*Sigh* I know, I know...

I never thought I'd be this fatalistic about new Rattrap releases :lol:

EDIT: Looking at what I've written, I realize I might have made it sound like those Incas were being made by Rattrap, which they're not. Damn, it's hard trying to juggle several "secrets" at once :roll:

Uh-oh, better get out while I can! I regret to tell you your agents will break down my door to find my quarters vacated, the secret compartment beneath the floorboards emptied of gold. Were they to inquire at the harbour, they would find I've joined up with an expedition to the New World; for I doubt they would follow me up the Orinoco.

One hopes beyond hope it caters for us Meso American freaks otherwise I will be sacrificing my youngest to the great Quetzacotyl to ensure favour with the gods.

Just think of it the colourful wide and varied tribes fighting with obsidian blades, the small detachment of Conquistadors and their faithful native allies battling through jungles, swamps in searhc of Eldorado or escaping the hordes of Inca/Mayan/Colla/Tlaxcaltecs

Not to mention the jungle tribes of cannibals and head hunters such as the Tupi and Aimore

Ships, canoes abound and I havent even got started on lost worlds. :mrgreen:  :D  :love:

Bit of an oddity, this: a company named 'COG' produces dinosaur toys and stuff for kids. This is a 'Dino Exhibit' skeleton of a Stegoceras. Not too shabby: the hands, feet, skull and jaw are moveable. All it needs is some removal of mould lines and hiding a joint or too. Not anatomically perfect, especially looking at the rib cage from below, but good enough for undeadly adventures. Zombies - ptchah, make mine a dinoskelly!  :)

For some reason the image link is not working, so a url will have to do - sorry all. :(

Hear, hear!

I'm busily building a sloop on he templates provided in LotHS (yes, the guy with the most horrible modelling skills, ever, has made his first purchase (ever) of balsa wood) - and while I'm working on a campaign-setting for using Pirates of the Spanish Main ships for grand tactical maneuvering between LotOW/UtBF I could really use some swashbuckling rules for meso-american and carribean natives (I do not know if there's some in the UtBF, as I,  :oops: haven't purchased it yet, but...).
Ask at the LAF, and answer shall thy be given!

Ummm, nope - I tried to look mine up but cannot find them. The brand name is COG, they're made in China, and they come packed in a rectangular perspex box which doubles as a display. Thet cost around 7 Euros each, are posable to some extent, and that chap shown is out of the pox - I still have to clean him up for the few mould lines and cover the jawbone joints, and drybrush a bit. Others in the range include the more  obvious triceratops, stegadon and T-Rex. I chose this guy as he's a bit less frequently encountered. Plans for him? Well, scenery in Pulp (breaking into a museum to steal the mask of someone or other type scenario), scenery in prehistoric stuff, scenery in dino-hunting, and guest appearances in undead-type games :) A Night in the Museum, anyone?  :)
