    Fantastic figure!!! :)

    He is handling a Lancaster Howdah 4 barrel pistol - It is a "real life" steampunk weapon. And not alone, shall I say ... Victorian period really produced quite strange and odd guns.

    As far as I am remembering right now, I'm not recalling any other figure handling this pistol. Fantastic, Stu!!! :joyful:

    Stormtroopers have done it again. An exceptional figure and a definite 'must buy/must have' as it is currently a limited edition. I do hope demand is such that a further production run becomes necessary so that as many who would like a copy can purchase it.

    One of my fave period songs. Part of an LP bought at the NAM in the 70's. I think all the songs are on youtube.

    Can I also recommend an excellent biography of Burnaby,The True Blue by Michael Alexander which has an excellent account and period illustration of his death at Abu Klea.

    You are going to need more than 28 of these for sure.

    I really like the look of this one. I hope there will be a longer run in the future as the 28 are sure to go fast - way before I can really justify buying anymore figs (v tempting though).
    All the best with the release Stu.
    Cheers

    Many thanks for taking the time to respond,,,,greatly appreciated

    Unfortunately it seams from my stats that this will be a one moulder !!! a growing trend in todays market.

    This piece is unlikely to be painted.

    It really is a lovely sculpt and all credit must go to my friend Antonio.

    Cheers

    Stu!,

    A cracking piece! so much detail at 75mm! admittedly I have never heard of this 'Chappie', however it does have me searching yet again.(y)

    This piece will be snapped up. 'Toot-Sweet'. ;)

    High regards,

    Mark.
