Great chat - The Perry’s are such legends, a mountain of information and incredible contribution to miniature wargames. Saved this one to listen to properly and wasn’t disappointed. Thanks Jordan.
The authors of "Talking miniatures" interviewed the Perrys for their book. But they only caught them on audio and had a really hard time making out who was who of the twins on the tape 😅
Blanche: You lads can't play fight in here! This is the Warhammer room! Interesting how a few of those old shops they mention were in Finchley. The ones they mention seem to be closed down now but I just realized that 'Leisure Games' on Ballards lane is almost 40 years old and still going. I came across one of their ads in White Dwarf 88 the other day and emailed them and they said they are celebrating their 40th next year! :D I used to live on a road off that street and went to that shop a few times but never knew its long history.
Of my 3 favourite minis ever produced by citadel, the Perrys are responsible for 2, the stone trolls and 3rd edition Bretonnian foot knights. Really captivating sculpts that have yet to be bested
Hi Jordan. I like your videos and have shown them to lots of my friends. I have a question for you, do you consider yourself an entertainer, a historian or a journalist?
Another fine interview! These guys are legands. I tell everyone at the store where I play bolt action about your channel Jordan, I really hope you manage to keep producing because you are great at this!
Great interview Jordan. Must have been amazing to have a chat with these two legends. I own a lot of minis that these guys make and I still continue to purchase from their historical range.
The men, the myths, the legends. I've heard so much about the Perry twins, and it was awesome to finally hear from them and to hear their stories. Thank you, Jordan!
These two are responsible for pretty much all of the best Dwarfs ever made. I still have most of mine from way back when and they're wonderful, an absolute joy.
Painting Praetorian missile launcher squads right now as I listen to this. Amazing they had no idea that the heads would become popular enough to generate their own regiment….
Perrys: "This is kinda embarassing, We MacGyvered this together as a child 50 years ago with little in the way of tutorials, no formal training and rudimentary materials even by the standards of the time." *proceeds to show a diorama that 99% of hobbyists with access to modern equipment couldn't produce in their wildest dreams.*
It's such a shame to introduce them by only mentioning their games workshop exploits. That's such a Warhammer fanboy thing to do, especially considering all their best work and their Magnum opus is in their own historical company.
Huge fan of the Perry’s and everything they do! Thanks for having them on👏🏻👏🏻
They were awesome guests!

Another fantastic interview and video thank you so much Jordan
Another great chat!
I love that they talk as a hive mind. This is a genuinely wholesome interview!

Great stuff! :D
Another delightful interview Jordan
Always love an interview with the Perry’s, so fun and I love the way they finish each others sentences. Amazing sculptors, and so engaging.
I wish all the old school games and miniatures designers were all still at GW steering the ship.
God i hope they one day put out a guide or book on sculpting
Nerds 🤓!!!! Love the interview.

Another fantastic video. Brilliant stuff Jordan.
True living legends! Thanks for the interview Jordan!
Another great interview! These guys are legend. ❤
I just required the box set of Dwarf Lords of Legend...amazing. I own so many of their minis. These men are legends, themselves!
100%
Great to hear the Perry Twins. Thanks for another great interview. 🤩
🐀🌠Squeak-squeak! 🐀🌠
Is there a catalog somewhere where you can see every Perry sculpt?
Another fine interview! These guys are legands. I tell everyone at the store where I play bolt action about your channel Jordan, I really hope you manage to keep producing because you are great at this!
Thanks mate
Well, this was great. I think I could listen to these gentlemen chat and reminisce for hours...
Great interview Jordan. Must have been amazing to have a chat with these two legends. I own a lot of minis that these guys make and I still continue to purchase from their historical range.
It really was a pleasure, they were both so fantastic to chat with!
Another great interview. Interesting to see how the techniques have evolved.
Just when you think Jordan can’t outdo himself any more… wallop!
My personal Miniature Heros. Hail to the Legend(s)!
The men, the myths, the legends. I've heard so much about the Perry twins, and it was awesome to finally hear from them and to hear their stories. Thank you, Jordan!
Haven't watched yet but I've already got to post that it's good to see these legends.-
I have 3 Dragon ogres of Perry's that are my favourite figures. I wonder what they think of them themselves :)
Oh did they make those!? I agree they are fantastic I always wanted one of them.
Fun fact: Lego were the worlds largest producer of tyres at one point.
These two are responsible for pretty much all of the best Dwarfs ever made. I still have most of mine from way back when and they're wonderful, an absolute joy.
Apropos of nothing, their 28mm plastic historical minis are top notch.

Your channel is phenomenal! can you interview Paul bonner one day if possible? thank you in advanced.
Two Lengendary gentlemen! Though as a non native english speaker i have difficulties understanding them 😂

oh look another interview going over the same stuff the last ten interviews did.
Thanks for watching!

I’m aware of their other work, but I’m not conversant in it, and the focus of my channel is predominantly Games Workshop history.
Neat stuff. :)
