I can think of two

Squadron supposedly carries the Historex line, but they are currently out of almost anything of real interest. Michigan Toy Soldier also handles them. Both places are reliable to deal with. Mich Toy doesn't give any sort of discount, but you might have better luck getting what you want. Squadron's prices are better but they are often sold out.

I have gotten some really good deals on Historex figures off eBay, too.

I tried contacting Historex Agents in England and never got a reply. The Historex French web site is pretty interesting.

Haven't ordered Historex from them, but everything I have ordered came in super quick!

They have minimal stock

Last summer I checked and they had cleared out, discontinued or marked down much of their Historex stuff since Squadron became their official importer.

TRL is a really good company to deal with though. I highly recommend them also!

I just took a look...

...at Historex Agents in the UK I know they are NOT a US source but the are a top notch company and have been Historex's agent for about 40 years-and my choice for figures since my first dealings with them in 1975!

The have almost nothing in stock-this looks bad to me I am NOT trying to start a rumour here but perhaps Historex are in trouble(?). You may want to email and ask them at Historex Agents.

Historex in stock items can be found at-

Good luck with the search.

good luck with them

They were my initial choice but I could never get a response to numerous emails and faxes. I even had a friend in the UK contact (try to) them with no luck.

Sorry to hear that..

Historex Agents have given me fantastic service over the years with great communication.

My first contact with them (around 1975)was an enquiry about a out of print book they sent me the book with a letter telling me that it was the last copy in stock and that they where glad to get rid of it as they where tiered of taking inventory of it! The letter signed by Lynne Sangster concluded that if I “wanted it” would I be good enough to send them 1 pound (I was living in the UK at that time) to cover packing and postage! I sent the cash the same day and became a firm customer for years.

I have a small “stock” of Historex items in storage if you let me know what you want I may have it for sale I promise the price will be reasonable and (postage will be at cost)as I probably will never build them.

Email me off group tdsime@hotmail.com

Regards,
Tom
