those circus goblins are amazing.. a great shame they appear to have been done for Gaspez though, as it will undoubtedly reduce their popularity...

the Flings and trees are great.. I'll give him time to do a few more than I think Willy will be getting a decent sized order from yours truly.. :roll:

I think Willy Miniatures will be producing the skeleton chainsaw but I would imagine it could be a couple of months before it is cast and on sale

gorgeous sculpts, but lacking in a little originality, especially the bombers tri-horn hat and the jester top to the pogo stick... :-?

Isn't that kind of the point though, make them recognizable as the Stars rather than just being a generic bomber and pogoer? I think they look pretty cool.

I don't really get why the bombadier is in a slam dunk pose, seems to be one of the last things you would want to do with a bomb. But then I still think he looks cool. The pogoer also kicks major ass.
I would like to see the loony in the same pose as the bombadier, frenzy chainsaw!

now that would rawk... :o :D 8) :smoking:

Corvidus, I get where the "appealing to the tried and tested" works, because, it's been, well, tried and tested.. :roll: but in all sincerity I can hardly applaud a Bomber Dribblesnot re-make when I struggle to understand why the first (official) version had a Napoleon complex either.. :-?

I mean, given how often the goblin bomber hurts himself or his team mates as he does the opposition, you may as well sculpt one up as a suicide (sewerside?) bomber rather than an 18th century military genius... :orc:

there's nothing wrong with these sculpts at all, other than the after-taste of Citadel and the slight whiff of Cyanide.. :wink:

I always thought they were pirates, not Napoleons, due to the skull decorations.

The reverse of HMP, do you mean? One which allows throwing at the nearest squares only, but making extra damage by impact (and then the explosion... hitting the gobling too on 4+).

Now, if instead of slam dunk pose, 3 points throw pose, with cart full of bombs...

I e-mailed Pedro Ramos about the two halfling sculpts.

He mailed back “…Willy loves them for another alternative team, but in the future and he is not totally sure...If you dare to cast and sell the figures, the price of each model is €200 or you can wait for a company to buy them or want the full team.”

2OO euros is a bit out of my price range, but maybe we could persuade kind Willy to get them made…?
