Announcements / Helltrekkers - Released December 2023
« on: 22 January, 2023, 06:31:45 AM »
Helltrekkers: Webshop Exclusive (Hardback) - Hardback, 6th December 2023
"They were the new frontiersmen-men and women who hated life in Mega-City One so much that they were willing to travel 2000 kilometres across the radiated desert known as the 'Cursed Earth' in order to start a new life. The chances of reaching the new territories are slim - the hostile environment is full of danger, including acid rain downpours, killer viruses, mutants and herds of hungry dinosaurs! To increase their chances of survival, Helltrekkers set off in large convoys. But sometimes fellow travellers can cause just as many problems as the threats from outside!
"Written by John Wagner and Alan Grant, The Helltrekkers is a monumental survival story and one of the earliest Dreddverse spin-off strips."
Interestingly, both Amazon UK and The Book Depository are listing this as the 'webshop exclusive' version. I'm assuming they'll actually be selling the paperback version, but that otherwise the details will be identical and therefore reliable to flag here.

I love this Haynes manual type cover. If that's the webshop exclusive cover, I'll be getting this from the webshop! And Tharg, that might even make a good t-shirt, mug or notebook.

Interestingly, both Amazon UK and The Book Depository are listing this as the 'webshop exclusive' version. Surely they'll actually be selling the (non-exclusive) paperback version, but otherwise the details should be the same.

That's a great drawing.
I think the Sulaco influenced a lot of spaceship designs since it appeared in Aliens. Unless it has a forerunner?

I would have also gone with the holster over the groin rather than the armoured codpiece. I know it's the design Carlos came up with for the TV show but it gives me flashbacks to Stallone Dredd.

Looks good, but his nose looks wrong. It could be the angle, but Carlo's always drew it (pre-break) like a fish finger.

Well, that answers the question. Noteworthy bodging in colour, creating a unique variant version Robohunter for our collections.

News / Re: Hiya Toys Judge Dredd range?
« on: 16 January, 2023, 01:20:18 PM »The Hiya site says they’ve sold out of the Dredd figure. Hopefully that’s just ‘for now’.
Looking back at their other lines (Aliens - marines for example) I don’t think they do a re issue so it will only be what’s out there with other vendors or eballs 🙁
We'll get another chance when they release the Dredd with Lawmaster.

The B&W listings seem to have disappeared, but here's the direct link to B&W Dredd

The Hiya website now includes B&W Dredd and B&W Mortis (though as "Coming Soon", like everything else).

There's something going on with the title too. Is the different colour at the end of 'Time' meant to give the alternative reading "It's About Me"?

This is better, but not by much. It's obviously a great self-portrait by Bolland, but there's not a lot of design going on in this cover design.
