• 0:02
  My wallet is sobbing. I can hear it.
• 0:04
  I can hear it in the hall now. It is breaking down crying.
• 0:08
  It turns out that Attila the arrogant so and so he's got a
• 0:12
  fake hammer. Oh.
• 0:13
  A. Fake.
• 0:14
  Yeah. Whoa.
• 0:15
  As I say, Dick. Welcome to episode 157 of the
• 0:21
  Allegiance Podcast, kicking off a busy couple of days in the
• 0:25
  podcast. We have this show tonight that
• 0:28
  we're going to record for going out on the usual time slot.
• 0:33
  And then we'll also have a live stream coming this Saturday to
• 0:38
  celebrate the end of the Mythic Legions, the role-playing game
• 0:41
  Kickstarter. So we're going to be live 8:00
• 0:45
  AM UK time, middle of the night 3 AMI think US Eastern Time and
• 0:53
  9:00 AM for me here in the Central European time.
• 0:56
  So that's going to be fun. Guys, are you, Are you ready for
• 0:58
  that? Because I'm not ready yet.
• 1:00
  No, no, not. At all.
• 1:02
  And I'm going to tell you now, guys, I may not be ready come
• 1:05
  8:00 on Saturday morning, but I'll be there, pretty much be
• 1:13
  there. We've pretty much a full house
• 1:15
  so you know there'll be lots of people on.
• 1:18
  SO you know, if anyone's feeling the worse for wear them out, you
• 1:22
  know there'll be plenty of people to speak on your behalf.
• 1:25
  I'm. Looking forward to it more than
• 1:28
  the rest of the day despite being an early start because
• 1:30
  once we finish recording I need to go and paint the bathroom
• 1:32
  ceiling so I doesn't get any more exciting than that.
• 1:35
  That that might be we will do 12 hour one.
• 1:38
  We just we just keep going. We'll hand over to the next to
• 1:42
  think dark hair is coming after us, but then we'll just keep
• 1:44
  going. That would be amazing.
• 1:46
  Record a bunch of other episodes just to save Rich from Yeah.
• 1:52
  That would be great. Painting above your head, That's
• 1:54
  the worst. Yeah, my shoulders really sore
• 1:56
  at the moment too. I had a big tissue massage
• 1:59
  yesterday and yeah, he did a number on me so my shoulders
• 2:02
  really sore so. And you've got them.
• 2:05
  You got a roller and stuff or you have to do with a brush?
• 2:09
  Roller. Yeah, just a short handle and I
• 2:11
  tried the long handle. Once formed there, they're
• 2:12
  rubbish. There's a couple of steps on the
• 2:15
  ladder and then, you know, roll a bit up a couple more.
• 2:18
  Guaranteed no calamities there Mal.
• 2:20
  I wouldn't. Be said about roller, I was
• 2:22
  thinking for massages or brush, but yeah, no.
• 2:28
  Well, well, let's hope somebody's holding the ladder
• 2:31
  for him at the time otherwise. It's safe.
• 2:34
  It's a proper stepladder. I'll be good.
• 2:37
  OK, We can get is it a small? Is it a small one or a full size
• 2:41
  1? Oh, full size 1 but only need to
• 2:43
  have a couple of steps. Very good.
• 2:46
  So you don't need a, you don't need like a Dwarf Legion builder
• 2:49
  standing there holding a little small one for you.
• 2:54
  And yeah, so we're going to have a bunch of our friends, our
• 2:59
  European friends. So we'll have Meg's and GUI on
• 3:01
  and Mark Calvo. We're going to do our little
• 3:03
  European adventure squad. And then we'll have a bunch of
• 3:06
  other people who are just joining in for the stream.
• 3:10
  So Curtis and Joe Gonzalez I think will be on anyway.
• 3:14
  They'd be trying to make most of the streams.
• 3:16
  And we may have one or two slots for other people as well.
• 3:22
  May have Wyatt from the Mythic enablers and TJ Colligan, one of
• 3:25
  our patrons. He asked if there was possibly a
• 3:28
  slot. So yeah, if we can squeeze all
• 3:30
  them in streaming, it does have limits.
• 3:32
  So we'll see what we do. We we should be able to manage
• 3:36
  that much. So that's, that's going to go.
• 3:40
  Yeah, exactly. And that's a 28 hour marathon.
• 3:44
  So you'll probably see a lot of the promo this week.
• 3:47
  And yeah, so there'll be lots, there'll be lots of mythic or PG
• 3:52
  content and we're going to attempt to create some
• 3:55
  characters and just chat about them.
• 3:56
  We're not going to do any sort of gameplay because we know what
• 3:59
  to make a complete and utter show of ourselves because we've
• 4:03
  no clue what we're doing. It's been a while, been a while.
• 4:10
  Oh, you're stealing Pete McCarthy's line there.
• 4:14
  So Speaking of the RPG, everything is now unlocked, so
• 4:22
  it's now pre-order. Last week.
• 4:28
  So everything isn't everything isn't exactly unlocked because
• 4:32
  we reached the goals. Everything's unlocked because
• 4:35
  they decided to unlock it. Now we're past 1,000,000, so
• 4:39
  that's already amazing. But there is no goals to be kind
• 4:46
  of reached at this stage. It's everything is now unlocked.
• 4:53
  The mythical 1.5 million I suppose would be nice to get
• 4:56
  past just to say they would have been unlocked.
• 4:59
  And of course every cent backed from this point on is a good
• 5:06
  good for the horsemen in terms of their bottom line.
• 5:09
  So we'll still be promoted in that way and.
• 5:14
  I suspect as well leave. I know I'm going to say this and
• 5:18
  but there's a little bit of them were like, OK, they've said
• 5:23
  they're not going to include the retailer pledges in in the
• 5:29
  total, but it'd be a bit stingy because there'll be a good chunk
• 5:33
  of money coming in from that aspect.
• 5:36
  So that it would be a it'd be a bit stingy to go.
• 5:39
  Nope. We're keeping this one locked
• 5:41
  because we're a couple of 100,000 off or whatever when
• 5:45
  actually it's been covered over there somewhere here as well.
• 5:48
  I suspect I might be wrong. I'm probably wrong, but I
• 5:52
  wouldn't. Maybe the interesting thing is
• 5:56
  will they reveal anything new as well?
• 6:00
  They might have something up their.
• 6:01
  Sleeves. It wouldn't surprise me with
• 6:02
  horseman being the horseman if they drop something else.
• 6:05
  That is true. That is true.
• 6:08
  Now hopefully they worked on a little bit more than the goblin
• 6:11
  for example. Given the opportunity, Rich,
• 6:17
  didn't you? Teed it up there and knocked it
• 6:20
  out of the park, No? So the the malignant Paladin
• 6:25
  Cleric, with apologies to the the Goldman crew is unlocked and
• 6:31
  from my conduct I'm apologising for the lower master character
• 6:35
  pack. He's now unlocked as well.
• 6:37
  Cool vampire dude with the weird silver legs, the RPG dice bag
• 6:44
  and the villainous standees which we get a little look at
• 6:47
  there. So it's the villainous Paladin
• 6:49
  and Cleric and the monster, the 2 characters from the the
• 6:54
  monster set. So the the Borrier type and the
• 6:57
  Varg type. Suppose that's how we refer to
• 7:00
  them. You know what, I actually
• 7:03
  haven't seen that the dice bag properly, so I've only just seen
• 7:06
  the little skulls. That's cool, I like that.
• 7:09
  It's nice, isn't it? Yeah, yeah.
• 7:12
  And then if we look at as we record here on Wednesday, how
• 7:17
  we're going, it's one point 177 million, pretty sweet.
• 7:24
  And not mine at all. Gone up a lot in the last week.
• 7:28
  We can have a look at our graphs in a SEC.
• 7:30
  And 2667 backers, so that's deadly adding backers as well.
• 7:39
  That's gone up a couple 100, isn't it, since we picked it
• 7:41
  last week, the number of backers, so that's a good sign.
• 7:44
  Definitely. Yeah.
• 7:46
  So if you see, there's the graph for the backers.
• 7:48
  So you see they're steadily also included last week just for like
• 7:53
  a frame of reference. So if we look at the last 6 or 7
• 7:57
  lines there, you can see they're adding 30 plus every day up to
• 8:03
  59 and 58 on 2 days and above, 40 on two of the days as well.
• 8:10
  So that's pretty impressive. People are still coming into it.
• 8:17
  And in terms of the funding, you can see it almost matches in
• 8:22
  terms of the more backers you're coming in, the more new backers,
• 8:25
  the the bigger you're getting in.
• 8:27
  In dollars, we had a $65,000 day there on Monday.
• 8:33
  I think that was when they announced everything was
• 8:36
  unlocked, so. Most Kickstarters would be
• 8:39
  overjoyed with that were any for the first day, wouldn't they?
• 8:41
  So sure how well the horsemen are doing that it's like, you
• 8:43
  know. Yeah, yeah.
• 8:45
  I mean, and there is lots of stuff there to, umm, you know,
• 8:50
  to choose from. So there's lots of ways of
• 8:54
  spending your money, if you know what I mean.
• 8:56
  Yeah. They also had this cool picture.
• 9:00
  This is all the figure related stuff that you get on the
• 9:03
  Kickstarter. That's a pretty cool picture.
• 9:05
  It's a. Really good picture, I love.
• 9:07
  That so you see the core characters, we got seven of
• 9:13
  those guys, including the the three villains.
• 9:17
  So you got the kind of four heroic core characters.
• 9:21
  Then you got the three villains, the two skellies and the orc.
• 9:25
  You got Mr Paladin, the famous one that was wasn't was going to
• 9:30
  be limited turned out not to be limited very popular figure, the
• 9:36
  monster builder, the villainous palden, the amazing goblin.
• 9:42
  The character packs all four five now with the loremaster and
• 9:47
  then bag of skulls heads pack bonus heads as well, the orc and
• 9:53
  the skeleton and a couple of weapons packs that you kind of
• 9:56
  forget about and all the in all the kind of chat, but everything
• 10:00
  else. So you know that's a lot of
• 10:04
  stuff to put on your shelves alone from this.
• 10:07
  It's like a full big, full big wave.
• 10:10
  Oh. Absolutely.
• 10:14
  You know, no no big like creature or bear or you know,
• 10:21
  mount or anything like that, but a good few deluxe figures.
• 10:25
  All those later unlocked characters are deluxe figures
• 10:30
  and then the core figures, which I think are the best in this in
• 10:34
  this whole thing. Actually wouldn't be a bad way
• 10:37
  into the line, even as the action figures, would you,
• 10:39
  because you think about it, there's a lot of stuff there to
• 10:41
  pop and swap and and play around with and gives a real good sense
• 10:46
  of what the line is and why everyone likes it, who collects
• 10:50
  it. So that it would be a good
• 10:52
  starters set starting point for for someone new to the line.
• 10:57
  Yeah. And they're also getting fairly
• 10:59
  quickly, same in the December, aren't they?
• 11:00
  So, you know, it's a good way to get in and get it pretty
• 11:03
  quickly. Yeah.
• 11:05
  Yeah, and the amount of characters you can make, because
• 11:08
  you can do different builds, everything kind of swaps between
• 11:11
  everything mostly. Obviously you got a couple of
• 11:13
  2.0 characters that lonely swap with other 2.0 characters, but
• 11:19
  most of these can be swapped together and you've got heads
• 11:24
  packs. So that's already instantly, uh,
• 11:27
  you know, character there for you, the heads pack, so extra
• 11:32
  character. Yeah, for me they're also two of
• 11:35
  the best 2.2. I mean, yeah, I do mean 2.2
• 11:41
  characters in the line. I love the builds of the build
• 11:46
  and the you know the thing to swap it out to make.
