I love the Quar. 

Josh Q (the inventor) has done such a brilliant job creating the characters, the art, the game, the environment, the backstories, and so on. 

I love that these little guys are so whimsical as opposed to being hypermasculine like, say, Space Marines.

I would so enjoy a comic book series about these guys, as well.

I could not agree more. This is why I am so passionate about promoting them… I want to see Josh get the resources that would allow him to continue expanding the world of the Quar and all the possible supporting material.

He has an excellent series of letters between a Quar on the front and his nephew back home. It would make a great graphic novel or animated show.

Some important news regarding Zombiesmith.

Best to let him tell you himself.



Josh has a new company partnership project…. Strange Plastic

https://www.strangeplastic.com/

… and he has a lot of plans for the future of the Quar, including STLs.

That's a fair pile of plastic!


Nice to see solid progress on this great looking range. Sad I sold my pile but they had gathered dust for too long  o_o

With no LFGS in easy reach I am stuck using post.


This type of packing is great for retail display but a nightmare for postal services as the figures bounce around while being delivered :-(


Bring back foam backing in blister packs...

There is a lot of nice  stuff, but the problem with that all is , we need a “Stockist in the Eurozone (not UK!!)!”.
