We can only hope that Russia doesn't decide to incite a civil war even further and try to annex Kiev.

They moved from the Crimea to Kiev (capital of the Ukraine) at the end of last year, and I imagine they are still having problems getting things sorted out. They noted that not all employees came with them, also. Quality and supply of plastic were also noted as a problem, that they say hopefully has been resolved now.

OH jeez, i ofcourse knew about the current situation in Ukraine and Crimea but I didnt know they relocated. I didnt want to sound like that kind of guy. I was simply questioning it mostly due to the fact that their 1/35 line has been coming out steadily and on time, but if thats the case I'm sorry Embarrassed

It's that kind of like almost war thing between that's been in the papers between Russia and the Ukraine? MiniArt was based in the Crimea, which has basically been taken away from the Ukraine by pro Russian rebels. MiniArt had to relocate away from the Crimea, and that and staying alive has probably been more important than the release schedule to them....

It seems that several kits on their roster are taking very long to get released. This is a shame beacause although their figures are usually kind of rough, they are incredibly diverse in their range and subject. I personally am waiting for the Tsarist Russian Guard figures.
