I guess we did a decent job of tapping into the group consciousness of the player base if you guys can successfully identify a model that never even had artwork from a heavily cropped photo!  :D

Here's the Dark Puppeteer in all his hideous glory, based on concept art created for us by comic artist Nat Jones.  I don't have the model here right now to measure precisely, but it stands over 6" / 15cm tall assembled, and includes the scenic base (with horrified agent) and clear acrylic post for mounting.  We'll be releasing this either next Spring or Summer, depending on how the schedule works out, so the contest winner will be getting one well in advance of public availability.

You don't know the half of it. The best part about it is that it bobbles! That is to say, when you move it around on the table it bobbles around on the rod and kinda...bobbles...I don't know how else to describe it...there are no human words to describe the horror!

So, get painting and you could win your very own...way before anyone else. A then you may experience the bobbling! The horrific bobbling!

Very nice model...definitely one that I'll buy. I especially love the base with the man squirming on the ground.

When you can devour the minds of your victims telepathically, who really needs a mouth?  :P

The price isn't set yet, but based on the material costs you can probably expect it to be similar to the Crypt of Cthulhu ($30).

Two more entries arrived yesterday - the field of competitors is growing!

Oh I get it, so the mind in mouth is symbolic. :p

Is there a 'horrified agent going mad' miniature which is standing up? I've always wanted one like that.
