Emperor

Might not be as bad as you think.

The design appeared at the Zarjaz! exhibition in 2005:

And the toy has been floating around since 2008 when some pricing was revealed (although they will not be the current pricing but there might be something we can all afford - I'm getting one, probably the small variety):

QuoteTADO Death Plush will come in 2 sizes:
- SMALL @ approx 8-inches with a SRP of £12.99 (tentative June-2008 drop)
- LARGE @ approx 20-inches with a SRP of £44.99 (tentative September-2008 release)
- if the response is good, there may well be a Special Edition!

We Are Tado have announced when it'll be out, so we'll know soon enough:

QuoteHere's something very horrid indeed! At long last our 2000AD x Together Plus mini Judge Death's are ready to break out and cause some BADNESS!! TogetherPlus will be flying in a load of the little guys specially for the Kapow! Comic Con at The Business Design Centre in London. Wahoo!

if I went 'round saying I was an Emperor just because some moistened bint had lobbed a scimitar at me, they'd put me away!

I'm going to Kapow , so if anyone wants me to pick a Death up for them - assuming it's guaranteed - please get in touch.
...because I hate you.

The image isn't showing up for me, but I guess it's this one...

The shiny version of the Pete Fowler Nemesis is now available via the link below; $28.50 each plus (probably) $15 shipping (trackable, from Hong Kong). Not sure when the TWO others will appear - one orangey-brown, one green - but I'll try and keep an eye out and update here when I know more.

Lurvely.

Ordered.

And I'll have an Orange and a Lime when they're ready.

Cheers Ming and good going to the Merchandising Bot involved in this.

What happened to the wooden looking one? Or is the orange one what the wooden one ended up looking like?

Anyone know?

Cheers.

I'll see if I can find out about the plain brown wood-effect one and report back (travelling now, so might take a day or two).  Would be a shame if the orange one is a replacement / colour tweak, but they're still great.

Given that these are probably made in pretty limited quantities, I'm surprised we didn't get an official heads up - they're bound to be popular, after all.  I'd completely forgotten about them until someone pointed out to me that they'd just gone on sale.

Judge Fish

Thanks, I appreciate it.

No big hurry though. :)

I asked Pete Fowler about it and he's sure that the original brown Nemesis is still on the cards (and he referred to it as the regular colour).

Judge Fish

Cool, thanks for the info, I really do appreciate it.

I'll hold out for that one then. :)

Thanks for pointing this out :)

Dunk!

Wow, big surprise my Nemesis just got delivered to work. Thought it'd be a couple of weeks.

Thought it would be bigger too, but it's still a lovely bit of 2000ad merch.

Good to hear, Dunk!  The link I provided above mentioned these were about 15cm high - is that accurate?