• 11:52
  The dried one in particular is really cool.
• 11:55
  Yeah, yeah, yeah. And the skulls there.
• 12:00
  So Brett could make you even another 40 odd skeletons or no,
• 12:05
  you've got 40 bags of skulls. So how many is that times 5200?
• 12:11
  Skulls make some girls. Skull crazy.
• 12:15
  The skull, temples and all sorts in his diorama going.
• 12:20
  Skull chairs. Yeah, Skull desks.
• 12:27
  Yeah, I mean, if they were to make I'm laughing, but if they
• 12:29
  made a skull chair, I'd buy it. Yeah, kind of like a bone thrown
• 12:34
  the skeletor by the hat back in the day.
• 12:39
  Yeah, those goals that I think that's the best use from them.
• 12:42
  If you, if you're a long time, longer time collector, you've
• 12:44
  have a bunch of these. But if you want to make dials
• 12:48
  and just have a couple of skulls lying around in the dial, this
• 12:50
  is the cheapest way to maybe get them.
• 12:53
  You know, apart from fodder. Blown together in.
• 12:55
  Piles. Yep.
• 12:58
  Then the barbarian, they showed what's behind the face mask.
• 13:03
  So that's the it's got. It's an actual like face plate
• 13:08
  and maybe slightly bigger than a plate could have been A look at
• 13:11
  it there. Suppose it is a faceplate that
• 13:14
  goes in. Does look very cool in the other
• 13:16
  helmet. Yeah, yeah.
• 13:18
  And that's where the little mask is.
• 13:20
  Uh, you know, that's what we've seen that head in the mask.
• 13:24
  Yeah. And.
• 13:26
  That helmet on its own, the one that he comes with, looks very
• 13:29
  cool as well. Yeah.
• 13:31
  So this isn't the Lee J helmet, as I had done mistakenly said
• 13:34
  last week, this is the one that comes on the skeleton that's in
• 13:39
  the in the pack and therefore keyed for the barbarian.
• 13:43
  So I suppose you could use the barbarian hair, and this may be
• 13:45
  the ginger barbarian hair on this man.
• 13:48
  Oh. Yeah.
• 13:50
  To go with the actually, yeah, yeah, good call, John.
• 13:53
  Yeah, another barbarian in your collection.
• 13:57
  He would be a knight or something, but I could use the
• 13:59
  hair. Let the skin tone match.
• 14:02
  Maybe that's a yeah. If you've got a spare barbarian,
• 14:05
  swap that head out for the barbarian on the barbarian, like
• 14:07
  you say with that hair. That's cool.
• 14:10
  Thank you, John. Happy.
• 14:12
  Yeah, apologies. Enabled.
• 14:14
  Oh no, sorry, I'll be getting cease and desists.
• 14:24
  Yeah, so RPG, we're excited for the the live stream as we said
• 14:29
  and we're going to be hyping it up there and all and we're
• 14:35
  almost there. We're almost over the line and
• 14:36
  then into April to the indicated end of April for in stock sale,
• 14:42
  so. We want to shift that to end of
• 14:43
  June. That's fine with me.
• 14:44
  Yeah, yeah. Finally.
• 14:47
  Yeah. But at least it's not coming
• 14:51
  immediately so. Yeah.
• 14:54
  That's good. Maybe it's also because they're
• 14:56
  shipping these guys now. Yeah, yeah.
• 15:02
  Very excited. Too so and also the Faden and
• 15:09
  fanos so that we should be getting shipping notice for that
• 15:15
  as well then as well. I actually got a FedEx shipping
• 15:19
  notice just before we started recording.
• 15:22
  Same here. So let me see, 12 lbs is the
• 15:27
  box. So was that 6 kilos?
• 15:30
  That's a pretty big box. Did you order a few extras,
• 15:34
  John, I presume? No, it's an all in screw.
• 15:39
  That's heavy for an all in. Maybe they stuck the the all in
• 15:44
  for the Finland, but I doubt it because I'd say it's very
• 15:46
  alternative. Because the packing labels and
• 15:48
  all that would be all over the place.
• 15:52
  Yep, So pretty sweet and excited for those and we'll definitely
• 15:58
  talk about them. You're in retailer gaol again
• 16:02
  with these rich, aren't you? I am so they've given a
• 16:06
  sensitive St date of the 1st of May.
• 16:08
  So I will be waiting until you know, that's around the bank
• 16:11
  holiday here as well. So we're about to get my Oh,
• 16:15
  it's fine. As you guys know, at the moment
• 16:17
  I'm in the middle of redoing my display, which is taking an age.
• 16:23
  I've got about 60-70 figures maybe up in the last couple of
• 16:27
  weeks and it's I've been enjoying doing it and I like the
• 16:30
  look at the shelves afterwards, but dear Lord, it's hard work.
• 16:35
  Yeah, and you're currently opening your rising sun's waves.
• 16:41
  So how you I am? Yes, I've opened five so far.
• 16:45
  I've also had a look in the in the bond of our box and his
• 16:48
  claws appear intact. So that's, that's excellent.
• 16:52
  Yes. So I've opened Ragarian Broader,
• 16:57
  Neve Deshpatar and Yoshini or Josh and I or it's pronounced.
• 17:04
  Yeah. Really enjoying them all at the
• 17:06
  moment. Instant favourite.
• 17:08
  Josh and I probably just because the armour is so cool, but if
• 17:12
  you take him out because you've had that armour before, then I
• 17:14
  think it's broader. He's a really good figure and it
• 17:18
  looks, I even got the fur to, you know, to look good on it,
• 17:20
  which I wasn't convinced I'd be able to.
• 17:23
  Yeah, it's a really, really good figure.
• 17:26
  But the even that fur now it's not just an afterthought, there
• 17:29
  is little clips on it to get in the right place.
• 17:32
  So I think it it almost helps you to get there.
• 17:36
  So you say put it in the right place.
• 17:38
  Where did you put those clips? I didn't put it on.
• 17:41
  I was looking at it, but I just, you know, I was fiddling with
• 17:45
  it, but. I put.
• 17:47
  I put. It off in the end.
• 17:48
  Tauldron yes through it and they clicked him in the back, which
• 17:51
  I'm presuming. Yeah, he should.
• 17:53
  I think so, yeah. But yeah, he's my I think he is
• 17:58
  my stand out as well of the I mean Atlas and Scapular, you
• 18:02
  know, they're going to be 1010 out 10 figures, you know.
• 18:06
  So what can I say? You have to kind of look at the
• 18:13
  other ones, some kind of pick out, maybe one that's bit of a
• 18:17
  surprise or a bit of a kind of a stand out.
• 18:21
  Yeah, I was super impressive. Never as well actually.
• 18:23
  I mean, apart from the Super annoying one hour or less, the
• 18:27
  number of holes that you guys have already mentioned, I didn't
• 18:30
  think it would bother me at all. I'm just looking at again.
• 18:35
  That is a little, yeah. It's an OCD nightmare, isn't it?
• 18:38
  It's like, well, I'm tempted to say like 3 or 4 them off now.
• 18:41
  So there's really lots of holes and, you know, on just one hole.
• 18:44
  Yeah, so let's get rich an extra arrow for his OCD.
• 18:50
  And what's other than OCD is they're very specific arrows, so
• 18:55
  it's not like you can clip off the end of an old arrow.
• 18:57
  Of an old one? Yeah, absolutely.
• 18:59
  Too thin. And to be honest, finding an old
• 19:01
  one quite often tricky because they're the things that get lost
• 19:03
  easily. It's like I'm going to reboot
• 19:06
  something because I don't want anymore.
• 19:08
  I'm going to sell it. And you're like, I've got
• 19:09
  everything apart from the arrow. Where the Hell's the arrow?
• 19:11
  And it just. And these Pitar, he was
• 19:16
  obviously one of the ones who are really looking forward.
• 19:17
  To he was I do like him, but I have to put a lot of heat on him
• 19:21
  to like I can't open his hands to put a weapon.
• 19:23
  In all right. Because they're so stiff.
• 19:25
  So I'll put some. I have to put some heat on that
• 19:27
  and some heat to get the alarms in the back, which is all easy
• 19:30
  enough stuff. Yeah, I did the blow dryer for
• 19:33
  the hands. Yeah, torch in.
• 19:35
  Yeah, but the stuff he comes with is awesome with torch the
• 19:38
  the sword and the sheath is really cool looking.
• 19:40
  She. Tail goes in really nicely.
• 19:43
  Mine didn't, I have to heat that up as well.
• 19:45
  That just wouldn't sit in it. But again, that's easy an easy
• 19:49
  fix. I think once you get it, it'll
• 19:52
  it'll. Sit here.
• 19:53
  Yeah, I think Jeremy said only show you can he put it up a glue
• 19:56
  or something? A some hot glue so you can take
• 19:58
  off again if you need to. But yeah, something.
• 20:02
  Yeah, I'm, I'm, I've said I'm very bad with hot glue anytime I
• 20:07
  have to work with it. My kids are better with hot glue
• 20:09
  than me. I don't think I learned as a
• 20:12
  child, you know, and. My daughter is is good with hot
• 20:17
  glue now she does it. She loves textiles and crafting
• 20:20
  and all that sort of stuff, so I'm asking her to do it.
• 20:22
  Yeah, I can do she. Learned the hard way though,
• 20:24
  when she was in Brownies a few years ago and somebody nudged
• 20:27
  her, she's using hot glue gun and it went on the phone and she
• 20:30
  had like second degree burns or whatever it was on her thumb.
• 20:33
  It was just like, yeah, you have to use the burns unit and all
• 20:35
  this sort of stuff. So oh, I hate that, Yeah.
• 20:38
  She learned the hard way. Yeah, very good.
• 20:43
  Now you haven't got. I haven't got around to open
• 20:48
  them. You just, you need a bit of
• 20:49
  time, don't you, to sit and play.
• 20:51
  And yeah, it's like you say, heat them up.
• 20:53
  And that just happened at the time recently.
• 20:55
  So no, not pretty bad reason. Some of it is just, you know,
• 21:00
  days off. I've been finding things to do.
• 21:03
  So yeah. You're also in the middle of,
• 21:06
  you've been in the middle of your kind of moving rooms there
• 21:09
  in the house. So yeah.
• 21:10
  Yeah, it's sort of, you know, so when I had tricky.
• 21:13
  To open a full wave in the middle of all that.
• 21:15
  That's it. I'm still a bit like Rich, you
• 21:17
  know, that I'll be trying to put, I'm trying to put things
• 21:20
  back that were already, but you don't want to spend all your
• 21:23
  time doing it. And then I've been busy with
• 21:26
  various things on top of that as well.
• 21:28
  So yeah. Yeah, I'm finding it's taking me
• 21:31
  a while too, because I'm like putting together a lot of
• 21:34
  customs I hadn't put together before.
• 21:35
  And it's like brilliant finally. And then I'm like, I don't want
• 21:38
  to touch up the armour up with a bit of paint.
• 21:40
  It's like you get on the shelf, you can always take it off again
• 21:41
  later and do it. And then I want to take
• 21:44
  photographs of them all. So yeah, it's that's adding to
• 21:47
  the time as well. But yeah.
• 21:50
  And normally I get the Orleans maybe open a couple box goes in
• 21:54
  the loft for a bit because I'm doing the shelves.
• 21:56
  This is the perfect time. It's like, no, I'll open all
• 21:58
  these and then I can get my Red Suns and Noble Bare shelves done
• 22:01
  and then I can just shove the empty boxes in the loft.
• 22:04
  So it's perfect timing. Yeah.
• 22:05
  Make sure you get the noble bear done.
• 22:07
  That's very important project, yeah.
