Here's a preview sculpt of a certain character - it's not one of the Mongoose range but is done with their and Rebellion's approval.
Proceeds are raising money for Cancer and MS charities, the proper launch is next week but they've just set up the fb page here.

It's a cracking figure, and a good likeness. (but I still want to know where Minty got a mk2 Lawgiver from)

That's amazing, Steve. What size is it (he asked, innocently)?

Hi,
They've said roughly 3cm - not sure if it's slightly bigger than the mongoose figures.
Cheers

Yeah, I never got into the whole miniatures thing, but it's been great to see the Mongoose kickstarter campaign and this coming together.

Yeah, i may have to have one of them- and after seeing it i followed the link in the new thrill-mail to the miniatures game/kickstarter thing and found myself wondering what it's all about. Im honestly perplexed, but at the same time find myself wanting them all. But of all of them, it's a little edmund dehn i want the most.

Make a donation to one (or both) of the dedicated Just Giving Pages:

Please include:

Fantastic. It really is a superb sculpt - much better then the old 40k models I used to collect.

Have you seen the latest news. Donate at least £35 and you'll get the Judge Minty sign. No not the one in my cellar, they're making a miniature of that as well.
Don't worry if you donated slightly less, you can top up. How cool is that :thumbsup:
Don't forget to tick the GIFT AID.

They're making a miniature version of the cellar?
Won't this break the laws of physics if you have to have a miniature version of the cellar in the cellar?
