Reaper Miniatures Ceases Production of P-65 Heavy Metal Minis

Jan 30, 2013

I got word from Ron Hawkins over at our pals Reaper Miniatures that effective immediately the company was going to stop production of the P-65 Heavy Metal Miniatures line. Sure, it’s bad news because I think the line is excellent as well as very affordable but, as the news release points out, the new Dark Heaven: Bones line of plastic minis has really taken off. Obviously the Bones line is an even better value than the metal figures so the news is in reality good and not bad.

From Reaper:

To our valued customers,

Effective immediately, we are ceasing production of our P-65 Heavy Metal Miniatures line.

The incredible success of our Dark Heaven: Bones miniatures line has given us the opportunity to produce more affordable gaming and hobby options for the miniatures hobby. While P-65 was very successful for us, we have decided not to invest any further into P-65 Heavy Metal products and rather invest those dollars into Bones.

We are currently filling all orders with the existing inventory we have on hand, but we will not be casting any more P-65 products to fill these orders.

As of February 4th we will no longer accept any future P-65 order requests.