• 22:10
  I've put it as far out of the way as I can, but it's it's
• 22:12
  still clearly visible. Prime location.
• 22:19
  Well, I'd have them on a one of the bottom shelves, which you
• 22:21
  can only really see if you sat on the floor, but unfortunately
• 22:24
  I've got Brontos who's too big. It's got a bottom shelf, so
• 22:26
  they've got one of the very top of the unit slots.
• 22:29
  Whatever you think of that faction, the figures display
• 22:32
  great in the Chef because there's so much variety.
• 22:34
  Yeah, yeah. I mean, I know there is
• 22:37
  barbarian Heavy, but they're all there's all different types of
• 22:40
  figures and it's you know, you can you can have a two ways,
• 22:45
  like you'd have ether on with all your 1010 players and you
• 22:47
  know, it looks like a big kind of almost like an army and you
• 22:50
  know, lots of similar type nights.
• 22:54
  Noble bears just ragtag a bit like a bit like the Red Star as
• 22:58
  well. They're the same as the Red
• 22:59
  Star, just ragtag is great. They.
• 23:01
  Are all sorts of to prime location right in the middle of
• 23:05
  the design. It's not.
• 23:07
  I feel like I'm pointing to it, but it's actually yeah.
• 23:10
  Yeah, I think that's why I made these waves so popular with
• 23:13
  everybody, didn't it? Because it is, yeah.
• 23:14
  You aren't just getting nights, you aren't just getting orcs and
• 23:18
  goblins, just a mix of. Every true in terms of the ox
• 23:22
  crew 2, then what's the what's the top figure you're looking
• 23:25
  forward to? I think I'm going to go with the
• 23:29
  buzz off and the Phillies just just because I'm excited to buy
• 23:34
  it. Although I've really feel like
• 23:35
  that could be a there could be a mythic as well.
• 23:39
  You know I. Think that's I think that one
• 23:41
  will probably be one of the high sellers because for that reason
• 23:44
  you can probably stick it in your mythics or in your.
• 23:46
  It's great. It's a great exciting.
• 23:48
  One I think for me it's him and then after him high low crin
• 23:51
  because I just really like the new armour piece.
• 23:53
  It's just the second one from the left here on the top, yeah.
• 23:56
  With the cool. And him and then to Phillies
• 23:59
  will go great together in terms of the colour scheme.
• 24:02
  They look good on the chef together, Yes.
• 24:03
  Yeah. I think for me it's is it Kirk
• 24:09
  the Simeon dude Cog. Cog Yeah.
• 24:11
  Yes, he's he's awesome. I know we've had the suit before
• 24:14
  and everything, but I love the head and the.
• 24:16
  Different. It's a new, it's a new head and
• 24:19
  it's a new paint scheme, Yeah. And stuff like that.
• 24:22
  So yeah, yeah. And then of course you can't.
• 24:25
  You can't forget Bungie the cutest.
• 24:27
  Yeah, little Bungie all. The little blue duties name, I
• 24:30
  can't remember this on him because he's very good as well
• 24:32
  so. Oh yeah, they're all, they're
• 24:34
  all really good. Only.
• 24:36
  So we went from picking one to picking the.
• 24:39
  Whole wave. Welcome to the Mal influence.
• 24:45
  No, we did a very bad job as kind of presenting host here at
• 24:50
  the up the top because it didn't tell you what the main topic of
• 24:52
  the podcast is tonight. It's just our usual shy Raven on
• 24:59
  about the RPG at the moment. But we do have a topic.
• 25:01
  That was the one that Rich was a bit salty with me last week for,
• 25:06
  for brushing them off, but I actually found that he forgot to
• 25:10
  do one of the slides or hadn't finished one of the slides, so
• 25:13
  actually it was just as well we kept it for this week.
• 25:16
  I wasn't salty. It's all in a no way shape or
• 25:17
  form that I finished the podcast and go in a bad mouth to me to
• 25:20
  carry. Those James blunts.
• 25:26
  No. So customs parts news.
• 25:30
  Anyway, I'm still still haven't said it.
• 25:32
  That's what we were getting to March.
• 25:34
  Well, it's March. Yeah, it's April next, but up
• 25:38
  until the end of March. Yeah.
• 25:41
  Yeah. Covering back.
• 25:42
  When was the last one we did? Was starting near the start of
• 25:45
  the year, wasn't it? We did one.
• 25:47
  We did one between now and Legions Con.
• 25:50
  We did, yeah. We had like 3 months gap
• 25:52
  together the last time and then yeah, back into sort of monthly
• 25:55
  routine if we can there. Very good.
• 25:57
  So should we get on to that or is there any more things you
• 26:00
  want to get off your chest? No.
• 26:02
  I mean, excited I placed an Aliexpress order that's actually
• 26:05
  shipped. I think the last three of them
• 26:07
  before this has been cancelled by the sellers for various
• 26:09
  reasons to Serenox. So I needed I was going to get
• 26:14
  quite a few at lesions Con, but obviously they didn't have any.
• 26:17
  So I've got another couple coming from Aliexpress.
• 26:20
  OK, they're in this country, so I should have in the next couple
• 26:22
  of nights. Wonderful, Geez.
• 26:25
  So you got you got a good price on those really in.
• 26:29
  Comparatively, I think they were about £60 each.
• 26:33
  Yeah, which is not the end of the world, you know, it's.
• 26:36
  Not, not too bad. Yeah, they were 50, weren't they
• 26:38
  here? Wouldn't bore him straight in
• 26:40
  the. Yeah, and they're hard to get
• 26:42
  now. They're hard to get now.
• 26:43
  If someone was selling them locally, they'd be trying to get
• 26:46
  more than 60 for all they. 'D be after 100?
• 26:47
  Probably, yeah. Yeah, yeah.
• 26:51
  And the German retailers, uh, should hopefully soon be
• 26:54
  shipping Rising Suns and the retailer wave.
• 26:56
  That's been a bit of a delay because I believed they were
• 26:58
  getting them shipped direct from China.
• 27:00
  And then as it all kicked off in the Middle East, that, uh,
• 27:05
  caused a bit of havoc for shipping costs for from China to
• 27:09
  Europe. So I don't know what the end
• 27:13
  result of that or whether they're just take on the take
• 27:16
  the hit on them, which would be unfortunate for them and also
• 27:18
  maybe be bad for future waves in terms of them ordering, you
• 27:24
  know, extras or you know, even putting the Breeders up for who
• 27:28
  knows, or put them up for a higher price because they've
• 27:30
  always been competitively priced.
• 27:32
  So a bit of a shame that it worked out like that this time.
• 27:35
  Just the timing of it, if it was a month or two earlier, probably
• 27:38
  would have been grand. And if it was maybe in six
• 27:42
  months time it might be grand. But right now just going to have
• 27:46
  to suck up the delay. It's not the worst thing in the
• 27:48
  world, but hopefully, hopefully we get them soon.
• 27:55
  We've got the invoice to pay, so that's a good sign.
• 27:57
  That means must mean they're on their way.
• 27:59
  But I haven't inquired further other than, yeah, they said
• 28:03
  they'd be here soon. So, you know, and that they
• 28:06
  were, yeah, they had lost a lot of margin based on the recent
• 28:11
  geopolitical events. So it's a shame for them.
• 28:14
  Yeah, it's, yeah, I had the invoice obviously just through
• 28:18
  you John for that as well. So a lot of money going out at
• 28:21
  the moment, hence if they want to put the ISS back, it's fine
• 28:23
  with me. Yeah, well, other thing that'll
• 28:26
  be money, well, maybe not necessarily money directly going
• 28:29
  out, but the Legions Con Hotel and all that kind of stuff will
• 28:33
  be going up for for grabs for the rooms and stuff in April.
• 28:41
  It's been indicated no exact date yet, so it was April last
• 28:43
  year as well, around the middle of April or so.
• 28:46
  So, umm, I know as vendors, we get a couple of days earlier
• 28:52
  notice on it to, to secure a room.
• 28:55
  So we're looking that way. That's maybe a perk of being a
• 28:58
  vendor. And then everyone else will have
• 29:00
  to scramble after that. And don't think there's no money
• 29:03
  down for the hotel room. But you know, you got a Booker,
• 29:06
  you got to get in and then you got to get your flights and
• 29:08
  stuff. And that's where the money will
• 29:09
  be going out. If you haven't got your flights
• 29:11
  already, you kind of start needing to get them now and
• 29:14
  given what's what we've been talking about for the poor
• 29:17
  German retailers, I don't know, flight prices might start to
• 29:20
  creep up. I know they are on that side as
• 29:23
  well. If you're trying to go uh east
• 29:25
  from here, uh, that's definitely more expensive.
• 29:28
  I've checked the American flights, still reasonably priced
• 29:32
  or the same prices as I would expect but maybe need to get
• 29:36
  that secured but that is money down so.
• 29:39
  Yeah. And those are the real debate
• 29:41
  there, isn't it? It's like, do you get it?
• 29:42
  And we're talking about this. Was it last week?
• 29:43
  I was talking about this. It's like there may be, I'd be
• 29:46
  paying £100 more than I would do normally for the flight at the
• 29:48
  moment. But it's like, but will I be
• 29:50
  paying £200 more if I leave it a month for, yeah, will it drop
• 29:53
  back down again to what it normally is in four months time?
• 29:56
  And it's, is that real sort of, you know, do I don't know sort
• 29:59
  of thing going on at the moment? Yeah, exactly.
• 30:02
  Yeah, it was a like I, I follow a bit of golf and I was
• 30:06
  listening to golf podcast with the British pro plays in the
• 30:11
  European Tour and the European Tour does a lot of Middle East
• 30:14
  and Asia stuff at this time of the year because of the weather.
• 30:17
  And he was playing the tournament in China.
• 30:20
  He got, he got into it kind of fairly late because he was low
• 30:23
  down on the priority list. And he did, he just, we just
• 30:28
  booked a flight out. He didn't book a return flight
• 30:31
  because he didn't know, you know, basically logistically
• 30:36
  when he was going to be going back or whatever.
• 30:38
  And then he did well, but then he was trying to get back on the
• 30:43
  the Monday he couldn't get a flight.
• 30:46
  There was like 1 seat in like priority, which he said was like
• 30:50
  13 grand or something. And he's like, I'm not, you
• 30:53
  know, he made 45 grand at the tournament, which is good,
• 30:56
  although not, you know, not amazing for, you know, for
• 30:59
  Professional Golf, but decent. But yeah, you don't want to
• 31:02
  spend on 1/3 of your earnings for that in the flight back.
• 31:07
  So he, I think he stayed in the hotel a couple more days and
• 31:10
  eventually got an economy, but still for like a grander like
• 31:13
  two or three grand, you know, sitting economy.
• 31:16
  So yeah, not easy out there. Not easy.
• 31:21
  Hello everyone, this is Anton on the Forge and you're listening
• 31:24
  to the Euro Legions podcast in the Year of the Dwarf.
• 31:28
  Of what is easy he's appreciating all the amazing
• 31:31
  costing parts we're going to have a look at right now not
• 31:33
  right rich it. Is indeed.
• 31:38
  Right, let's kick us off. Well, we got our friend old
• 31:44
  Skull. Old skull customs.
• 31:46
  He's like, he's burning into my brain because he's started in
• 31:49
  animal ones now We've had like Greek, sorry, Egyptian ones, you
• 31:53
  know, Greek stuff. As well we met him in person
• 31:56
  that legions got or anything or I.
• 31:58
  Don't know. We have actually, I don't know
• 31:59
  what his actual name is, but we start off with a couple of
• 32:02
  chicken warrior dudes. You know, me and chicken
• 32:05
  warriors. I do like a chicken warrior.
• 32:08
  So there's with jowl covers and without jowl covers on this one.
