I'm gradually finding the various moulds and masters with a view to releasing them - this time without any finish, of course.

Does "gradually finding" imply that you have already found some?
If so can we just order the ones you have found?

From memory. I've found existing production moulds for Butler, Dog and Mrs. White. Got the master moulds for the whole set so, if I can't turn up production moulds, there's no problem (apart from time) in getting some new moulds for the whole range.

Would be brilliant if they became available to mere mortals. If there are any other Copplestone masters of any kind you could (re-)release, I wouldn't mind that at all!!!
If you don't believe in lead, you're already dead.

My Cluedo Super Sleuth set turned up today. Lovely figures.

I'd still pick up set from Doug though :)

which ever company did the first coating didn't bother to remove mould lines.   ::)
right! all around they have big and awful mould lines, this and the "not-really-ink-wash" discouraged me to work on the minis, but watching your result it obvious is a worthy invesment of time.

I really like the figures but for a game I won't play the going price (plus shipping from UK) runs, median, circa $80 on FeeBay. 
I got mine less than one year ago on evilbay for 5 or 6 GBP, if you keep an eye open I would say you will find one cheaper than $80 for sure.
In addition to the minis, the board it's modular, a set of room tiles, you generate the board as long the game advances, the boards are nice, a bit on the style of the old Hall of Horros tiles from GW, useful for call of cthulhu or pulp rpg gaming.
I'm not an expert on Cluedo and i never played this edition, but fast reading the rules IMHO looks like an interesting variation of the classic cluedo.

Sign me up for a set of these, when they're available from EM4 :)
