Beautiful figures. You should get one done of the Golden Guardian.
-
:o
Very nice sculpts.
That reminds me I need to get the first two.
-
Minerva reminds me quite a lot of a Swedish Actress named Christina Lindberg. She did a film where she had a patch over one eye.
-
Cap't. Wolf almost looks like he is wearing bell-bottoms. Fab.
-
I AM SO EXCITED. I've been wanting Minerva for a long time, but I had no idea that "Captain Wolf" was none other than... WELL! I AM GOING TO GO READ ALL MY HUGO PRATT RIGHT NOW. HNNNNGH.
Haha, this is so funny, because I just bought the Foundry version secondhand and was planning on doing some complex surgery to make him taller (the foundry fellow is tiny after all). My laziness has saved me for once!

More like sailors' togs.
-
I'd still like to see a head option for Phantom Ace, bare headed and no goggles, sort of like Bill Campbell in "The Rocketeer".
-
Great minis! Be ordering up some of them! +1 for the alternate head for Ace.
-
Looking forward to that preorder date!

This looks like a perfect pulp family :D

This looks like a perfect pulp family :D
lol Just need to get little cousin Lillie Poots (http://www.statuesqueminiatures.co.uk/p/8779654/sa001-lillie-poots.html) in there now!
Glad these seem to have gone down well. I'm enjoying sculpting pulp characters. :)
-
Nice miniatures :-*
I still must decide if buy phantom ace and use for a conversion I'm planning o_o
-
These are a definite must-have! Roll on the pre-order date! :-*
-
No idea what I'd do with Minerva, but I've just gotta have that Corto... Er, I mean Captain Wolf.
-
Ahh I ain't even going to bother trying to fight it...will just send Dave n Mila all my cash each week....they keep tormenting me with new must haves...
Pete
-
Great news!!
Its funny but i have just finished the first set yesterday....
I will post some pictures as soon as possible.
Im collecting minis for quite a time and i have to say they were one of the biggest surprise!!
Everybody who likes pulp minis just have to buy them.
Dont look for excuses...just buy them!!! :D
It seems to be a great partnership with statusque and i also have to mention his perfect service and fast shipping.
I really hope this range will grow!!!!
Thank you!!!
Florian
(Just ask for a preorder of 3 sets....remember the bigger the success the more will come)
-
OMG
You hit a nerve with these - preorder?

Aaaaaach!!!

Make it STOP!!!

FYI, I will probably be buying two sets (I want one Minerva for a conversion and one for her own sake, unmodified). So if someone wants Corto and only Corto, let me know and we can work something out - I would have put him up on the bazaar anyway!
EDIT: I will be buying from Statuesque, rather than going through Dave & Mila (just because there are a couple other Statuesque items I want to pick up all in one go), in case that matters.
-
THANKS for all the positive comments and support! We certainly appreciate it.
Here're the character cards for Captain Wolf and Minerva --

In other news, I've taken a comparison photo of all four Pulp Alley figures alongside some Copplestone, Hasslefree and Crooked Dice figures. It's a very wide photo so you can view it by clicking this LINK (http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-UnEXwKTys3k/U68nzHgN3DI/AAAAAAAABT4/iyg31ZrzBes/s1600/comparison2s.jpg).
Hope that helps! :)

Will this next set be the same price as the first? And Andrew, since you are the sculptor, I will ask you what a couple of us have said. Is there any way to get an alternate head for Phantom Ace? I'd love to see something like Bill Campbell in "The Rocketeer", as that is how I envision painting the figure.

Can't wait to order these from Statuesque. Such cool sculpts 8) 8) 8)
-
Captain Wolf looks so good. :-* I can't wait to get him painted up.
-
Pre-ordered mine this morning from Statuesque! ;D

I think you'll be really happy with these. They look even better in the flesh... err... metal. Andrew did an awesome job! :-*

Saw the preorder available yesterday and snagged the new guys then. Looking forward to them.
-
Oh yeah... Double-tapped that one. Gary42 and I are set. :D
-

I agree as I'd like to model an officer's cap on him and turn him into a member of the Blackhawk team from the comics of my distant youth.
-
Blaaaackhawks Mr Peabs!
-
I might convert mine to a Lobster Johnson. Not sure yet.
-
Blaaaackhawks Mr Peabs!
'Yumpin yimminy!' Looks like I'm not the only one who remembers the halcyon days...... :)
-
Love the Blackhawks. Painted some up for Mr. Peabody.

Cool, I'd like to see those. I think Phantom Ace and Pulp Girl's outfits could pass for Blackhawks. ;)

Copy that. I just have to do the bases on them and they are ready to play... Should'a done them months ago. :'(

But do you paint the uniforms real black or comic book black, ie dark blue?

The ones for the US are delayed because it takes extra time to ship the package to us.
I don't think Fram or Joras are in the US.
Thanks

Yep. I'm in Canada.
I could have ordered from the PA main site, and I guess that might've been a little faster and cheaper (not sure... even at the increased rates, Royal Mail isn't too bad to Canada and the European postal services are always very quick), but as mentioned, I wanted several other Statuesque figures.
-
Hi guys,
Yeah, the castings arrived here at Statuesque Asylum on Monday and the allocation for Pulp Alley in the US were sent to them the same day. I received the castings about a week later than expected (the original date was based on a previous longest turnaround time :( ) so I'm sorry that the folks over the other side of the pond will have to wait a bit longer. Spent all day packing orders today then created one hell of a queue at the post office posting all the pre-orders I had received.
Don't forget, the Pre-Order discount and deals are still running but they end this Friday! :)