• 32:16
  Next up, we have a couple of monkeys, a couple of cheeky
• 32:20
  monkeys, perhaps you could say looking at the facial scopes.
• 32:23
  I'm here all day with a common comedy.
• 32:27
  Don't no, but don't laugh anybody.
• 32:28
  That's fine. Unbelievable.
• 32:34
  So we have one. Where the gesture is amazing.
• 32:36
  Yeah it's really good isn't it? It's really, really good and I
• 32:41
  got a couple of gestures in my collection so I might have to
• 32:45
  get another one again. Both mine are undead at the
• 32:48
  moment. It's quite nice to have a live 1
• 32:50
  as well. I.
• 32:51
  Feel I feel like the the second one along with like the little
• 32:55
  skull cap on would pair quite well as some sort of you know,
• 33:00
  unfortunate peasant with your pug or our assays.
• 33:08
  Pug head sculpt from Legions Con.
• 33:11
  Yeah, absolutely. Right, Mel.
• 33:12
  Yes, I was debating whether he'd be some sort of surf for the the
• 33:17
  lichen leaks or things. So yeah, absolutely.
• 33:19
  I'll definitely be getting that when it has to be said.
• 33:23
  Then there's a hooded snake, obviously, I'll be getting that.
• 33:26
  That was really good, yeah. Really good, yeah.
• 33:29
  So for for Nalis has he has the soft goods hood, right?
• 33:35
  Yeah. But you could maybe, you could
• 33:37
  maybe paint up an inion and get this up as an inion maybe, yeah,
• 33:43
  have another hooded snake or just any colour.
• 33:46
  Use this on your Kai pasture or your EH or one of those builds
• 33:50
  as well. It'd be.
• 33:50
  Quite cool. Yeah, That's a good idea, yeah.
• 33:52
  Yeah, yeah, or the new umm, the elf broke or thief or whatever
• 33:57
  he is in the Kickstarter. Yeah, absolutely.
• 34:00
  And then bless him, he's also done 2 pigs and I John, you done
• 34:03
  your space pigs. I'm doing a little little band
• 34:06
  of. Good for mythic pigs, I think,
• 34:08
  Yeah. I'm doing a little band of
• 34:10
  mythic pigs, so both of these are great.
• 34:12
  There's one wearing a helmet with huge, big tusks and then
• 34:15
  there's one with the fourth faceplate where the helmets got
• 34:19
  tusks coming out of the faceplate as well.
• 34:21
  It's it's like a Mad Max pig. Yeah, you had that one.
• 34:25
  You could almost get that in Cosmic as well as a kind of, you
• 34:28
  know, like a sector kind of guard or something like that.
• 34:31
  Almost like the, umm, those Gamorian dudes at the little
• 34:40
  monkey with the capsule. I suppose he could.
• 34:41
  You could put him on a Goblin build as well, couldn't you?
• 34:43
  Yeah. Absolutely.
• 34:44
  Oh, definitely. Yeah, yes.
• 34:46
  Spruce up your malignancy goblin with him.
• 34:49
  The rapid body as well. Oh yeah.
• 34:53
  Maybe remove the like those lower legs. 7 heads.
• 34:58
  Seven sad looking monkey heads. That'll be a lot of sad monkeys,
• 35:01
  wouldn't it? Yeah, maybe we need a couple of
• 35:04
  jester hats. Yeah, that would be a real weird
• 35:08
  character. Oh yeah, a lot of jester head at
• 35:11
  the front, like the king in the Rat King.
• 35:13
  And then, yeah, just the six grim miserable ones behind it.
• 35:16
  Just like, Oh my God. And maybe one of the paint
• 35:20
  schemes he could paint a big joke or smile on the on his sad
• 35:23
  face look really, really creepy. OK, next.
• 35:31
  Oh, still. Yeah, so start off on the left
• 35:34
  hand side. We've still got old school
• 35:36
  customs again. We've got a couple of Lion Kings
• 35:41
  ones. The bottom one is the line with
• 35:44
  a very cool crown, like the really raised middle path there,
• 35:47
  the first prong as it were, big mane.
• 35:50
  And then the second one, he's got his really long mane tied
• 35:52
  like a beard sort of thing underneath it.
• 35:56
  Open mouth, a bit angrier, but still with the crown on.
• 35:59
  So they're both really cool as well.
• 36:01
  And I can't, you can't go wrong with a lion sculpt.
• 36:02
  I've got so many big cat sculpts it's ridiculous, but you can't
• 36:06
  go wrong with them. Then he's moved on to his
• 36:10
  playing cards set. And it's good that we didn't
• 36:14
  record this last week, John, because I was able to add two
• 36:16
  more scopes that he's shown for that.
• 36:17
  The last two you shown for the second.
• 36:23
  So the first 3 on the left hand side there it's it's all the
• 36:26
  ones or character look. It's the somebody of spades.
• 36:30
  And again, you've got to jest the look with a quite an evil
• 36:34
  little goatee beard as well. I really like the beard with
• 36:36
  that. I think that works really well.
• 36:38
  You've got the same head sculpted with a different type
• 36:41
  of goatee and then flames coming out of the eyes.
• 36:45
  Again. They've all got like a spade.
• 36:47
  Well, they're not digestive, but they also got a spade in the
• 36:50
  forehead. And then you've got like a bald
• 36:53
  dude with pointy ears. It could be an elf with the
• 36:55
  spade there. You then got the king of
• 37:00
  something or other clubs. Thank you.
• 37:04
  My. Eyesight's terrible.
• 37:06
  I'm not even that far from the computer.
• 37:08
  How do you know it's clubs? Yeah, I see it.
• 37:10
  Yeah. Yeah, it's on the.
• 37:11
  It's on the crown. Yeah, yeah.
• 37:14
  So it's a human, like really cool, like Lord Farquhar hair,
• 37:20
  Shrek. It's got like rolled up bits at
• 37:23
  the bottom, yeah, beard and then a cool crown with clubs on it.
• 37:27
  Now that John's flagged that to me that.
• 37:28
  Was diamonds isn't it on him? Isn't it?
• 37:33
  Isn't a diamond and her isn't no club.
• 37:38
  Is that the club? The king?
• 37:39
  King in the middle with the long hair.
• 37:41
  No. Oh, sorry, sorry.
• 37:43
  I thought you're doing a Jack of diamonds.
• 37:45
  Because that to me looks like Lord Farqua.
• 37:48
  Wait, now wait. Sorry.
• 37:54
  Spoiler alert, everybody. And then you've got like.
• 37:57
  This is what he's like, ladies, you know, He's an eager, eager,
• 37:59
  eager Beaver. Always happy to please.
• 38:07
  So you've also got an undead version of the King of Clubs.
• 38:10
  So it's a skeleton, but with the beard and hair, obviously,
• 38:12
  because as we all know, skeletons have beards and hair.
• 38:15
  And then there's got a sword that's been smashed down through
• 38:18
  the top of his head and it's sticking out above the crown.
• 38:20
  So that's, that's pretty cool. I like that.
• 38:23
  You then got a couple of Queen of Hearts, nice face sculpt,
• 38:28
  little tiara sort of thing on top of the head maybe rather
• 38:30
  than a crown, long WAVY hair. And then you've got the same
• 38:34
  thing, but one side of the face is all scarred.
• 38:36
  It's like a 2 faced almost version.
• 38:38
  They're just scarring all down one side of the face of her.
• 38:40
  So that's good. And then you've got another Lord
• 38:42
  Farquhar impersonator in the Jack of Diamonds has all got
• 38:48
  left, isn't it, where he very much looks like Farquhar with
• 38:52
  that, with the hat and the hats and everything sort of thing.
• 38:54
  And then you've got another version of him where he's done
• 38:56
  something wrong and being cursed or something on this crystal.
• 38:59
  There's a crystal growing out of one of his eyes and through at
• 39:02
  the top of his head as well sort of thing, which is surprisingly
• 39:05
  compelling sculpt. But I was looking at it earlier
• 39:06
  again. I actually might get one of
• 39:08
  those that's actually really. Cool.
• 39:12
  Yeah, you could do a cool little team set with these, couldn't
• 39:15
  you? You could, absolutely.
• 39:18
  Cool idea, cool idea. Yeah, his sets are really good.
• 39:21
  I love the fact he does the sets as well.
• 39:23
  So there's a little little changes on stuff, little
• 39:26
  variations on that sort of thing.
• 39:28
  Right then now we're off to Jason Rodriguez.
• 39:31
  So he put a dwarf slash fox set out recently.
• 39:36
  Interesting combination. So you got about four different
• 39:40
  dwarf heads there on the bottom row.
• 39:44
  One with like a helmet with horns on a massive beard, one
• 39:48
  wearing a dead bear as a as a cap.
• 39:51
  Can't go wrong with that sort of look.
• 39:54
  The next one might be like a dwarf elf crossover because
• 39:56
  you've got pointy ears, but again, a big dwarf style beard
• 40:00
  there. And then the last guy I think is
• 40:03
  undead, I can't quite tell, but again, big horned helmet, big
• 40:06
  beard top left. You've got a little L4 elf dwarf
• 40:11
  there again. I mean, you could just use them
• 40:14
  as an elf in theory. There's the pointy ears, but
• 40:16
  there's definitely the. No mish vibes I think as well
• 40:20
  maybe? That's a good call, Mal.
• 40:23
  Yeah, you absolutely could. You should have on.
• 40:26
  A scale body. Yeah, I forgot the name of the
• 40:28
  character. Sorry.
• 40:29
  Curtis Boris. Thank you.
• 40:33
  I was thinking boring. It's not boring.
• 40:35
  It's not boring. 10 points for John and the favourite European
• 40:38
  league. We absolutely put him on a Boris
• 40:43
  body, yes. Then you have 3 fox foxes, so
• 40:47
  you've got 2 sculpts with an eye patch.
• 40:50
  Sure, we've had a fox and eye patch from Wolfgang Customs
• 40:52
  before, so you could have a couple of foxes with eye patch.
• 40:55
  Kids. There was a kids name with an
• 40:57
  eye patch. Yeah, one of them has got just
• 41:01
  like a normal neck piece and one's got like a braided beard.
• 41:05
  And then you've got one which looks suspiciously like a fox
• 41:07
  character from a Disney film with little Archers hats on.
• 41:11
  I. Thought we weren't doing.
• 41:13
  If it's an entire set, I'm not, but I'm not faffing around
• 41:16
  cropping out individual. I'm far too lazy for that, John.
• 41:26
  And then this was the freebie that came with it.
• 41:28
  So this is a waggon. Looks I'd like to be like a
• 41:32
  prison waggon sort of thing from mediaeval fantasy films to print
• 41:37
  on FDM printer. So obviously it's cheaper and
• 41:39
  the, you know, the material's all cheaper and that sort of
• 41:41
  thing. And then on the right hand side
• 41:43
  there is a painted up version by Greg Cook which looks really,
• 41:47
  really. Good.
• 41:48
  Like really good. Yeah.
• 41:50
  Added. Added.
• 41:51
  Like Shields and rope on. Yeah, that's very cool.
• 41:54
  Yeah. If anyone's selling something
• 41:55
  lesions con, I might well be something like that because
• 41:59
  that's great. Yeah.
• 42:01
  So the, if you don't know the difference between the resin and
• 42:04
  the FDM, the FDM is kind of spools of like different types
• 42:09
  of grades of almost like plastic.
• 42:13
  It's much more plasticky than resin and obviously much more
• 42:18
  accessible to get into because you don't have the liquid and
• 42:21
  the fumes and all that kind of stuff.
• 42:24
  Printers tend to be a bit cheaper as well.
