I think I am going to use Blue Tac (poster putty) swap to magnets later, appears the size I need are low and I can't recall the exact size...what size did you plan to use?

Not sure.  I tossed the packaging on my supply long ago and just have all sticking to the duct work of my basement, above my work bench. So when I need one I just reach up and grab it.

The very, very small ones. If I do end up making one swappable I will do a blog post and take some pics.

I never envisioned anyone using magnates, I can't wait so your results guys!  I'll blog it on the site and link to your blogs if you manage to get it done.

Scott,

Great work on that guy!  You'll never guess who's on my painting table at the moment!  Great minds and all that...



And here's another take on him that will grace the store when I get my hands on him

Last time, I ordered what I did from my previous order, not sure if the history is still there from the last order...it has been some time...May have to just measure and guess.

Just looked this up....it is either

My painting skills are inadequate to show off the models, so Van Helsing is whipping them out pretty quick.  Once I get them, they will be added to the store to show the potential of the figures.  I can't wait, he's very talented!

Got mine today!! bought the whole set. They are great figures and really well done on both sculpting and casting,  Plus a cool company to deal with,now if I can just paint them to look as good.

I used to be with it, but then they changed what it was. Now what I'm with isn't it anymore and what is it seems weird and scary.

I would also like to echo the Commander's sentiments - very quick dispatch and delivery, and superb clean castings. Really happy with these.  :D  Thanks also for the extra Goon, Fergal, I'm sure I'll be able to find a place for him somewhere!
