Maxmini: Schließung angekündigt
Auch Maxmini schließen die Pforten.
Nothing lasts forever
…ok, I know this is triviality. We’ve been discussing it for the past year and we’ve come to conclusion it is time to close shop with the end of 2019. Till then we’ll operate normally – so we’ll still release a couple of new stuff, the orders will be sent, models printed and so on.
But why you might ask. Shortly after KS some pretty nasty stuff happened to both me and Kacper privately, in a very short time span. Sadly it affected the workshop. While we eventually recovered and got the workshop up and running again the chemistry was gone. We no longer worked as a team and we’ve no longer complemented one another.
Don’t get me wrong – the store and sculpting commissions still bring money. But I don’t feel we’re moving in the right direction and things have been stagnating for the past 2 years. I feel that under new roof, with more energetic team the range could blossom.
Which brings me to good news. My hope is that it won’t be the end of the range. At this point we’re in talks with some local vendors that are interested in picking up the range. And there’s also task for you – if you know someone that might be interested / someone you’d like to take over – let us / them know. The more, the better chance it will find a better home.
At this point I’d like to thank several parties. First of all – you, our customers. Not only for financial support. We’ve got so many amazing emails, fantastic chit-chats during events – it kept us going. Secondly our friends that helped us during tough times – Kuba, Maciek, Artur among others. You guys seriously rock!
Then big shout out goes to our team – we’ve got some fantastic folks over the years. It was awesome to watch your skills blossom and so many times things you provided were way outside regular job tasks.
Then to all the companies we’ve worked with – with notable mention to Rebel, Postindustrial Games, Siren Miniatures, Fragged Empire, Sword Board Games, Wargamer and man others. It was fantastic to work on your models.
Even taking all the rough times into account running MaxMini.eu was fantastic experience. We’ve loved it and learned so much. I hope we’ll be able to meet during some future projects. While personally I plan to take a break from wargaming related things I enjoy this hobby too much to leave it completely. Keep on happy hobbying!

Das tut schon weh. Mal sehen, was ich noch retten kann.
Wenn man sich anschaut, was die beiden nach dem KS an überschaubaren vereinzelten Releases rausgebracht haben, war schon absehbar, das da was nicht stimmt. Allein was sie an fertigen Rendern und Formen von ihrem KS niemals in den normalen Verkauf gebracht haben, war schon immer sehr verwunderlich. Echt schade…ich hoffe Kromlech schaut sich an, was sie vlt übernehmen können
Oh, das ist nicht schön. Aber manchmal muss man tun, was man tun muss. Jetzt muss ich dafür gucken was ich noch an Orks von den Jungs haben will…denn ein paar sind schon in der Sammlung, und die Qualität stimmt definitiv!
Weiß jemand was da vorgefallen ist? Scheint ja, als haben sich die beiden Köpfe nach dem KS zerstritten.
Das ist schade, aber ich hatte mich auch schon gewundert das kromlech und puppetwars jeden Monat neues releasen und maxmini nie hinterher zog.