• 42:26
  Yeah, but they're great. They're much better for this
• 42:30
  type of, you know, almost like architecture or kind of vehicles
• 42:35
  or angular stuff doing like a head sculpt is unfortunately, I
• 42:41
  mean, they might get there eventually, but it it doesn't,
• 42:45
  it doesn't work because of the the lines that it's.
• 42:48
  Yeah, and I've seen a couple of people print out head scopes in
• 42:51
  FDM just as a test that they look terrible.
• 42:53
  Yeah, yeah, yeah, It could, it could be good for an
• 42:56
  approximation if you're trying to size something.
• 42:58
  But yeah, yeah, definitely. But for this kind of stuff,
• 43:03
  great. And I mean, you've seen there,
• 43:05
  Greg has done an amazing job that just looks like, you know,
• 43:07
  he's always done a great paint job as well.
• 43:09
  Looks like wood, yeah. It's it's yes, superb.
• 43:13
  Top. Yeah, top job.
• 43:17
  And then we have another Jason Rodriguez set.
• 43:21
  It's a bit of everything really. So we have in the middle there,
• 43:25
  bottom row, in the and the middle row we have a couple of
• 43:28
  Dragons, one with big horns, one with small horns, another dragon
• 43:33
  which is a bit thinner profile at the bottom there.
• 43:37
  And then we've got a cool lizard type creature 2nd in from the
• 43:41
  right on the middle with his tongue sticking out to the side.
• 43:43
  And there's a side view room there as well.
• 43:45
  That one I really like. I can't think how I'm going to
• 43:47
  use it there so be getting it yet, but I really like that one.
• 43:52
  You then on the either side of the middle row, you've got a
• 43:54
  couple of 2.0 scopes. So you've got one that's like a
• 43:58
  female demon or she could be some sort of forest creature, I
• 44:01
  guess, with the big horns coming out and then a female elf on the
• 44:04
  right hand side top right. Again, you've got a Disney
• 44:08
  inspired carrot do snake head there with a little hat on and a
• 44:13
  feather. But then the three to the left
• 44:15
  of that are really cool, like human snake hybrid type things.
• 44:19
  So there's the scaly skin, but like a human face, but the scaly
• 44:23
  skin and the big fangs coming down.
• 44:25
  So you've got a really cool one with the hood.
• 44:27
  You've got really cool one. I really love the one with the
• 44:30
  helmet, the big, we've seen a few different ones with helmets
• 44:32
  look look like that with the the big old spikes going up sort of
• 44:36
  in really tall spikes. And then you've got just a plain
• 44:39
  head with the spiky teeth. So I see I'm mixing up a little
• 44:44
  bit. Got side views here and
• 44:45
  everything just so people can see a bit of a different angle
• 44:47
  on it. I like the sort of human lizard
• 44:51
  hybrid characters, they look really cool.
• 44:54
  Baby yeah, I definitely had a couple of these.
• 44:55
  They're, they're very cool. I've already know who I'm going
• 44:59
  to put them with because I've got another character that's
• 45:01
  sort of a bit like that. So right.
• 45:07
  And then this was the, yeah, this was the FDM thing with it.
• 45:12
  So it's an archway with a couple of gargoyles on the top stone
• 45:17
  archway, obviously with a couple of gargoyles on top.
• 45:19
  Very cool. I know Christopher.
• 45:21
  Chris Farone. It's a Farrone Farrone, isn't
• 45:25
  it? Yeah, has printed one already.
• 45:28
  Looks really cool. And again, this is exactly the
• 45:31
  sort of stuff there. As you said John, FDM is best.
• 45:36
  Yeah, absolutely. Yeah.
• 45:38
  Anthony Hasil has a great set of dwarf dial pieces now as well.
• 45:44
  FDM stuff so. Are they out?
• 45:47
  I would have clued. I didn't actually out.
• 45:48
  I know he's shown them, but I. Saw that he posted pictures of
• 45:51
  them. Next time Anthony, I'll put them
• 45:53
  in next time. Then we have a set by Blackbeard
• 45:57
  Tatch. This is one of his more unusual
• 46:01
  and slightly weird ones. I have to admit, these don't
• 46:03
  always ring a bell with me. So it's 6 heads, like demon
• 46:07
  night heads I guess. But because they're all helmeted
• 46:12
  and it's quite like straight lines, I don't know.
• 46:15
  They look OK, but not something I particularly want to get.
• 46:19
  But if you want straight faced helmeted demon type looks, these
• 46:22
  are absolutely the set for you. Yeah, they, I mean, you know,
• 46:29
  you could think of them in the style of Vargas.
• 46:32
  You know, this could be all variations on that type of a
• 46:36
  character, like more of a demon that's in armour.
• 46:42
  You know, I don't know. More away.
• 46:49
  And I put I put a painted pictures in now as well.
• 46:51
  I'm don't want to say I'm up in my game, but I'm your pay rise.
• 46:54
  Well, Calvo is is helping your game here.
• 46:57
  He is with some amazing paint jobs.
• 47:00
  So this is Moe way a friend Diego at this brilliant sculpts.
• 47:04
  The three painted versions people can see on the screen.
• 47:06
  Here we're all painted by a good friend Mark Calvo did an amazing
• 47:09
  job. So at the top row there we have
• 47:13
  Dwarf with or without a hood, with or without a pipe in his
• 47:16
  mouth and the incredible paint job the mark did where it looks
• 47:19
  like the pipes glowing. You know the pipe glow is on his
• 47:22
  face. He.
• 47:23
  Sold a batch of these already. I mean I think he 20 or more.
• 47:27
  Yeah, he actually wrote a post up earlier that he still had
• 47:30
  half a dozen or so left. But if you're listening to this,
• 47:33
  Yeah, if you're listening to this.
• 47:35
  Oh, OK. On the Friday, they may have
• 47:36
  gone already, but I mean, we're recording now on Wednesday.
• 47:39
  They still have some of those left.
• 47:41
  Then we are down the right hand side there.
• 47:44
  We've got a Bunny, very aggro looking Bunny.
• 47:48
  So there's four with the ears or three, three with the ears
• 47:50
  straight up, and then two samurai inspired Bunny ears with
• 47:56
  a wrap around the ears themselves.
• 47:58
  Just saying. Horsemen, you could do a similar
• 48:00
  thing potentially with antlers on Silo.
• 48:02
  Just say just throw it in there. This is a long running podcast
• 48:08
  thing. I've had this.
• 48:09
  It is since nearly the starter when I first.
• 48:14
  And then the left hand side, then you've got a human, more of
• 48:17
  a cosmic human, I think. I mean, you could do it in
• 48:19
  mythics or cosmic, just a normal bald human face.
• 48:22
  Then there's one with an eye patch and then there's a couple
• 48:24
  with the face mask on as well. So again, like a Mad Max type
• 48:27
  vibes think I'm getting from those.
• 48:29
  And you can do those of cosmic easy.
• 48:30
  And then you've got four different tucans, closed mouth,
• 48:33
  open mouth or can fit the head Crest.
• 48:37
  Very good mouth. Yeah, so again, if you want a
• 48:45
  new bird warrior to add to your crew, then yeah, this is a great
• 48:48
  sculpt to go for. Yeah and maybe if we get more
• 48:54
  bird parts this year, you know maybe a certain ether on might
• 48:57
  get released or other bird type character, you never know.
• 49:02
  Yeah, I mean, Tot is already coming in the April sale.
• 49:07
  He has bird stuff like feet and. Mouth.
• 49:11
  You brush your mouth, Sir. Bird stuff about him is very
• 49:14
  cool. Just yeah, not my favourite
• 49:17
  vigour. And then this is another
• 49:21
  motorway set. So we have.
• 49:24
  It's a bald head. It is bald head.
• 49:26
  Another bald human. Yeah, with or without long
• 49:31
  wrapped up beard. Cool sculpt, though.
• 49:33
  Then you've got the same sculpt, I think, but with a helmet on,
• 49:37
  and Mark's painted I think one of these and put it up.
• 49:40
  I'm sure I didn't have it there. Actually, is that the one you've
• 49:42
  painted? Yeah.
• 49:43
  Yeah, cool. It's like an ice scar and
• 49:45
  everything. It's really cool.
• 49:46
  And he's painted, it's like a leather helmet, Yes.
• 49:49
  Which is a bit different from mythics as Nick's obviously got
• 49:51
  all the armour stuff on the right hand side.
• 49:53
  They got four different types of orcs, or with like absolutely
• 49:58
  enormous protruding jaws and tusks at the bottom there.
• 50:04
  The left hand side you have 4 different axolotl scopes and
• 50:08
  there's a fabulous painted one here that is used on a.
• 50:11
  Gloria And it worked really well, doesn't it, with that
• 50:14
  Elloria? Yeah.
• 50:15
  What Mark, it's done there, I mean.
• 50:16
  Yeah, yeah, really. Well, I've had a couple of
• 50:20
  axolotls before and I got rid of the both of them because it
• 50:22
  didn't quite work, but I might. What is an axolotl to for a
• 50:26
  dummy like me? Oh, it's, it's an, it's a
• 50:29
  salamander type thing, basically.
• 50:31
  Amphibian. So yeah, sort of in the.
• 50:34
  It never. They exist in.
• 50:35
  They exist in the real world. They do indeed.
• 50:37
  They never grow past the larval stage.
• 50:39
  People keep this very popular pet, right?
• 50:41
  Yeah. Get yourself a fish tank.
• 50:43
  Get yourself an axolotl. My child wants to have you.
• 50:45
  Ever had one? No, despite the beggings of the
• 50:48
  child is like Nope, Nope. Do they do anything to the fish
• 50:52
  or? Oh yeah, they'd eat the fish.
• 50:54
  You put them in with fish. OK, yeah, you'd have to get rid
• 50:57
  of the fish. Yeah, yeah, they're a species.
• 50:59
  Or get a separate tank. Yeah, yeah, basically.
• 51:03
  And then and again, This is why I think maybe he's in my head.
• 51:07
  There's more chicken dudes, think Diego's in my head, Old
• 51:10
  Skull custom, everybody's in my head so.
• 51:15
  We've got a. Yeah, we've got a really cool
• 51:17
  cockrel here with like the raised Mohican type look and the
• 51:20
  big old chicken jowls hanging down.
• 51:23
  I'll be getting one of those from Mark painted up at some
• 51:25
  point this year. And then we've got the same
• 51:28
  sculpts, but wearing like a hat, like, almost like a cowboy hat.
• 51:31
  But it's not quite that with one side tipped up, you know, you
• 51:36
  could be like a rogue. You could use hit bat on a
• 51:38
  kibachi body, for instance. Yeah.
• 51:40
  You're not worried about the feet.
• 51:41
  And then you've got a robe. Yeah.
• 51:44
  Chicken Highwayman or something like that.
• 51:46
  I quite like the one where he said, gritting and baring his
• 51:49
  teeth. That's really cool sculpt.
• 51:55
  Yeah, really fun. OK, next one.
• 52:02
  Yep. Oh, we've got to talk about
• 52:06
  these dudes now. We have a bunch of dude heads.
• 52:10
  Yeah, there's a shock. So this is a combination of work
• 52:13
  from GUI on our friend owned acts on the the socials and our
• 52:21
  friend Gianluca has sculpted these for him.
• 52:23
  John Lucas a great sculptor. He did all our exclusives last
• 52:27
  year and has already been 6 new dog exclusives, whereas this
• 52:31
  year watch out for painted versions of those being shown at
• 52:35
  some point in the future. So these are I think most of the
• 52:39
  Bay if not all are based on Game of Thrones characters or the way
• 52:42
  they're described in the books. We is a huge game of you know,
• 52:46
  proper addict. So you have starting from the
• 52:50
  left, you have a human with a beard I think.
• 52:54
  Is that meant to be gwee? Looks a bit like we.
