Four-Color Figures Miniature Blog
« on: February 27, 2009, 01:29:28 PM »
I started a blog. Not terribly original, I know, but I will use it to talk about my miniature and RPG related projects, and many of them will be superhero and SuperFig related.

Check it out here:

http://four-color-figures.blogspot.com/

I hope to maintain a pace of 2-3 posts per week. I'll be revealing more upcoming SuperFigs as I get them painted and photographed.

Thanks for checking it out!

I would like to actually see a picture of the Press gang on the Four Color figure site.  I think you would make some money with them(If i remember corectly they were generic guys in jumpsuits) so many people have been looking for something like that.  I have read request for figures on lots of web site but people like to see before they buy.  Just and idea. :)

Can you buy SuperFigs in the UK?  I know WestWind used to sell them and I bought a stack of models off them (just before they had an end of range sale...)  Is there anywhere else that stock the full range?

A good idea long overdue. I will do this tonight. Post it tomorrow (USA, EST). Thanks!

I am still working on this. If anybody knows a shop or an individual in UK or Europe with the ability to stock SuperFigs (a large line of miniatures with over 100 codes), we will offer generous terms. We can eliminate the blisters and go to baggies if this helps for the Euro market.

PM me or reply here with any leads. Thank you!

Have you tried Arcane Miniatures? It's a web store that has free shipping in the UK or the option of express shipping, which is why I buy from there relatively often. They also stock a huge range of different companies, and I'd certainly get some Superfigs if they were to be stocked - I run a SuperSystem campaign at the University of Sussex gaming group, so the ease of access would be very helpful.

Also I've heard a few hints from the yahoo group of a third edition of the rules?

Have you tried Nick at Northstar?

http://www.northstarfigures.com/

Can't speak on his behalf, of course.  But if he stocked them I'd be likely to buy a few as the one I had painted up rather nicely.

I will look into Arcane Miniatures. And Northstar. Also, yes, I am officially working on 3rd ed. SuperSystem. It will incorporate a new dice costing scheme and some of the experimental rules from the 2007 Holiday Special.

I recently got in touch with old glory U.K. about superfigs and was told that they can order them from the U.S.,  when they place an order to restock some of their other mini's.
 It is cash or card details up front and once the order is placed you're commited to buy, but not charged until mini's sent on from O.G.UK.
 It would be great to be able to get them off a U.K. web store though. :)
