Title: ‘In the lands of the North, where the black rocks stand guard (complete)
Post by: matakishi on 10 October 2021, 06:51:36 PM
‘In the lands of the North, where the black rocks stand guard against the cold sea, in the dark night that is very long the men of the Northlands sit by their great log fires and they tell a tale…’

Nogbad the Bad - a more iconic villain than Sauron, Darth Vader, and Hannibal Lecter put together?  I should certainly say so.

I had these for Christama about 3 years ago. It's lovely to see them painted!

Loving it. Suddenly got an urge to watch Ivor the engine.


You need  to get a dragon.

Great to see these painted up - very evocative of the original!

I was very tempted by these when they came out, but resisted as I was fairly sure they wouldn’t get painted, even though the nostalgia pangs were strong.

It's nice to see Noggin is remembered fondly by so many of you.
Here's the second batch.

It's strictly faux nostalgia for me (I never even heard of it till I was in my late thirties, around the end of last century) but having seen it I can guarantee young me would have loved it too.
