To be honest ... our caster is super slammed trying to our Chibi order done and his own KS. After begging him ... he is trying to make sure he casts all the Apes for me next week (we'll see ... no promises).

After the Chibi onslaught is over, we have a big box of teams for Trollforge to convert. Gnormes are most likely the next team to get converted.

I have to admit I really like those Ape Miniatures and when they are at 35$ I am pretty sure I have to buy them.
But the main question is as wich teams can they be really used apart of Orcs (already have 3 Orc Teams).

#2 - Orc
#3 - Human, Slann, Apes of Wrath, Chaos (put little horned helmets on the Chimps)

Wasn't there a Norse "list" for them? I seem to remember that from when they first came out, and team package 3 would cover that.

The Apes have their own custom roster being tested in various leagues. Shteve-O has a version in his signature. :)

I also like them as Humans!

Since my league doesnt support a custom roster (wich in general makes me happy) and I dont know about any tournaments wich would support that roster I wont use the Apes as Ape-Team.
But Chaos or Slann are atleast some options since right now I still lack both teams in my collection.

There are 4 moulds to make the teams.

I have castings from 3 of them. As soon as I have the castings from the last mould ... they'll be in the store. I was promised them by Friday .... I have an email in to the caster to see what happened.

Tom's at Adepticon this weekend then going in to hospital (iirc from the Impact forum), so I doubt there's much movement at the moment.

I finally have sorted through the castings of the Ape moulds that we received from the caster. This means the Ape teams will be in the store by end of today!!!! (yeah). We also will have the Gnome team in the store as well. As soon as the database update pushes through these will be on the site.

We only received half our order for the Ape teams once everything was sorted so they might run out of stock quickly for this initial batch but we have already ordered more.

We currently can sell a total of 9 Ape teams (in any of the 3 configurations). We have a max of 8 of #1, 9 of #2 and 9 of #3 (but still only 9 in total of any).

Thanks for the patience while we figured out the moulds and the castings.

In addition to the Ape teams ... we'll have a 6 Contraption + 10 Gnomes + Head Coach for $35 available as well. An Elfball version of the Gnome team can be purchased for $28 by buying a 3 pack of Contraptions and the 11 Gnome pack.