• 52:57
  Yeah, yeah, that's how Mark has painted him up.
• 53:00
  He did a painted version of this one.
• 53:02
  Then you have a smiley human with no beard, which is
• 53:05
  obviously disgrace in mythos and just like a normal haircut.
• 53:09
  He has he has double though I know he can't see that.
• 53:13
  With my terrible eyes now and the lighting in here is awful.
• 53:16
  Then you've got another human again.
• 53:18
  Really good human face sculpts. Normal haircut you have a head
• 53:23
  that could easily be used as samurai and with I agree, but
• 53:28
  yeah, ponytail and a couple of front bits coming down sort of
• 53:31
  thing in a cool beard. You know, I think Tom Cruise in
• 53:33
  the last. Samurai.
• 53:35
  Yeah, yeah. And then you have a really cool
• 53:38
  one, actually, with a huge pair of mutton chops, which is always
• 53:41
  a good thing. Long WAVY hair, massive mutton
• 53:44
  chops on the side. Human again.
• 53:47
  I feel like you could use that one as a sort of Victorian
• 53:51
  gentleman, so maybe as a mile, not a Marley your own version
• 53:57
  of. Scrooge, just a Scrooge that you
• 54:00
  really could, yes. Good formal, yeah, definitely.
• 54:02
  And then the painted versions people can see here, if they're
• 54:04
  looking at the screen, is obviously by mark.
• 54:06
  And these are available shop cover, costume creations, Jaeger
• 54:14
  ones and the old Skull ones. Various different shops will
• 54:19
  have those. These are cool.
• 54:22
  Yeah, we've now got a couple of couple from a friend, Josh
• 54:25
  Brown. I spent quite a bit of money at
• 54:27
  Josh's table at Legion's Cons and great sculpts and some
• 54:30
  really unusual sculpts. So we've got a couple of
• 54:35
  gladiator. I mean, it could be 80s worth it
• 54:37
  could be Barbarians, I guess, if you wanted to know these.
• 54:40
  Yeah, but it's first on the left.
• 54:42
  There is a full face mask with four horns coming out the side
• 54:46
  and then really a really cool long ponytail down the back.
• 54:51
  So if people like posing stuff in better positions than me, not
• 54:54
  that John never goes on about that, then you'll be able to see
• 54:56
  the hair at the back and everything like that.
• 55:00
  And then we have on the right we have a Mercurian style helmet.
• 55:04
  So very much the Mercurian look again with a long braided,
• 55:08
  either a ponytail or it's the plume just extended down his
• 55:12
  back. And the painted ones, I think
• 55:15
  by, oh, I'm going to get the name wrong.
• 55:18
  It's like, hey, swear. Oh, hey, Jarrow on the socials
• 55:23
  now. Oh yeah, yeah.
• 55:24
  Painting for Josh's stuff. Yeah.
• 55:27
  Two very cool sculptor. There's some more stuff from
• 55:32
  Josh. So we have like cyberonies
• 55:35
  basically. So it's very much got that.
• 55:37
  Yeah. They're good, aren't they?
• 55:38
  Very much got the sort of Eastern theme, but with Cyborg
• 55:41
  implants and that sort of stuff on them.
• 55:43
  You've got one with dreads as well back in it pulled back, and
• 55:46
  then one wearing like a an oriental round hat and a couple
• 55:51
  of horn spikes, whatever coming out on top of it.
• 55:55
  They're very cool with some very different for you your cosmics.
• 55:59
  And then on the right hand side there we have a really cool
• 56:02
  skull shield. So it's your normal shield
• 56:04
  shape, but with a huge skull in the middle and smaller skulls
• 56:07
  around it, and a very cool big sword as well.
• 56:11
  The skull on the the butt of the handle by the looks of it.
• 56:16
  Oh yeah, yeah. Put these in there, but I can't
• 56:19
  actually see what I've put in because apparently.
• 56:22
  We need to get you a projector so you can project them past.
• 56:24
  We do just onto the wall. I should do this wearing the
• 56:27
  painting magnifying glass. Then I could see everything on
• 56:32
  the screen so. More we let's say.
• 56:36
  Thank you, Mel. Yeah, yeah.
• 56:39
  This would be P This would be peak old man podcasting.
• 56:45
  This week. Do you want to see the peak old
• 56:48
  man podcasting? Come to the Euro Legions
• 56:51
  podcast. We'll squint.
• 56:53
  Yeah. I will demonstrate.
• 56:59
  Mine are just there as I'm not going to do it, I'm not going to
• 57:02
  do it. Yes and Laura exclusive so head
• 57:07
  to Josh's and then our old friend Anthony Velez is back so
• 57:11
  noble bear customers have been quiet for a long while now, but
• 57:15
  he's back with lots of other stuff that you've seen or other
• 57:19
  people have designed and this I think we've got some exclusive
• 57:21
  stuff here. So first one on the left there
• 57:24
  you've got an extremely angry looking bear wearing a helmet
• 57:27
  love this sculpt. This is really cool.
• 57:30
  Like, really cool. It's like a can it use the
• 57:33
  phrase which like a barbarian, but you could easily have it as
• 57:36
  a barbarian. Yeah.
• 57:40
  Again, Mal. Yeah.
• 57:41
  Thank you. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 57:42
  Brilliant. Then underneath that, we have a
• 57:45
  sculpt of Anthony himself. I think it's labelled the Stoner
• 57:49
  or something like that is the name of the sculpt.
• 57:51
  He looks very happy. It's fair to say he's had a good
• 57:53
  time. In the middle a you've got a
• 57:56
  Mace with a bare skull on the top of it.
• 58:00
  Probably a baby bear, assuming looking at signs.
• 58:02
  They like to add to my Pern. It could have just been a Bar
• 58:04
  Bear Marian as well, which might have been.
• 58:10
  John, can you mute him? He can mute himself.
• 58:16
  And then on the right hand side we've got a really cool
• 58:19
  barbarian head sculpt. And I hate to say it, but the
• 58:21
  guy's, he's unhappy, he's yelling, he's got a really cool
• 58:24
  helmet on with big horns, a skull in the middle of it, long
• 58:28
  braided hair. It's it's a really cool sculpt.
• 58:31
  And then there's an axe and shield set.
• 58:33
  So it's, it's like a round shield, but it's clearly been
• 58:36
  broken. There's like been gouges out
• 58:37
  with the middle of it and part of the Shields missing.
• 58:39
  Looks like a bear has been clawing at it.
• 58:41
  Yeah, I think that's. There you go.
• 58:45
  So he's been fighting the dude on the left.
• 58:46
  Yeah. So that's perfect.
• 58:48
  Or or both. Yeah, and it comes with a hand
• 58:54
  axe, really good looking hand axe as well, so.
• 58:56
  This week in the middle. I have painted this before.
• 59:00
  Oh, have you? Or maybe it's an older one then
• 59:01
  that I just haven't. Shared before I'm pretty sure
• 59:04
  I've I've painted something that looked almost exactly like that
• 59:06
  and I thought I even got it from Anthony.
• 59:08
  I'm not sure. It probably isn't, although
• 59:09
  maybe it's one he's only had legions com maybe or something
• 59:11
  that. Maybe something like?
• 59:12
  I didn't recognise it so I popped it up.
• 59:14
  There's there's always a risk when someone's site's been down
• 59:16
  for a while. Yeah.
• 59:17
  No, no, you know, it's available.
• 59:19
  That's that's another part of the news, isn't it?
• 59:22
  Yeah, yeah, it's great decision, absolutely.
• 59:28
  Then we've got a couple of heads here from Big Head Studios
• 59:30
  Customs. They've got an eBay shop,
• 59:34
  they're Allegiance Con every year, Aaron and the other guy
• 59:36
  whose name I can never remember, sorry.
• 59:38
  Two really nice guys. Aaron will often paint stuff up
• 59:40
  for you that you buy at his table.
• 59:42
  He'll just sit there and paint it up for you for collection
• 59:45
  later. And these are Scotland by Old
• 59:47
  School Customs who we showed earlier on today.
• 59:50
  So you have, I think it's meant to be Yeti, but it could be a
• 59:55
  gorilla, a push as well sort of thing.
• 59:57
  It's got that big hairy face, looking quite angry, lots of big
• 1:00:01
  teeth. That's it.
• 1:00:02
  I immediately wanted troll scale and painted to match the ice
• 1:00:05
  troll. Oh, that would work really well.
• 1:00:08
  Yeah, yeah, we can always contact them.
• 1:00:11
  They never know, they might be able to blow one up for you.
• 1:00:14
  I might get them to paint it as well with the time.
• 1:00:16
  No, I've got so much stuff I haven't painted at this.
• 1:00:19
  Yeah, well, Aaron, I'm sure Aaron will do it.
• 1:00:21
  No problem. And then on the right hand side
• 1:00:24
  there you've got, I think it's an elf.
• 1:00:26
  I can't quite tell from the ears.
• 1:00:27
  I think they are pointy ears. Female elf brace.
• 1:00:31
  Yeah. Braided, long hair.
• 1:00:32
  Really nice facial sculpt. Really nice sculpt.
• 1:00:38
  Yeah, pretty cool. I think they also bend actually
• 1:00:41
  going off like off topic of Frank and Sons in LA as well.
• 1:00:44
  So if you're ever in that neck of the woods, I'm sure they've
• 1:00:46
  got a stall there. We were going to before we had
• 1:00:48
  to cancel our California trip a few years ago sort of thing.
• 1:00:50
  Well, that was the itinerary fell.
• 1:00:53
  So I had about 6 hour window and it's just like, Oh my God, I'm
• 1:00:56
  going to go crazy here. But yeah, I'd love to go there
• 1:00:58
  from ever in LA. Yeah, definitely.
• 1:01:01
  We have Jay's armoury. I wonder why you picked this
• 1:01:04
  one, Rich I. Have no idea.
• 1:01:11
  If you're looking from onlineits1percase.com, it's not
• 1:01:15
  Jay's armoury strangely, but has some really cool unique sculpts
• 1:01:18
  again. So we have like a demon.
• 1:01:21
  I mean, it could be a rat, it could be a go, it could be
• 1:01:23
  anything really on the left hand side there shaved.
• 1:01:26
  Warlock. Yeah.
• 1:01:28
  How's that look, doesn't it? Yeah, definitely.
• 1:01:30
  And he's got it on a Rat King body here.
• 1:01:31
  Yeah, in the picture. So it definitely works for that.
• 1:01:34
  But I think you can easily put it on a Jersey Devil as well and
• 1:01:37
  have a really cool looking. Absolutely.
• 1:01:41
  Then you have a an angry rat slash gave and head there in the
• 1:01:44
  middle and then, and you don't often see this, but they've done
• 1:01:48
  3 similar but slightly different torsos again for, you know, for
• 1:01:53
  different scales. You've got the ogre one which is
• 1:01:55
  huge and hulking. You've got 1.01 and then a
• 1:01:58
  thinner 2.0 scale one as well. So that's quite nice to see.
• 1:02:01
  So you can have your rat warriors at any sort of scale
• 1:02:05
  you want, really. Escape and Ogre would be a great
• 1:02:08
  one. Actually, now that I'm talking
• 1:02:09
  about it more, I'm thinking, oh damn it, yeah, there were such
• 1:02:12
  good characters in Warhammer. Need another agarian?
• 1:02:20
  Yeah. Yeah, right.
• 1:02:24
  Then. Now we have Cory Schwartz and
• 1:02:26
  Hoffer who's got a shop. It's not, it's closed at the
• 1:02:29
  moment, but it is a shop that's there called Highly Posable,
• 1:02:32
  which is the podcast name and that's a store.
• 1:02:34
  He has a lesions con. You guys know Corey?
