If you continue to browse and use this website you are agreeing to comply with and be bound by the following terms and conditions of use, which together with our privacy policy govern Hasslefree Miniatures relationship with you in relation to this website.

The term “Hasslefree Miniatures” or “us” or “we” refers to the owner of the website. The term “you” refers to the user or viewer of our website.

The use of this website is subject to the following terms of use:

  • The content of the pages of this website is for your general information and use only. It is subject to change without notice.
  • Neither we nor any third parties provide any warranty or guarantee as to the accuracy, timeliness, performance, completeness or suitability of the information and materials found or offered on this website for any particular purpose. You acknowledge that such information and materials may contain inaccuracies or errors and we expressly exclude liability for any such inaccuracies or errors to the fullest extent permitted by law.
  • Your use of any information or materials on this website is entirely at your own risk, for which we shall not be liable. It shall be your own responsibility to ensure that any products, services or information available through this website meet your specific requirements.
  • This website contains material which is owned by or licensed to us. This material includes, but is not limited to, the design, layout, look, appearance and graphics. Reproduction is prohibited other than in accordance with the copyright notice, which forms part of these terms and conditions.
  • All trademarks reproduced in this website, which are not the property of, or licensed to the operator, are acknowledged on the website.
  • Unauthorised use of this website may give to a claim for damages and/or be a criminal offence.
  • From time to time this website may also include links to other websites. These links are provided for your convenience to provide further information. They do not signify that we endorse the website(s). We have no responsibility for the content of the linked website(s).

IP stands for “intellectual property”. It’s intellectual (as opposed to tangible/physical) because it deals with concepts and creations of the mind that can’t actually be touched. Because it can be bought,sold and transferred from one person to another it can be deemed ‘property’. It means that when Kev sculpts a model we can sell the physical object (the miniature itself) to one person AND still retain the right to reproduce it (the copyright).

If we want to protect our IP we have to tell you that everything on this site belongs to us. If you are made aware of this then the stealing of our IP is called ‘THEFT’. In case you think that stealing another persons ideas is ‘harmless’, IT ISN‘T. It is actually very naughty and although wouldn’t make much of a dent in the profits of the big guys, in a small company like ours it could permanently damage if not destroy us. We work very hard to keep this company going (you can yawn at this point if you wish!) and are very protective of our ideas and Kev’s sculpts. Please respect this.

If you want to use our images on your site all you have to do is ask. Provided that they are not going to be used for anything that would be derogatory or damaging to our business then there isn’t usually a problem. When the image is used we expect you to credit us as the manufacturer and (in the case of a painted figure) the painter. We reserve the right to ask you to remove any of our images if we deem them derogatory or damaging to our business or if you couldn’t be bothered to ask for permission.

We work very hard to get all of the images in this site online and updated frequently and all images, pages and text in this site are Copyright Black & White Games Ltd 2015

Okay… here we go.

Please remember that our figures are hobby items and (although referred to as toys) ARE NOT TOYS and as such they aren’t suitable for children. By all means get your son/daughter hooked early but please supervise them to make sure that none of the hazards listed below can occur.

Our ‘toys’ are generally made from a white metal alloy which may or may not contain lead. Therefore it is not advisable to chew / swallow / ingest our figures. Some of the terrain pieces are made from resin, please don’t eat this either.

Although we pride ourselves on the quality of our castings, as is the nature of the hobby some may need a bit of assembling or trimming. If you cut yourself with a sharp blade whilst undertaking any form of adaption or assembling of our figures then it isn’t our fault (butterfingers!!). Likewise if you manage to superglue yourself to the figure / table / activator can then that isn’t our fault either. If you let us know then I am sure we will be sympathetic (depending on whether we have had a good day or not!!)

Our website shows images of naked female and male sculptures, both bare metal and painted. If you are at all offended by nudity then please be careful when browsing.

We adhere to all current policies in force. Full details of these regulations can be found here.

1. Introduction

Please read these terms of sale carefully. You will be asked to expressly agree to these terms of sale before you place an order for products from our website.

2. Interpretation

In these terms of sale, “we” means Hasslefree Miniatures (and “us” and “our” will be construed accordingly); and “you” means our customer or potential customer for products (and “your” will be construed accordingly).

3. Order process

The advertising of products on our website constitutes an “invitation to treat”; and your order for products constitutes a contractual offer. No contract will come into force between you and us unless and until we accept your order in accordance with the procedure detailed below.

In order to enter into a contract to purchase products from us, you will need to take the following steps: “(i) you must add any of the products you wish to purchase to your shopping cart, and then proceed to the checkout; (ii) if you are a new customer, you must then create an account with us and log in; if you are an existing customer, you must enter your login details; (iii) once you are logged in, you must select your preferred method of delivery and confirm your order and your consent to these terms of sale; (iv) you will be transferred to the Payment website/page where Sagepay and Paypal will handle your payment; (v) we will then send you an initial acknowledgment; and (vi) once we have checked whether we are able to meet your order, we will either send you an order confirmation (at which point your order will become a binding contract) or we will confirm by email that we are unable to meet your order.”

We will not file a copy of these terms of sale specifically in relation to your order. We may update the version of these terms of sale on the website from time to time, and we do not guarantee that the version you have agreed to will remain accessible. We therefore recommend that you download, print and retain a copy of these terms of sale for your records.

The only language in which we provide these terms of sale is English.

Before you place your order, you will have the opportunity of identifying whether you have made any input errors by reviewing the order summary. You may correct those input errors before placing your order by clicking on “edit invoice address” for your personal details, or editing the basket contents.

In addition to the price of the products, you may have to pay a delivery charge, which will be as stated when you pay for the product.

Payment must be made upon the submission of your order. We may withhold the products and/or cancel the contract between us if the price is not received from you in full in cleared funds.

The prices on the website exclude all value added taxes (where applicable).

Payment for all products must be made by any method detailed on the website from time to time.

  1. you are legally capable of entering into binding contracts, and you have full authority, power and capacity to agree to these terms of sale

Suppliers occasionally withdraw products from sale and we therefore are unable to fulfil specific orders, in this case we will offer a refund or other alternative.

If a delivery attempt is made by our delivery agents and a cost is incurred to us by a customers failure to arrange redelivery or collection of a package, then you accept that we may pass the delivery charge. Also if asked to cancel/refund the order the costs incurred for the original delivery and return will not be refunded (following a failed delivery).

If an order has been shipped and not received, you must inform us within a reasonable period. This period is deemed to be 30 days for Airmail and UK Postal services, 60 days for Surface Mail. Past these timescales we will resend packages at our discretion.

  1. delivery of the products
  2. receipt by us of full payment of all sums due in respect of the products (including delivery charges).

We will be entitled to recover payment for the products even where ownership has not passed to you.

  3. the supply of newspapers, periodicals or magazines
