also, I think it is all (albeit well done) recasts.... the resin is different than FW, and the jokaero and corteaz are the same dark grey colour, not lighter like finecast or metal....

Yeah from looking at the stuff it does look like recasts. Also
All parts are NOT painted. All parts are disassembling. Base not include.
it says this about every model. The site says they are based in Russia and shipping to the US take about 30 days, even longer to Canada and Australia. It seems awful shady to me.

That's just wrong. Forgeworld earned a high position by selling high quality in casting and modelling. It's insanely lame to just rip it off and sell it for a few bucks cheaper. FW has excellent customer service, they don't deserve to be ripped off. I'd say tell GW/forgeworld about this.
Remember that ForgeWorld is still a company, just heavily related to GW. They're still their own company with GW rights. GW =/= FW.

no tom what you did is right mate, what that guy was doing is illegal and you helped make the world a bit better, feel proud, not stupid for not scamming GW while you could. that is very tempting but i really thing you can afford it, being in the uk where gw is cheapest ....

This is odd. So the guy is making molds and pressing his own models....? Very odd.
And good for you Tom, if you used/abused the situation it would have been bad karma for you anyway, probably would have gotten ripped off or scamed somehow.
