Our May release are three scientists for use in your laboratories and hidden research facilities.
(http://www.crooked-dice.co.uk/images/s2r5cdscientists.jpg)
A female doctor, elderly prof and rugged male with gizmo have been sculpted by Mark Evans. All are supplied with the head on the tab to allow you to mix and match with the other Crooked Dice compatible heads.
These 28mm eggheads will be available individually and as a Boffin Bonanza Deal for all three. The heads will also be available on a separate sprue as they hopefully have 1999 different uses!
Pricing and release dates to follow, but these are currently with Griffin, so we are expecting masters in the next week.
-
Dig those sideys on Dr Zoogang! Finding uses for the other two may be an Impossible Mission.
-
Awesome! :-*
-
I'm starting to think you should set up a subscription service, what with every release being desireable... Keep up the good work and keep taking my money!
-
Want. :o :-* :o ;D :o lol
-
Very nice work by Mark.
-
Lovely stuff! As usual with your figures in this range, they have so many potential uses.
Surprised there isn't one in glasses! Surely one of the great cliches in this genre lol
The separate heads pack is a great idea too, it makes conversons so much easier. I wish more companies had the initiative to do this.
-
Very nice indeed, lots of character ;D

It was sort of born out of necessity as we couldn't really afford to do three separate sculpts\cast, but we've found it does give a nice flexibility to the range.
It presents a couple of minor problems and not everyone likes it, but it kind of works for us. We've a few more heads sprues planned over the next few months too, so they'll be even more to choose from.
And thanks to everyone else for all the kind comments. Mark is putting out some great work at the mo. He's doing lovely stuff for Fenris too.

As soon as I saw the female scientist I thought of Helena Russell. Great stuff!

Tony, apologies if it's left a bad taste. We've been badly let down. Twice. We're as frustrated as you - and it's not the way we want to do things. Hopefully, we can keep you entertained with minis and rules to make up for it.
-
Brilliant PJs on some brilliant minis. Will have to wait a while for an order (couple of shows coming up) but it will be forthcoming!!
-
Like i said not your fault and your prob more mad than anyone, please don't take it as anything bad the products are wonderful the setting great , Your ideas like i say are worth the wait....

Then you should know better when someone's trying to stay under the IP radar then, you should get 'irony' too in that case! ::)

Well, if posting an image of the 'Moonbase Beta' team is a problem, I'll gladly edit my post.
-
No but taking offence at a little tongue in cheekiness is Adrian, wasn't having a dig and have replied to your pm so all should be good...
Anyway back to the inspired inspiration miniatures eh? Unless they've be set adrift like that pesky old moon of ours! ;)

I'd not thought of that! Brilliant idea lol

Tempted to use these to make 3/4 of the team from KENT. Harry, of course, no longer has the luxury of having a miniature.
-
Excellent minis with lots of character and many potential uses :-*

Great news Tony. Glad you like them :)

Great minis, any chance of finding out when the 11th hats and beardy heads come out? Want to order scientists, heads and, for some reason, astronauts all at the same time, so will do so when the western, egyptian and unshaved 11th generation heads are out

I'm still waiting for Guru and Tweedy head masters from Griffin (will chase again tomorrow), but they are planned for a June release - likely mid-month, but will update as soon as I have more info.
