Title: Crooked Dice: Scary Statues - PRE-ORDER AVAILABLE
Post by: uti long smile on July 31, 2010, 09:40:33 AM: We're delighted to present C1, C2 and C3 - Scary Statues sculpted by Mark Evans. Amongst catacombs and graveyards lie these carvings. Silent and patient, they watch and wait, ready to animate and pounce on unsuspecting adventurers or lonely travellers.

We love these and hope you will too. They come in two parts - body and (a generic set of) wings and are going off for mastering next week. They will be available for pre-orders in a couple of weeks, with these being available individually and as a three pack. Prices to follow once we have agreed mould arrangements. Release is planned for mid September, but we will confirm as production progresses.

Alien Minion
This release will also include the poor old Minion, currently undergoing final adjustments by the ever-patient Greg Storey. We will hopefully have pics for you very soon.

Stay tuned on the Crooked Dice Forum:

Let us know when the pre-orders go up so you can have some more money... (still looking forward to pics of the minion though...)

Post by: Centaur_Seducer on July 31, 2010, 11:46:47 AM: Uti, will it be possible to order them one by one? I don't know what to do with the pointing one, but the sobbing/peekaboo and scary one are perfect for a scenario :)

... don't ink!

I'll get me coat.
