Front Rank Figurines Ltd are delighted to announce that Gripping Beast Ltd have acquired all the Front Rank ranges and website.
Good News! At last! Gripping Beast has finally completed the purchase of Front Rank!
We would like to thank Alec & Angela for their stupendous patience and we wish them a long and happy retirement.
Front Rank has now moved to Beast Towers, lock, stock and barrel. It will, however, take us a few days to get sorted and for production to begin again. In the meanwhile, you can now place your orders on the website in the normal way.
Once we have things organised, we will begin to work through the orders (this will take some days!) We will process the orders strictly in the order in which they were received.
Thank you all for your patience and some level of sanity will be restored as soon as possible
