Thanks so much!

Toy? Converted fig? Figment of my imagination, which you are magically able to name?

Thanks!

Ah, I wasn't sure of the connection, hence the 'horse in the lasagne' line! (which admittedly sounds random if people weren't aware of the recent horsemeat found in supermarket lasagnes story in the UK!). I

Learned LONG ago to keep the speaker turned off.  ;)

I already found the site, but haven't found the figure, unless you're saying it's a stuffed toy. I'll admit I've not looked at every page in the store, though.

Ah, sorry Mr Beast. That was just intended as an introduction to the gruffalo character. I believe Shaun said it was from Waitrose supermarket. They seem to do a lot of gruffalo stuff, they must have a deal or something.

Well gents the Gruffalo is a plastic toy - it is sold with a pencil inserted in its backside!

Gamers, what are we like eh?  :o

The most magnificent terrain for a splendid day's gaming and what do we obsess over - a pen top Gruffalo...

That's decided it, my next skirmish game will be based on Where the Wild Things Are vs. The Very Hungry Caterpillar.

The scenery here and  the New Victoria game, you VSFers certainly have the best terrain/scenery. I saw some other pictures of this game over on SDForum and was very impressed with the rail wagons.

Hi Moonshado
The loco & wagons are also toys - Wilkinsons this time

No foul; I've learned of British supermarket, and their running afoul of tainted goods. Now I just have to have a look for 'Wilkinsons'.  ;)

As for the terrain, is MARVELOUS, and I'm delinquent in saying so, but there's been SO much good on this list lately, we get blasé '.

Edit: Oh, WILKO!

Anyone know where the driver for the carriage is from?

Title: Re: IHMN
Post by: Dewbakuk on 24 April 2013, 09:38:40 PM
He's a Sloppy Jalopy driver with his feet trimmed I believe.

Edit: Yep, this guy, although he may actually have had feet added looking at this pic from their site :)

I bought this game for just such a thing.  The figures are hard plastic and just right scale wise.  Immanently repaintable.

Hi Gents
The Gruffalo is from Waitrose supermarkets (They do not have any other figures...)
The driver of the trike is fron Sloppy Js - he had no feet. The 'crew' of Chitty are also from Sloppy Js

Good spot, Orctrader.
I completely missed that in the pics.
I have one of those carriages in the cupboard somewhere in need of a suitable driver.

Nice one, Dewbakuk for the info.
