Time to give everyone a look at our upcoming release for August 1st, the Crypt of Cthulhu, sculpted for us by none other than Bob Murch.
This is a two-piece resin kit, with removable roof and fully detailed interior. Note that the circular depressions you see on top of the interior walls are from the addition of magnets, and don't appear on the actual model. The base is a CD, so it's quite a good sized kit, and makes a perfect scene of horror.
After the crypt, you'll be seeing:
September - Swarms I (Snakes)
Roctober! III - Madmen (Henchman, Maniac, Mad Scientist), plus our traditional annual special offer
November - Swarms II (Rats)

The Crypt is awesome, Great work!! I love the painting too!!
-
Well, that one's definitely on the 'to get' list!
-
Quite a nice piece.
Any word on the price?
-
Very nice piece, one to of those "must-have"s :)
-
Ah yes, price. Suppose I could have mentioned that! So far as I'm aware, Mike has set this one at $25.
Oh, and I should also mention it comes with a bonus chained coffin (not pictured - the same one from our earlier sarcophagus set). Wasn't originally part of the plan, but it fits so nicely on that platform we had to put it in!
-
Excellent and to have Sir Bob sculpting for you as well!
-
Is the name on the tomb and homage to Vincent? Or to some HPL character?
-
The name refers to 'Robert M. Price'...he was the editor of 'The Crypt Of Cthulhu'...one of the first (if not the first) Lovecraft fanzines. This is one of my favorite pieces in the range and although it can be used as a Scene Of Horror, expect some special rules to roll out of the shop at some point.

The Crypt is now available through Uncle Mike's online store. The final price came in at $30.
