Last chance to pick up any of the goblinaid sculpts. I've got a bunch and they are really good.
Here they are.

Seems that the money to Kev has been put to good use

None of them fit with projects I was working on (sadly!), but looking again, that goblincopter might make for a hilarious pulp character. He's actually got a pretty good face in that I can convert him to a human just by trimming the ears a bit (sacreliege, I know).
-
Yes, some nice minis in there. I have used a couple in my project.
Good to hear the goblinmaster is back at it.
-
Done and done. Got a Kev White one too. I'll probably never use him (well, maybe with a conversion...), but I just couldn't resist.

Thanks for reminder, almost forgot to order them. Now ordered the complete set, that will be a great goblin party on my desk :)
-
Fram, The Goblinocopter is 21mm tall at the eyes.
Did you buy it ?
(I just wanted to brag about it, since I made it !! )
;D
-
Glad to hear Kev is getting there. Did they ever get the ones that set about Him?

Should have got the goblin wizard. ;) I hear the sculptor is a really awesome guy. :? lol its me

Well done. That's a fair bit of cash but a worthy cause.

Yep! I think I can make him work for Pulp at some point.

Aww! There were lots of nice ones I just had no way of working in to the games I'm playing. Like the Gael Goumon dapper goblin, the barbarian gobbo, several more...
-
Gael goumons was v good. But the same with me. No use for it!
-
I just got the Murch Pulp Gobbo, I have no real gaming use yet but I love Murch miniatures and it will be a joy and treat to paint my first ever Goblin
-
Already got a few from a booth in Essen and now ordered some more. Best wishes to Kev. :)
-
I've posted these elsewhere but there aren't enough painted examples!
George Fairlamb's Goblin Wizard with scroll carrier and Alex Huntley's shaman.

(Goblin shamaness (complete with hairy arms!) has nothing to do with Goblinaid, I just painted her at the same time. She's from the "Das Schwarze Auge - The Dark Eye" range from Ral Partha Europe, so go check out that range too, while you buy up some Goblinaid models!)
I'll give it another hour before I give in and buy a few more. Kev Adams is ace!
-
That Goblin wizard is one of the figures to which I'm especially looking forward.
-
I picked up the modern Goblinaid set and a couple of others a while back, but I didnt realise that more miniatures had been added to the range. I had to get a few more, including that Green Baron :D
-
I really like that shaman. It's a great mini. Currently it has been base coated but nothing else. I also like the boar rider. And the barbarians... And the Andy foster wizard... And the, well the list goes on!
-
I ordered a small lot too, very nice stuff.
-
ok ok ok... I put in an order! ;)
-
How long do they usually take to post out? because I placed and paid for my order a week ago and it is still marked as processing on the website
-
Been wondering that meself. But, the shop notice did say there'd be delays, didn't it? I mean, I expect they got a handful of last-minute orders... :` ;)
-
I have usually found them to be quite speedy to ship stuff. Seems they have been inundated with Goblin aid orders these past few days.
-
Hm, you just reminded me I haven't gotten mine when shipments from the UK normally arrive very quickly.
Oh well, I doubt Ral Partha's going to stiff me. ;D
-
I also haven't receive my order yet. Like Vermis said, probably they have to sort out the last minute orders.
-
They posted this on their FB page on Jan 27:
It's the final week for buying the Goblinaid miniatures from our store and the orders have been piling up! It should be a good final month for Kev We may not get some of these posted until next week, so apologies in advance if there is a delay with yours...
-
Mine arrived today, and they're all well worth it! 8) 8) 8)
I got the pirate, the one with the massive sword, the monkey goblin, the Bob Olley goblin and Mark Evans' wolf rider.
-
Mine came in the mail on Monday. :D
Nice stuff!
-
Got mine too. This gobbocopter could use some assembly instructions! ;D

I am trying to finally build the copter goblin now, but these images (showing assembly instructions) no longer work and unfortunatly I didn't save them. I'm 90% sure I know how they fit together but I'd like to double-check if I could. Does anyone have these or a shot of the copter goblin from the back?
Also, anyone know how Kev's doing these days?

I've edited the original post.

Wound up assembling it yesterday on guesswork and dim memories, hoping I had it right.
Luckily, your update appears to confirm I did! :D
