Remember the Pete Fowler t-shirt design from the Zarjaz! exhibition?

Hope for more news on these soon - gobsmackingly lovely.
Wow that wooden one is beautiful. The metal one is shiny!
Want.
Ahh.. ain't they cute! Stick that pair on either end of your mantlepiece or window ledge will give your home some kudos. Fantastic!
WANT TOO ! At last a collectible I could convince my wife it would fit perfectly anywhere in the house (I will not say "collectible" to her but "pieces of modern art").
More news on these to follow...
Yes, just like the T-Shirt and Hoody (if I remember properly!)
:D
MUST HAVE...

There was a T-shirt. It sold out.
Yeah, I remember t-shirts being sold for a few of the designs at the exhibition.
From the Togetherplus / Unbox Twitter feed:
Quotereceived a bunch of unexpected variant Nemeses (had to look the plural up!) for @themonsterist x @2000AD collab..looking tasty!

Just had word from Pete about when these might appear:
"I believe it's being released this month though not exactly sure when"
I'll keep my eyes peeled and report back when something's announced (or someone else will, I'm sure).
Pete also mentioned some other 2000AD-related stuff that will be coming up (but gave no details). A little digging, and I came up with this (via Toysrevil):

Not going to be cheap!
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!
http://wearetado.wordpress.com/2012/04/24/pint-sized-evil-is-coming-to-kapow/
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.

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.
Dunk!
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.
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).
Cool, thanks for the info, I really do appreciate it.
I'll hold out for that one then. :)
Thanks for pointing this out :)
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.
Dunk!
Good to hear, Dunk! The link I provided above mentioned these were about 15cm high - is that accurate?
My work desk earlier. Comes up to Ro-Jaws nips - if he had any.

It looks like the other versions of Nemesis will go on sale on Friday; not sure if this includes the 'regular' brown one or not. It also seems like 2000AD will get a supply of their own (next week?) so I guess those will be in the online store - and we'll get a heads-up for that, I'm sure.
Yeah, mine came yesterday, it's ace!
Glad to hear people are liking these; will pick mine up tomorrow.
Just to confirm final cost via Unbox: $28.50 for the figure, $8 shipping (UK), $15 Europe / USA
Hello chaps.
We will be selling a variety of different coloured Warlocks on the online store next week.

Good to get confirmation, K33F - I'll spread the word and point people at the store as soon as they show up (and I'd have done so sooner if I'd known they were going to appear there as well as Unbox).
Picked mine up this morning - a very nice little bit of 2000AD merch and something of a classic design.
Good news!

Folks have noticed the brown bark Nemesis is in the shop?

Sorry for the delay - I should be able to provide you with an update when the licensee returns from China next week.
Are they likely to do the T-Shirt and Hoody that was available (in very ltd numbers!) at the Cambridge Circus event?

From the Unbox website:
If your Warlock has trouble standing gently push his arms outwards..
Take care of your Warlock and he will take care of you...CREDO! :)
I'll give that a shot Ming, cheers!
Any news on the neon versions of this figure?
My 2000ad tat itch need scratching.
Dunk!

Thankew! Up 'til now mine has been leaning back nonchalantly...
I picked up this blue one at the Tooth Booth at LSCC - either that or the brown one had been left out too long in the cold...

Sorry, just noticed this update.
Shit! If I'd known I'd have asked you to pick me one up, Strontium71.
Guess there's no chance of these turning up in the shop anytime soon?
Dunk!

I got mine in regular. Haven't taken it out of it's packet yet.
Would be interested in the silver version if I knew how to get it.
Okay I followed the link given above and have now ordered the silver one.

Ah , that's a pity :(
I would have got one for you as well but I'm sure they'll be available somewhere , sometime?
My silver Nemesis arrived in the mail yesterday.
it looks cool. I haven't taken it out of it's packet. It sits next to the wooden one.
Sorry for the delay chaps - we are still awaiting some variants - should be coming soon.
