Hi Kev,

There are four sets and a wall add on set finished to date. The two additional hand to hand sets and the wall set will appear in the upcoming catalog.
I think you will like the look of these two new sets coupled with the two current ones and the new wall sections. With a few of the single figures added it will give the impression of a fierce contest for that end of the compound. I can't wait to see all four sets photographed together as the paint masters for the new sets were just finished a few days ago now.

All the best,
Ken

Hi All, The Modelzone web site not to be confused with the any of there shops had 100 allocated to them they are now sold out, that left 200 for the other 40 shops, the Croydon store and there mail order department had orders for 48 three weeks ago that left 152 to divvy up between the other shops, now the croydon store have been and are still taking mail orders so if you want one you really need to get your finger out and order it, unlike the private Wassell set this one will sell out very fast as it is part of a new sub range for the Rorke’s Drift collection, i’m sure some of you remember how hard it was to get the Zulu Twilight set.

Sorry I don't mean to sound too aggressive but if you want it you need to get in there and order one or two or three.

Best regards

I picked up my set this morning from the Guildford store, they had ordered 8 from their Warehouse and received 2, which included my one.

Cheers

Next question is whens the add on piece due? Definitely need some more of that kraal wall to build it out more :wink2:

I think that is an interesting point... in the brochure wbritians released in september they said the rest of the kraal including a gate would be available in 2013. So I think we should expect a big update when the next brochure comes out as the last one was dedicated to american civil war figures. I think the winter brochure holds most of the answers for 2013....

Thus far for 2013 for ANZ....
New Hospital in January
Gun team in January
Hand to hand kraal set #2 in March
So what is coming out after March in terms of AZW? Is the real question.....

I expect one of the next 2 expected new kraal sets being sculpted will likely be another modelzone exlusive? That would bring the total to 4... The speculation of 6 seems high since they only did 3 +1 modelzone for the mealie bags hand to hand sets ie much larger perimeter than the kraal. Darkhorse idea... they do something at the biscuit wall as they never did a normal release outside of modelzone twilight exlcusive. Otherwise they turn to Isandlwana for inspiration as many of the named british officers have not been done outside of modelzone exlusives, hale's rocket battery, mounted NCC, mounted natal police etc.

I am only guessing here, but it will probably be printed toward the end of January and mailed sometime in February. Richard may be able to be more precise after the holidays.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all,
Ken
 
Re: MZ Exclusive William Britain Rorke's Drift " Repulsed" Fight for the Kraal

Merry Christmas to you and Ericka as well Ken, hope you both have a lovely holiday

Early Christmas present to myself; really like these two figure hand-to-hand sets

Have changed the 24th figure to see what different combinations look like

If anyone has a spare $300, there is one on Ebay at the moment. Paint is still wet and it's tripled in value, cheers, Robin.

I had my copies arrive in canada on christmas eve if that helps....
 
Re: MZ Exclusive William Britain Rorke's Drift " Repulsed" Fight for the Kraal

I emailed the Croydon office and was told that they all didn't arrive in time to dispatch over the Christmas holidays.
 
Re: MZ Exclusive William Britain Rorke's Drift " Repulsed" Fight for the Kraal

As I recieved an email stating that it was shipped on December 19th. Hopefully, this week, probably slow mail delivery due to the holidays.
 
Re: MZ Exclusive William Britain Rorke's Drift " Repulsed" Fight for the Kraal

I think that at the Modelzone Team have a lot of confusion. Before Christmas I was asked to pay by PayPal (payment regularly made the same day) my order of two Britains ‘Repulsed’ sets.

after the payment I was happy to receive the sahe day the following message... 'Hi Carlo, thank you for your payment, we will prepare your order for despatch today and I will be in touch on the 27th with your tracking number'....

After a long silence and my many reminders today I have received an e-mail where they write me that if I do not pay by January 13 my sets will go on sale.

I was afraid something like that but did not want to believe.
At this point I do not really know what to think, at least I hope to get my money!

I wonder if I can have this longed-for set!!!!!

...sigh!