• 1:02:36
  I bought so much stuff off Corey.
• 1:02:37
  He's a really good painter, some really unique scopes and that
• 1:02:40
  sort of thing. So he's got a few different ones
• 1:02:42
  here. So the two on the top left
• 1:02:45
  there, you've got a couple of that could be elves, that could
• 1:02:48
  be demons, could be anything really, but they've got maniacal
• 1:02:50
  grins or two of them. Long hair one's got like a bone
• 1:02:54
  cap on, that one's got like a fungi type cap on, which
• 1:02:56
  obviously shouted out to me as soon as I saw that.
• 1:03:00
  So I've got one of those coming already.
• 1:03:03
  But really cool sculptures are very different to stuff I've
• 1:03:06
  ever seen. The people, particularly
• 1:03:08
  Malaikal grins underneath that you've got like a fawn type of
• 1:03:13
  character. I can imagine that sort of
• 1:03:15
  looking. Again, that's horror film with
• 1:03:17
  the big horns coming back, but the nose is so like flat, almost
• 1:03:21
  looks like it's not there really like that.
• 1:03:24
  Next to that, there's a couple of really cool human faces.
• 1:03:28
  They're not cartoonish in style, but it's got that sort of look
• 1:03:32
  to it. They're quite long, but like 1's
• 1:03:34
  screaming one's like looking terrified, eyes closed, eyes
• 1:03:38
  open. They've got a couple of those on
• 1:03:39
  the way to next to that bottom right.
• 1:03:43
  You've got a really weird one which he showed off on a cosmic
• 1:03:46
  body. And I think cosmic body would
• 1:03:47
  work. Yeah.
• 1:03:48
  So it's, it's a toad with a frog popping out of its mouth.
• 1:03:52
  So it's a, you know, like a human sized toad.
• 1:03:55
  And it's obviously eaten or is symbiotic with a normal sized
• 1:03:59
  frog. So the frog and its head and its
• 1:04:01
  legs are sticking out of the mouth.
• 1:04:03
  Really, really cool sculpt. I have no idea what I'd do with
• 1:04:05
  it, but it's a very cool sculpt. Yeah.
• 1:04:08
  And this is the sort of stuff he has on his site.
• 1:04:10
  He'll have some more generic stuff as well, but just weird
• 1:04:12
  and wonderful stuff. I'm not sure if he does a sculpt
• 1:04:14
  himself or he gets other people to do the sculpting, but very
• 1:04:17
  cool. Then you've got feet and headset
• 1:04:22
  to turn escape back into a gryphon, which works really
• 1:04:26
  well. So the front feet, the sort of
• 1:04:28
  the lower part of the leg, and the feet, the back feet are just
• 1:04:32
  the feet themselves and then a gryphon head to put on it.
• 1:04:35
  You can make a proper cool cosmic creature using that
• 1:04:39
  assessor. What do you reckon?
• 1:04:40
  Well. Yeah, I think that looks really
• 1:04:42
  cool. I think you could probably, if
• 1:04:45
  you're willing to have a go repaint, make it more mythic as
• 1:04:47
  well as a result. Yeah, very cool.
• 1:04:52
  So. Mythic with the with the
• 1:04:53
  repaint, yeah. And the top right there, he did
• 1:04:57
  some to quote him on his post. I couldn't sleep tonight, so
• 1:05:01
  I've created a pair of bird feet for mythic legions like, well,
• 1:05:05
  there you go. As as you do.
• 1:05:06
  So there's bird feet that you can put on your own garden
• 1:05:10
  zeros. I'm not.
• 1:05:13
  Yeah. They look really good.
• 1:05:14
  Yeah. Yeah.
• 1:05:15
  And the beak on that is not the mow way Pelican it Pelican
• 1:05:19
  toucan. It's got like Cyborg input
• 1:05:24
  things features on this as well, so that's cool.
• 1:05:27
  I corrected myself, John. At least I didn't just bang on
• 1:05:29
  about a dog for for hours. Trying to get your revenge for
• 1:05:34
  that one. Yes, it's really cool stuff.
• 1:05:39
  I say stores closed at the moment but hopefully it'll be
• 1:05:41
  open again soon. Corey's always got like painted
• 1:05:43
  sails on. And you're welcome, Corey.
• 1:05:45
  That was the slide he hadn't finished so.
• 1:05:47
  Yes. I love Jeremy Wilson's sculpts
• 1:05:51
  and yeah, to own that. I don't own any, but I really
• 1:05:54
  need to own some. The marvellous he's he's sort of
• 1:05:57
  doing it for quite some time, but.
• 1:06:00
  I use ones that Noah has had, yeah.
• 1:06:03
  Yeah, a few of them, yeah. Yeah.
• 1:06:06
  But yeah, so here you've got like a dreadlocked and braided
• 1:06:11
  beard warrior who just looks really mean.
• 1:06:14
  You would not want to mess with this guy in the battlefield.
• 1:06:16
  And the one here has been painted up with, like, face
• 1:06:19
  paint, wall paint on and that sort of thing as well.
• 1:06:21
  It's a very good sculpt. And then the one on the right.
• 1:06:26
  Really cool. Really good on here, like a
• 1:06:28
  cyclops but with horns, small horns coming out of the face and
• 1:06:33
  coming out of the ears and this sort of thing and hair in the
• 1:06:35
  middle. Again, worked really well as a
• 1:06:36
  cosmic head or a mythic head. Yeah, exactly.
• 1:06:41
  I painted it. Yeah, I painted it beautifully,
• 1:06:43
  isn't it? Yeah.
• 1:06:43
  Really good. So smooth.
• 1:06:46
  Yeah. Detail and.
• 1:06:49
  Speaking of returns, Steph has got a new thing out, so it's,
• 1:06:55
  I'm going to say a cat. I mean, it could work as a
• 1:06:57
  different type of creature as well.
• 1:07:00
  But yeah, big ears, quite a stern looking face.
• 1:07:04
  You've got one with a sort of partially closed eye.
• 1:07:07
  It could be a scar dye. And then one with both eyes.
• 1:07:11
  Stitches. Yeah, almost stitches.
• 1:07:14
  Scars from stitches or whatever. Yeah, and he's got it on a as a
• 1:07:18
  base figure again, works really well in that sort of Eastern
• 1:07:21
  vibe. See, a really cool sculpt.
• 1:07:23
  Yeah, nice one, right then. Now we've got Action Figure
• 1:07:28
  Fusion. You don't see these as much
• 1:07:31
  anymore. These pictures are from
• 1:07:32
  Dusseldorne Studios. They always stock his stuff and
• 1:07:35
  I think Mark Field in the UK for any UK buyers tends to stock his
• 1:07:40
  stuff as well. So we have Wolf Queen up first.
• 1:07:45
  So the picture on the left shows the full kit and the size of the
• 1:07:47
  wolf. You can get like a 3D printed
• 1:07:49
  wolf to go as a companion with her.
• 1:07:55
  The wolf. It's a good.
• 1:07:56
  Just about, but the rest of it. Yeah.
• 1:07:59
  And then you've got two different heads.
• 1:08:01
  Like actually if you get Fusion always there's, you always have
• 1:08:03
  at least two. Sometimes it's like 4 different
• 1:08:05
  heads, so you go on with the hair pulled back into a ponytail
• 1:08:08
  but draped over the top of the head as well.
• 1:08:10
  There's probably a technical term for that.
• 1:08:12
  Another one, she's wearing the wolf pelt, the hat.
• 1:08:17
  Yeah. And then you've got a skirt
• 1:08:19
  piece that goes with it. You've got a pauldron set with
• 1:08:21
  wolf claws on, you've got the feet and shins.
• 1:08:24
  He always has full sets when he does the sort of stuff and then
• 1:08:27
  bare midriff armoured torso look to go there as well.
• 1:08:35
  Then we have the shield maiden by him again.
• 1:08:38
  Again. So again.
• 1:08:41
  As I know. Also very cool.
• 1:08:42
  Yeah. Yeah, Sorry, Mel.
• 1:08:43
  Yeah. So you've got helmeted head with
• 1:08:48
  face Shields and big horns coming up.
• 1:08:50
  I really like that one. And then quite a menacing
• 1:08:52
  looking female head next to it with a sort of ponytail type
• 1:08:57
  look. Again, not ponytail, what they
• 1:08:59
  called pigtail, except not pigtails, but that sort of look.
• 1:09:04
  Yeah. Grades, Yeah again, comes with a
• 1:09:07
  torso, beats shins paw runs, the whole works.
• 1:09:13
  And then a cool looking shield and double bladed axe as well.
• 1:09:17
  Seeing that again Horsemen please remake Freya with a 1.0
• 1:09:25
  body make it should look awesome.
• 1:09:28
  Freya dead holes. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 1:09:33
  Valkyrie's a bigger girls should be.
• 1:09:37
  Yeah, that would be cool to get a, to get a more just say kind
• 1:09:44
  of armoured and, you know, clothed big female.
• 1:09:48
  So it'd be good. I think we'll see more 1.0
• 1:09:51
  females when we go going forward now because obviously Borg has
• 1:09:54
  been a success. Nevada has been a success.
• 1:09:57
  Incredible looking figure actually as well, yeah.
• 1:10:01
  And then we've here, we've got an undead elf, so a couple of
• 1:10:04
  different head sculpts. So I think it's meant to be a
• 1:10:06
  wood elf looking at that. So one, you've got a helmeted
• 1:10:11
  face, you can't see the eyes. It's just a sort of metal face
• 1:10:14
  plate with almost like branches coming off the back of it.
• 1:10:19
  And then you've got a zombie elf head.
• 1:10:20
  That rotting elf head with a broken crown.
• 1:10:24
  Is it meant to be zombie or is it meant to be maybe sort of be
• 1:10:27
  like wood to texture on his face but.
• 1:10:30
  I was going because it's called Rotwood, that maybe it was
• 1:10:33
  meant. Oh, yes, sorry, yeah, it.
• 1:10:34
  Could it could. No, it could.
• 1:10:36
  It could be similar as well, yeah.
• 1:10:40
  Really cool torso, like a jewel in the middle of it sort of
• 1:10:43
  thing. And then decorative armour
• 1:10:44
  around that. Pauldrons again, sort of the
• 1:10:47
  branch sort of effect on that. A really cool shield.
• 1:10:51
  It's like a leaf shaped shield with like tendrils or branches
• 1:10:57
  coming out of the side of that. And then again you've got the
• 1:11:00
  feet, the shins, the braces, and then a very cool elf sword.
• 1:11:05
  And it's got that sort of elf sword end to it, hasn't it,
• 1:11:08
  where it just turns up at the end?
• 1:11:10
  I. Love that sword.
• 1:11:11
  That's fantastic. Yeah.
• 1:11:13
  Very cool set and then you've got the Elf King set by him as
• 1:11:21
  well. This is where he goes crazy.
• 1:11:23
  So he's got four different heads in this set.
• 1:11:26
  So the one on the far right, let's start with that.
• 1:11:29
  That gives me Warhammer High Elf vibes so I'll be getting one.
• 1:11:34
  I'm shoving on a a Silver Knight 2 legion build and that will be
• 1:11:39
  at High Elf. Pulled the face because, as you
• 1:11:42
  say, yeah, very more hammer. High elves.
• 1:11:44
  Yeah. Never a fan of them.
• 1:11:45
  I know you were but. Yeah, I always prefer the dark
• 1:11:48
  elves, but the high elves as well.
• 1:11:50
  So yeah. Then you've got helmet.
• 1:11:54
  Sorry, an unhelmeted headways. When a crown again, the elf
• 1:11:58
  thing like a black branches sort of crown.
• 1:12:03
  Then you've got the same bigger, but when I can more normal.
