Yes, they'll be on ebay.

For £92! The price will go down soon enough I'm sure.

Link-if you're after one it might be worth contacting 3a via cs@threeaonline.com (i'll check that) as there may have been cancelled orders. Plus I'll keep an eye peeled for one if you like.

Royal Mail still have no information about mine - how can they have issued a tracking number a week ago and still not have it in the system?
Same here.

Same here.

The company that had my tracking info was www.quantiumsolutions.com using the tracking number from the email.

One of the things I love about this figure - apart from the fact I like big robots- not in a Lobster Random kind of way, I'd like to add - is the sense of character. Something shown in the comics from the beginning and really embodied here in solid 3D, so to speak.

I'll admit to wondering why they started with Mongrol, rather than the archetypal ABC Warrior - Hammerstein but looking at him you can maybe see why they did. That being said I'm very much looking forward to seeing Hammerstein. I'd be up for a 12 scale version.

By the way, the part of the Mess Jar that slots into Mongrols shouder is actually a different shape to the actual slot in mine. I.e. the slot is rectangular while the 'bit' (what do you call it?) has angled sides. So no wonder it won't connect. It did stick for a while but then popped out! I had to hunt for it under the sofa at one point. Don't want that molton fella to get out... ;)

ah buggerit, I've snapped off his chin-ring trying to attach the chain.

The Mess canister is tricky but mine seems to be staying in place now, until I change his pose again probably.
I didn't realise it could be opened and The Mess can be removed until it accidentally came open as I tried to attach it.
Dumb all over, a little ugly on the side.

Yeah, it's one of the things that really blew me away with the 1/6 Mongrol and still does. They managed to capture that essence of slightly unhinged rage that I always liked about Mongrol. And the irreverence of Ro-Jaws shines through too. Brilliant stuff! I still wish they'd get the skates on for other 2000ad figs, but the wait, though frustrating, is always worth it in my experience.

Can you imagine Blackblood done by them? Ho-boy, I can imagine him! I can imagine him good!

I had a 'holy sh*t!' moment the first time I caught a glimpse of Mongrol side-on, and he looks exactly - exactly - like a panel from the first McMahon-drawn Mongrol story. Really impressive stuff. Has McMahon seen this beast yet, does anyone know?
