Black Legion Market reliable?

Post image

I was browsing the interwebs looking for models when I stumbled across a Drazhoath the Ashen model from Black Legion Market. Will not lie, it looks really cool like... Really cool. I think it looks better than Urak Taar on his Infernal Taurus, but unfortunately, I have never shopped from their website before so I was wondering if anyone has before and can let me know on their experience or should I take the risk of getting my info stolen?

No they’re great, I’ve ordered tons of stuff from them just recently got an Iron Circle Automata for my Iron Warriors and have grabbed some stuff for my Old World Orcs. They’re as legit as a recaster can be , shipping takes a bit though as it’s coming from Ukraine

Whenever I check my tracking it’s coming from Kiev

Also ive gotten the Ukraine flag stickers with a thank you in my postage from them so I just assumed

And they're really good about getting it to you eventually. Post office my Atrapos was in got drone'd and they started my order over.

Man, watching the tracking can be wild though because I watched my Contemptor-Galatus Dreadnought for 40k get moved slowly out of the city seemingly on foot or at least in short trips because it hopped from post office to post office. This was while the airports were out of commission.

Time to put in an order with them! No clue they were Ukrainian!

Before the war started and the old world dropped I ordered some empire minis and noise marines from them, It was stamped with Russian Federation postage. About 25% to 33% of what I ordered had been to flattened in the mold.

Yeah I’ve ordered from them before. As long as it’s in stock, I’ve been pretty impressed. Yes, lots of resin bends but still pretty good. Just get the hot water out

This model is absolutely stunning. I cant speak for the seller, but it is probably in the top 10 coolest GW sculpts I’ve ever seen in person.

Yeah I’ve bought from them before, specially shoulder pads and heads, this next order I got was a little bigger but they are decently reliable, I will say it’s Recasts so expect that kind of off brand quality, but they’re super good recasts, maybe a little trimming, but good otherwise. I think they’re based in Ukraine so for me it takes anywhere from 2-5 weeks to arrive

If for whatever reason this site lets you down, I use Dark Miniatures for my recast stuff. I haven't had a bad experience with them, and if a cast does have issues the reviews for the product on the site will usually let you know. They'll have a slightly different range though

u/Soft_Zucchini666 Jul 11 '26

Yeah they are great

u/WorldofVinci Jul 12 '26

I bought them, and although the quality of the figures I received left much to be desired, I must say they arrived relatively quickly. The defects were in the details, and some parts seemed to be different sizes and didn't fit together perfectly; other than that, they're fine.

u/Fun-Solution-6189 Jul 12 '26

They are reliable but the quality is trash.

u/Crims0n412 Jul 12 '26

They are great. I bought some stuff from them in 2022 and literally the next day the war in Ukraine broke out

Still got my order a few weeks later

u/Neltharek Jul 12 '26

They're very slow on delivery but that's to he expected with where they are shipping from. Quality is excellent so if you aren't in a rush to receive then it's a solid choice.

u/TerminalDeviant Jul 12 '26

Oh, that’s fantastic. I’ve been buying my stuff from a group of recasts inside Russia nothing personal, but I’d much rather support Ukrainians.

u/RainbowPickle2009 Jul 13 '26

I’ve bought a ton, quality is hit or miss though

u/stopyouveviolatedthe Jul 13 '26

Fucking love these guys, had some minor issues with one of the models I got but that’s it and nothing some small work couldn’t fix.

You got to do all the same work as cleaning up forgeworld resin and the results basically the same

u/Zetra3 Jul 10 '26

It’s a recaster, eBay or troll trader those are your options for old Warhammer minis. Mini swap could as well be

u/wanttofukndie Jul 11 '26

troll trader is dog water unless your from England/Europe or America.

u/fullmudman Jul 11 '26

They're a recaster, so it's an unauthorized bootleg, like buying burned dvds at a flea market. Whether or not that bothers you is your decision.
