Probably not news to those in the know, but still:

Mostly 1/72, but they have a small-but-growing range of 15mm plastics - look pretty good and very affordable. 18.50GBP for rather more than 100 German or Russian soldiers (with display models helpfully based up on FoW bases), 16.50GBP for a box of 5 tanks. Not half bad, if they have what you're looking for.

Hmm! Here's a review:

I'm sold. Looks like I may be working towards a medium tank company before armored rifles, on account of these guys are both nice-looking and super cheap. 14.85GPB from Maelstrom is awful hard to beat.

Yeah, it looks pretty solid. I like the detail of the product and the scale is a good match. I've got a few Old Glory models mixed into my collection. A lot of other FOW gamers I've met have added other brands into their collection, so certainly using other 15mm scale models is not breaking any decorum or unwritten rules. It looks nice and light, too.
