WELCOME TO THE BACCUS 6MM SITE

Baccus specialises in the design and production of wargames figures and accessories in the 6mm scale. Although it is often overlooked by the dominance of the 15 and 28mm scales, the smaller figures offer huge advantages in terms of flexibility, prices and ease of painting. It often comes as a pleasant surprise to our new customers that they find 6mm figures easier and quicker to paint than their coarser-scale brethren.

4th May 2024 :: It's been a busy old week...

Before I launch into this week’s waffle, just a quick word about this time of year in the UK. The April/May period is always one of extreme pressure at Baccus HQ. We kick off with Salute, which is like a huge wargamery black hole, sucking time and effort into itself. We’ve only just started to recover from this event and then we fall headlong into the Easter holidays, which creates two consecutive short working weeks and usually coincides with staff taking extra days off, (post-Salute recovery mode), and when we finally lurch over the line into May, we have two bank holidays ate each end of the month. To say that this usually creates a few problems with getting orders out in a timely manner, is an understatement. All of which brings us to the magic order number for this week, which currently stands at #28737.

This is a record for us, not just in the sheer number of orders turned around in a week, but also by volume of metal involved. Prior to packing and processing, orders are delivered to the admin team in plastic bins. In a good week we will process around 16 or 17 of these bins. Last week, we processed 23 bins. Well done to the team, Tony, Tom and Andrew for casting the little chaps and to Lindy for single -handedly getting them all sent on their way!

I will shortly be posting a list of the shows that we will be attending for the rest of the year....

26th Apr 2024 :: I’ve got a Golden Ticket…

Hi there, I’m Lindy and I’ve taken over the update for this week. To be honest, I do most of the real work around here, so it’s only fair. I’ll do the boring bit this week, so I will let you know that the current order number is #28605.

Now read on…

19th Apr 2024 :: 'What are you working on?'

After last week’s frantic flurry of new releases, it’s going to be a quieter update this week, but first, we have the magic order number, which this week stands at #28547.

As you may well know, Baccus travels to a lot of wargames shows. If there is on overwhelming subject of conversation and endless source of requests and queries, it is, ‘What are you working on at the moment?’. It’s a fair enough question, and here, for the benefit of all of you who can’t collar your friendly purveyor so small fine scale figurines, is a sort of Work in Progress report. (No piccies, so it’s sort of boring visually.)
