Salute 2025 Live Blog!
Welcome to the Salute 2025 Live Blog where we're going to be delving into all of the awesomeness from companies and clubs here down in London at the ExCel Centre.
Tickets For Salute - Traders @ Salute - Games @ Salute - Painting Competition @ Salute
Make sure to get involved as we want to know who you'd love us to talk to here today and what miniature ranges you want us to explore too.
Join us for a weekend of checking out awesome miniatures and participation games from this year's show!
Salute always works out pretty expensive for me to attend so I’m looking forward to seeing your coverage gents. Any previews of Empress miniatures Arnhem German Kickstarter which is due out at the end of April would be great, or any new stuff from Offensive miniatures please.
Also, don’t forget to wind up @commodorerob if your bump into him 😈😳😂😂😂
He said it was the bad dice
🤣
Mission accomplished, see you at UKGE🙃
It’s a ~nine hour flight direct from Calgary to London, overnight.
One day I’ll make it.
I posted this on the youtube as well
I sadly wont be able to go to Salute this year due to a recent accident leaving me less than mobile. I was hoping to support a game Heroes Super Combat – STAND: GL02 written by one of our local hobby club members. It is their first game and first time at Salute it would be amazing if you could find the time to pop by and take a look at the boards they have done for me !!. I will be following along from my bed watching the blog tomorrow. !!
Also check out the Kitbash Corner on stand GJ15 feature people from the local club who do some crazy kitbashing with stones and tree bits. No seriously it is pretty insane how good they are.
They are already on ze list
If they are there: please go up to CGL and give them a stern talking to. 8)
CGL were going to attend, but there was a problem with shipping and may be delayed…
they might have forgotten to book hotels for all of their crew and have to ship one in extra to balance things out …
I’m missing this year helping out with ROK Minis. I hope everyone attending and showing has a good day!
I’m always interested in what Crooked Dice are doing. Plus any great looking game tables…
Annoyingly couldn’t go last minute so appreciate being able to go virtually with you fine lot.
Hope you guys have a great show… at least you won’t ambush me for an interview this year 🤣
Apparently Perry miniatures are releasing a single plastic sprue that isn’t Napoleonin Spanish if you fancy swinging by any having an ask
Could we see the “Guards of Traitors Toll” table please 🙂
AFternoon from here on the south coast UK – o7 – looking forward to your coverage of this awesome event 🙂
looking forward so seeing what you see
Absoluteltly love salute as a show been many times but a decline in health has meant things like this took a back shelf. so you can imagine my delight having the walk thru guys whilst still being sat at home in my PJ’s maxed out on meds feeling pretty shitty. many thanks guys a delightfull couple of hours remotely exploring and recharging me hobby mojo.
Even Trouble my jack russell has been watching you avidly Ben its that furry face, hes a fan of both you and jerry normally on the weekender and XLBS its gotta be the beards lol
ive seen some comments regeard the cost of salute, i normally booked a year in advance get the hotel very cheap, get a few passengers from the local club to help with transport costs, a great way to meet new people and new peotential friends and whilst i absorbed the hobby expenditure the only thing i found excessive was the parking fees minimaaised with a club in from all passengers. The show lads always have looked after me as a disabled attendee and its always been a rewarding trip regardless of sleeping for a week when i got home..
Thanks for the great coverage. I’d love to go to Salute some day but this is the next best thing.
