly nonsense).
