Hi Everyone,
Just a quick post to say YES we do read these pages.......and we'd like to invite you all to take a look at our stand at this years Thought Bubble Show
www.thoughtbubblefestival.com
- sadly our only show in the UK this year.
Heres a link to our latest news letter- and a shot of the prototype Black and White McMahon Statue- one of a few colour versions we are looking into- which will be on the stand too !
We've got some offers on at the time of the show, so it could be a good time to suggest to family what Christmas presents you'd like this year ?
Hopefully we'll put some names to forum faces- see you there !

Looks amazing. 1) I'd like a full colour one done with the standard cover palette at the time
2) a black and white version with black lines (like Mike Mignola's Batman Black and White and Neca Ninja Turtle Black and white set) and zippotone dots for the shadows.
Say, would it be possible to get a plain black and white one you could customize yourself?

Gotta say I like the way they showed four different designs to see which to run with, and decided to do all of them! I like the full colour one best, though it seems it'll be the only one not available from PR.

Like a fool, I forgot the time (I know, I know...) and only place my order (The black and white variant, of course!) at about 8:25pm. So I imagine I've missed out on the signed version, but hey....
The figure does look stunning, so I'll be more than happy to receive that, sometime next year.

Going by that photo, the figures are; 1.) Kit form 2.) Lined 3.) Colour and 4.) Black and White.
So, if you ordered b&w then you'll be getting the figure on the far right. I guess as its a pre-order, and not due to ship until sometime next year, you could ring up/mail PR and ask to change your order?

Were now into March, so I guess these might be landing soon-ish? The next 3, or 4 weeks maybe?
But just looking through this thread again, and at all the photo's, makes me wish they was here already..

Thanks for asking Steve.
So, 23 days and counting then!
These will land when they do I guess, and I always factor in that there might be delays etc, but mightily looking forward to seeing this.

From Planet Replica's facebook page -- "A quick McMahon statue update to say that they are due for a completed paint QC check this coming Friday (10th). More details as soon as we can!"
So, maybe these will be landing in the next couple of weeks?

The Lined and B&W ones come in four parts and one of those parts is an extra eagle (you can see those in th photo) and the DIY comes in 13 parts, for ease of painting and assembly. Oh and the McMahon print is as though he's done an individual sketch for everyone. Well done Planet Replicas :thumbsup:

You can try info@planetreplicas.com, but I'd give it until at least Monday, there are quite a few to get through.

I tried ordering the coloured version on release day and couldn't. Ordered on my phone and ordered the B&W (black & grey) instead of the lined version.

Yeah, the coloured version was an exclusive to comic shops in a three-pack.
The webshop still has the lined one listed as available, maybe worth asking if a swap is possible?

Mine arrived today and like John Mills said - worth waiting for!
It has a satisfying weight to it and really captures McMahon's Dredd.
Dredd stands well on the plinth and the eagle stays on his shoulder if you just put it there - not sure I'll use any glue.

Yes, it stays there so well that you forget it's not glued so when you lift it to move it it falls off on the floor and breaks a wing.
Can I recommend you DEFINITELY use glue.

a tiny blob of blu-tak in the socket gives a firm stick without the permanence of glue.
I know Mcmahon was famous for his big boots, but I was still surprised by how tiny dredd's head is compared to his knees and feet!

Hiya,
from Dan...
"that's in primer so any paint would work, spray or other wise.
I'd presume they use a non waterbased paint for the primer, so any paint system should be fine on that"

There are indeed - trying to blend a few different McMahon styles, from his early Annual style to the Titan covers - avoided the temptation to go yellow knee and elbow pads, mainly due to how hard it is to paint yellow! Silver badge that McM started and ended his colour versions with (he gave in to the yellow badge for a time in between the early annuals and the Titan books, when the silver badge returns!
One thing I've noticed as consistent in McMahons Dredds are a slightly different tone of green for the belt... Having noticed it I can't un-notice it, but wonder if people will think I ran oout of the correct colour paint!

Here you go - still a good bit of tidying up to do, but the overall effect is all there - even got the lightning flashes done tomy satisfaction, which was my greatest fear! Feel free to use it, most flattering - My full name is Leigh Shepherd, and this photo is already up on my FB! I'm no model maker, and am using my old miniatures paints that spend a lot more time in dusty drawers than actually painting minis, but this is a joy to do - fits together there without any glue while I'm painting it - no real visible joints to worry about - only a fool could mangle it :)

Patrolling the mean gardens of Sutton Coldfield... Bright sun may not be too forgiving here, but at least it will show up the bits I need to finish off!

Well despite being pleased with how it'sturned out I can't take much of the credit, being very loyal to Mick Mcs original vision, from off ilver badge to slightly different green belt to crumpled uniform - it's all the genius of McMahon's vision I'm feeding off! :)

Just had a message from my local comic shop. The triple packs are in on Wednesday and myself and Pete are sorted. There is a spare set going if anyone wants one!
I thought I'd post it here before I mention it elsewhere, as these three sets are confirmed.

Heads up for our Irish chums; Big Bang Comics have three sets of the triple-packs on stock, retailing at €260.
I was sorely tempted, but didn't get one of them yesterday evening.

Correction and apologies; Big Bang Comics are selling the triple-pack for €230.
