Landknechts and Desert Foxes advancing of Farnborough!

By the time that most of you will be reading this, we’ll be well on our way down South for the Warfare show in Farnborough, so there will be no magic number this week.  Normal service will resume next Friday.

As the last standing two-day show in the country, we’d class Warfare as a ‘major’ event in our Calendar and we always like to have some tasty new releases available.  This time round is no exception.   Firstly, ahead of the official online release next week, we will have some of our quite wonderful Landsknecht pikemen. 

No new releases, but something nice to look at.

Once again, we have reached the weekend which means a regular Baccus update, and this week is no exception.   As usual we start with the Magic order number, which this week stands at #30245.   The usual disclaimer applies that, due to arcane reasons beyond which even the wisest of men would be foolish to investigate, there may be a couple of orders prior to this number that did not make the cut this week, and perversely, a couple after this may, even now, be heading to their ultimate destination.

A Golden Ticket winner and a new range released

Hi Everyone,

Back to what some might call ‘normal’ for this week’s Baccus update, as we have the usual updates, another Golden Ticket winner, and the release of a new range of figures.   Yes, folks, it’s all happening at Baccus HQ!

As is traditional, we will start with this week’s magic order number, which stands at #30164.   We are now well on track to get order turnaround back to a more acceptable level, and if all goes well, this will happen ahead of our previous projection.   Rumours that has been achieved by chaining the casters to their machines and only feeding them if they hit their production quotas are greatly exaggerated…well, perhaps not ‘greatly’…

Putting my cards on the table...

I usually leave posting of the news to Peter but having seen some outside comments that are not helpful, it has prompted me to make a brief statement to clarify our situation. 

Just a couple of flagsheets this week...

Following in from last week’s ‘technical issues’ preventing us from producing a magic order number, steps have been taken.  Lindy has rounded up all the little critters, including the strays, and held them securely in a pen. Sadly, a couple went feral and started getting a little too aggressive, but a sharp word or two from her soon restored the peace.   We now have been able to grade and sort them, giving us a count for this week of #29770.

It's new release time at Baccus!

Hello everyone and here’s the latest weekly update from Team Baccus.   Apologies, but for various, 'technical reasons’', I can’t bring you a magic number this week.   Don’t worry, we’ll soon get the rip in the fabric of the Universe stitched back together allowing us to once again regain our full powers thereby releasing the Magic Number from its incarceration by the Dark Powers.

Moving on quickly from the otherworldly realms, we’ve got a nice juicy new release this week, and it’s a doozy!

It's new release time from Baccus

Hi everyone, welcome to the weekly Baccus update and semi-coherent ramblings.   Before getting to the really interesting bits, I’ll start off proceedings with this week’s magic number, which is  #29861.   Now, onwards with something new…

And the next Baccus Golden Ticket Winner is....

I am very pleased to announce that our newest monthly  Golden Ticket Winner is Callum Wiles.  Refreshingly,  Callum is definitely at the younger end of our customer age range, and now has £60 to spend on more Baccus goodies of his choice.

If you would like to enter the monthly Baccus Golden Ticket draw, it really is simple.  Just place an order with us for £60 or more and you will get an automatic entry.  What could be simpler?

Winter is coming...

Yes, I know it’s only just turned into Autumn, but if some shops are already stocking huge amounts of Halloween and Christmas products, then I can get in on the act with a suitably themed little range.  However, we first have the usual weekly magic number, which this week stands at #29824.

Sooo…what is this all about?   Well,  some of our customers got together and ganged up on us to put quite a bit of pressure for us do some Napoleonic figures in winter/bad weather dress.

Afrika Korps advancing on Newbury...

Just a quick update this week, a day early.   Friday will see us on the road travelling down to Newbury ahead of the Colours show on the 14th.    This means that there will be no magic number this week, but we will get things back to normal next time around.