• 1:12:06
  What you think of an elf crown sort of thing, quite small leaf
• 1:12:10
  shape, that sort of thing. And then you've got another
• 1:12:12
  helmeted one, but with smaller wing pieces on the side rather
• 1:12:16
  than the huge ones on the first one.
• 1:12:19
  Again, a very ornate torso, really cool long, quite a long
• 1:12:24
  shield, long thinner shield with a phoenix or some sort of bird
• 1:12:28
  with the wings going out to past the edge of the shield, which is
• 1:12:30
  really good. And then a very cool looking
• 1:12:32
  sword again, again with the wings at the side.
• 1:12:35
  Again, like Mao, I think I like the the swords where it's not
• 1:12:38
  just, you know, a straight bit of metal, there's there's curves
• 1:12:42
  to it or there's jagged bits to it and that sort of thing.
• 1:12:45
  So. Yeah, that is.
• 1:12:45
  A really good set. I think I need to just buy a
• 1:12:49
  bunch of weapons from somewhere. I I never.
• 1:12:53
  Think to vary up your weapons. There's so many.
• 1:12:55
  Good ones out there. Bustle Dawn Studios is probably
• 1:12:58
  a good place their their prices are really reasonable so good
• 1:13:01
  ones to go with. Have a lick, a lick, a look you.
• 1:13:05
  Can have a licky. I mean, they might not
• 1:13:06
  appreciate you licking them. Yeah.
• 1:13:10
  Yeah, that's a terrible idea. Don't do that.
• 1:13:11
  Well, and then we've got Rocket Fist customs, so again,
• 1:13:15
  exclusives here. So the one on the left is human.
• 1:13:21
  What? Well, it could be human.
• 1:13:22
  It could be anything really. I guess.
• 1:13:24
  Warrior with a beard and then a skull mask over the top of it.
• 1:13:28
  It's got a metal rivet in the middle of the skull as well, so
• 1:13:30
  that you could probably paint that quite brightly and use that
• 1:13:33
  for cosmic if you wanted to quite easily.
• 1:13:36
  Yeah, or Mythic as well. That's designed by Jason
• 1:13:39
  Rodriguez. And then on the right hand side
• 1:13:41
  they got this amazing rat head. Like amazing rat.
• 1:13:45
  So much character. Yeah, it's got like, you know,
• 1:13:47
  the ears are sticking right up on them.
• 1:13:49
  Has got an earring in it the mouths open and he's obviously
• 1:13:52
  like really angry sort of thing and that was designed in
• 1:13:56
  conjunction with Alejandro so Skelisoria on the socials
• 1:14:00
  fabulous paint jobs he does and he painted this one here to go
• 1:14:03
  with the rat king and old school costumes again.
• 1:14:06
  So yeah really great sculpt to give you know something a bit
• 1:14:09
  different to you to escape and berserker they have a new person
• 1:14:16
  more customs. I've not heard of them before
• 1:14:19
  and they don't show a lot of stuff, but they do show a few
• 1:14:22
  bits so. It's not the guy that was doing
• 1:14:24
  the little droids. Was it John Moore who was?
• 1:14:32
  I no, the little droids were the big the by the big tall fellow,
• 1:14:36
  weren't they? Yeah.
• 1:14:37
  Yeah, Eric. Yeah, John Moore.
• 1:14:40
  That's that was his name though, yeah.
• 1:14:42
  Yeah, I think John was wondering if it's him, but I don't think
• 1:14:46
  it is him because I've not seen these at all.
• 1:14:50
  I think. I don't know why that means OK.
• 1:14:52
  Anyway, it might be. Wrong.
• 1:14:53
  It may it may or may not be for listeners yeah.
• 1:14:56
  So on the left there you've got like a sea goblin type looking
• 1:15:00
  thing. It's it's very cool.
• 1:15:02
  You've got thin type ears coming out scaly face, but then a beard
• 1:15:07
  that goes with it. You could easily use this as
• 1:15:09
  some sort of Aqua goblin or something like that.
• 1:15:11
  I think the one in the middle is based on AI think a Slavic
• 1:15:16
  tradition. I think the, the post said.
• 1:15:19
  So it's like a like a winter king sort of a winter druid sort
• 1:15:22
  of vibe to it. So really, really long beard,
• 1:15:25
  haunted face, you know, gaunt face sort of thing.
• 1:15:28
  And then like icicle spikes coming out of the head almost
• 1:15:32
  like a crown. Sorry to interrupt, it's more
• 1:15:35
  more customs is Luke Moore. OK.
• 1:15:39
  So yeah, is UK based. Is it Luke?
• 1:15:43
  I have no idea. Is it just that there's multiple
• 1:15:46
  Luke Moores? Anyway, yes, and then on the far
• 1:15:52
  right there you've got an anglerfish with an absurdly
• 1:15:55
  large, large ball on the end of his dangler.
• 1:15:59
  I think, I think the most important thing is how do you,
• 1:16:03
  how does 1 you know, order these?
• 1:16:06
  Is there is there a website or? I didn't go that into that much
• 1:16:10
  detail, but he's been posting on the cabal.
• 1:16:12
  It's obviously it looks like he's got an eBay shop called
• 1:16:15
  More Custom 775 and he's in dollars so he's AUS based.
• 1:16:19
  Thank you, Ma. Thank you my my helpful
• 1:16:22
  assistant Mal. Thank you very much.
• 1:16:23
  I was guessing about about the first one, that blue fishy
• 1:16:26
  character. I thought that could look really
• 1:16:27
  cool. A dwarf body.
• 1:16:31
  Yeah, yeah. That sort of squat look.
• 1:16:33
  Absolutely. Yeah, definitely.
• 1:16:35
  And then I think. We're on the last slide now, so
• 1:16:37
  this is the last one. Rogue printing machine again,
• 1:16:42
  he's got a Patreon. She's got an eBay shop as well.
• 1:16:45
  But that, you know, you can find the print.
• 1:16:48
  One of them's the one on the left is things like undead
• 1:16:53
  shaman sort of type. I think it's meant to be.
• 1:16:56
  So there's antlers coming out the side of the head or it could
• 1:16:59
  be on the, you know like a skin leather type helmet sort of
• 1:17:05
  thing. The face is all withered and
• 1:17:08
  grim looking and then there's a big beard knotted at the bottom
• 1:17:11
  with a goal connecting one of the parts.
• 1:17:15
  Then you've got these are all sculpted by black beard hatch as
• 1:17:19
  well. I think they're all by him.
• 1:17:21
  You've then got a couple of angry humans with stickier pear,
• 1:17:26
  3 pointed beards and shouting or sticking his tongue out or
• 1:17:29
  glaring. I think there's four different
• 1:17:32
  versions. I've only put two in here, but I
• 1:17:33
  think there's four different versions of that.
• 1:17:37
  And then you have three really cool and very unusual helmeted
• 1:17:42
  heads on the right there. So one of them looks a bit like
• 1:17:45
  the Destroyer from 4:00. It's got that sort of yes.
• 1:17:51
  You can't see an eye hole or anything, that's just lines so.
• 1:17:53
  Does he see? Yeah.
• 1:17:55
  You can have as a demon knight or something like that.
• 1:17:56
  I think I'd probably want to use it as you've then got a couple
• 1:18:00
  of more sort of Templar style ones, so relatively ornate
• 1:18:05
  helmet. Again, I think you could
• 1:18:06
  probably use this in cosmics. Actually looking at the, the,
• 1:18:09
  the patterning on the bottom of the of the helmets themselves
• 1:18:12
  look almost like thin cosmic E type metal.
• 1:18:17
  I haven't described that very well, but that sort of look,
• 1:18:19
  there's one where you just have the, there's no eyes.
• 1:18:22
  There's just like a blank a bit behind their slip behind it.
• 1:18:26
  I think they do have one with eyes as well in that.
• 1:18:29
  And then on the right is slightly different.
• 1:18:31
  So again, you've got the eyes, but you've got different slits
• 1:18:33
  across the helmets and that sort of thing.
• 1:18:36
  There's a small spike at the top and then they both got like
• 1:18:39
  material coming over the side of the helmets as well.
• 1:18:42
  I think one of these are like an undead knight or something.
• 1:18:45
  That could be could be pretty cool actually.
• 1:18:47
  Yeah, that one of them. It almost looks like the the set
• 1:18:50
  of materials Hessian, doesn't it on the?
• 1:18:52
  It does, yeah. Yeah, absolutely.
• 1:18:58
  Very cool, well done. No problem at all.
• 1:19:01
  Yes, that's why I thoroughly enjoy doing this.
• 1:19:03
  I mean, it cost me more money allegiance con every year
• 1:19:04
  because I've seen all this stuff, but I thoroughly enjoy
• 1:19:07
  doing it. Worth mentioning that our
• 1:19:10

  Come on, Rich's Randoms episode, the next slide.
• 1:19:34
  We'll be recording soon. Could we have a bit behind on
• 1:19:36
  that? Yeah.
• 1:19:37
  Where I throw questions at you for 2025 minutes.
• 1:19:40
  Umm, we. Also plan to do some Patreon
• 1:19:42
  episodes. We do.
• 1:19:44
  We're recording a couple on Saturday, aren't we?
• 1:19:45
  So. Should be good for Saturday
• 1:19:49
  folks. We'll have to.
• 1:19:56
  We'll have to change whatever we were wearing in the live stream.
• 1:19:59
  We'll have to change into a different outfit.
• 1:20:02
  Well, yeah, but whatever. I'm wearing the light and
• 1:20:04
  probably covered in paint but I'm coming to the evening 1 so.
• 1:20:07
  Yeah, that's true. I'm sat there.
• 1:20:10
  We're just like paint dots on me that I've not managed to clean
• 1:20:13
  off because I missed it just points out.
• 1:20:15
  Could wear, could wear your pyjamas.
• 1:20:17
  There you go. No pyjamas.
• 1:20:20
  I'm not ten. No, I can't wear what I wear in
• 1:20:28
  bed because it wouldn't be a safer.
• 1:20:32
  That's for the OR safer. Anyone's not sure what that is?
• 1:20:35
  That's John's GIMP outfit, yeah. Stops me snoring.
• 1:20:42
  You know, the the orange ball in the in the mouth makes you agree
• 1:20:50
  to my nose. Yeah.
• 1:20:51
  Squeaky. So when you send over that, I'd
• 1:20:52
  imagine. Yeah.
• 1:20:57
  Right. And I think that's it then, is
• 1:21:00
  it? I think another one bites the
• 1:21:03
  dust. So this time next week the
• 1:21:06
  Kickstarter will be done, eh? Rich will be in Wales, will you?
• 1:21:11
  I will, yes. So that will be.
• 1:21:14
  Right, interesting. So maybe maybe we don't do an
• 1:21:17
  episode next week. Maybe the live stream is it.
• 1:21:20
  So let's see. We'll we'll figure out something
• 1:21:23
  out, man, maybe if you know or we'll see if and if Rich we can
• 1:21:27
  get you to dial in on your phone.
• 1:21:28
  We'll see. That might be a better way to do
• 1:21:30
  it. We'll have an episode for our
• 1:21:33
  Patreon, as they won't, we say. Oh yeah, definitely, definitely.
• 1:21:35
  We keep them happy, yeah. And yeah, I might even put this
• 1:21:40
  one up early if I get it done early tomorrow, I'll just stick
• 1:21:43
  it straight up because put a little gap between is and the
• 1:21:48
  live stream as well would be good shenanigans.
• 1:21:51
  Yeah. Yeah.
• 1:21:52
  So. Well, OK, I suppose I should
• 1:21:55
  play the outro. Stay safe out there everybody,
• 1:22:01
  and if you stay out for all 28 hours of the live stream, please
• 1:22:04
  go to bed before you
