I just don't believe that RAFM is still able to bring out such nice stuff. Thought, they're finished. Happy to see I was wrong :-)

I wonder if they are working through a back catalogue of greens they have in a secret workshop, what a thought hundreds, no thousands of great minis covered in dust, everything you could possibly want just sitting waiting to be cast :D

With this, I will be able to rule the world [insert your own version of a suitable insane cackle]!

Thanks for the info, Hammershield!


Cheers,
Ian

Interesting as Pulp Figures do something very very similar:

Probably. The RAFM Death Ray was probably sculpted by Murch back in the day, and he just decided to re-do it for his own (see also: Copplestone, Mark "Future Wars").

Now if RAFM would just stop hiding all the Mekton Z blisters, I'd be a somewhat happier man.

Murch did RAFM? I did not know that.

What I think is funny is first Mark shows his Death Ray, then RAFM shows theirs 2 days later.

He did all of their Call of Cthulhu line, including the Elder Gods and Investigators. They used to be up on Pulp Figures for historical interest.

I think that they did it specifically to avoid losing sales. The fig isn't on their online store yet and so it looks specifically like it is a response to Bob's new mini.

I would also agree that Bob probably did the RAFM mini as well.

Well they are both quite lovely. The first one does look a little more realistic.

I like them both, and I'll probably end up owning them both.

Kinda cheesy of them to wait till BM's one is up, but oh well. I'm surprised that they have minis sitting around that they aren't selling!
