There are, but I think Impact should have first option on selling theirs first.

We won't have them in the store until mid April Simon ... so go ahead and sell any you have left.

We'll be selling him for 5.75 GBP.

No pic of the finished fig yet (I might see if my mate can get one painted up quickly), but, for those that won't have seen it:

I was and am absolutely blown away with the fig. Don't get me wrong, the Pumpkinhead from last year is awesome, and much better than what I was expecting (nice to see Matt's team had 4), but this is something else.

As a note, the 2 heads are sepearate and interchangeable, and tjhe right arm is also seperate. I already have a few conversion ideas (cheers to Duttydave for one of them :wink: ).

Just a quick note to say cheers to Simon and the gang for a great tourney, congrats to all the winners and many thanks to all the people I played. Had 5 enjoyable games, managed to break one curse (finally didn't lose a game to Simon,didn't win either but who cares :D ) yet my duck against Blackshirts continues (I hate Chaos Dwarfs :o ). I also hate Nobbla :D :D .

Lastly, cheers to the 3 guys on the bottom table with me for game 6, dont think i've ever laughed as much as the 3rd game we played with roving teleporter's and a living ball (which was in fact a snowman! :o ).

See most of you at Pearly's!
