Just received my John Carter figure from Ironclad, my first order, to check figure compatability.
And I am very impressed! Really good figure, nicely realised with loads of detail.

Holmes and Watson, Mina Harker and Agents Laurel and Hardy are definitely on my shopping list, as soon as the Quartermain figure gets added to the shop.

I'm curious, have you read Alan Moore and Kevin O'Neill's excellent League of Extraordinary Gentlemen graphic novel?
Can we look forward to Captain Nemo, Mr Hyde and the Invisible Man figures? Please?

Really nice range.
Thanks.

Parroom Station has already done all three, actually. Two versions of Captain of Nemo. In fact, they've done the whole league, in a very LOEG style. The invisible man was a limited edition giveaway. Essentially a stand with footprints;)

I saw Quatermain at Triples. Exactly as you would imagine him and I dont think anybody would be disappointed buying him sight unseen. At ?3.00 a pop though I just could not justify buying all the range so I do not have a picture to show.

I don't know how I've missed this thread for so long....

Now I DEFINITELY have to order some Ironclad stuff before long. Laurel and Hardy!! My second wet dream come true within a month or so  ;D (The first one was the 50's post-apocalyptic game being announced by Brigade Games.

With War of the Ring also released (haven't got my copy, yet) I hope to get the new job I'm applying for, so I can get some time for painting this spring....

Nice figures, Watson is superb. I think maybe Holmes isnt gaunt enough though!

Well I hope you guys get your stuff quickly - been waiting nearly three weeks for my order.

I know, I know, there's been Salute and Triples in between so John's probably snowed under with orders, but Mummy, I want it now...!  :D

He was one of the ones I bought, along with Holmes, Mina and the British tank commander in Home Service dress.

I agree, they are not cheap, which meant I couldn't afford all the figures I wanted, but well worth it  :D

I shall definitely re-visit Ironclad at Expo in June. It's got a good list manufacturers attending:

Oh yes, John(Ironclad) has read LOEG and has promised us a Nemo, invisible man and a Mr Hyde along with a submarine.... ;D

Count me in! That reminds me, I really must re-read the first two LOEGs soon.

But can he get them done for the first weekend in June?   lol

But he looks just like Jeremy Brett! A perfect representation of the TV Holmes.

Looking forward to the LOEG minis.
