Thanks very much everyone. I am very proud of Ignatious Longbottom. I think he is one of the best things i have ever made and this has solidified my views on dropping the toy customs in favour of the fully created pieces. They take longer but are so much more what i want to be doing. BTW he is now adorning a Modofly journal. Lazer etched into the cover.. Also right now i am working on a very conplex sculpted piece for an upcoming G1988 show inspired by an infamous musical act.. Its a proper sculped piece in the style of a classical sculpture rather than an assembelage like Longbottom. I will post peeks here when its a little further along. Its fun to be branching out. Oh yes my first original non-platform toy is out next month too. Stephan LePodd stands just over 8 inches tall and comes packaged in a beautiful collectors gift box with numbered card. Produced by MINDstyle only 300 figures are being released of this original "Sunday Best" version. Look out for them in stores this December. The suggested retail price is $79.99 USD. I think a few of you here collect the odd bit of vinyl... And this is pretty odd.....

Thanks fellows. There will be other colourways but I dont have any release dates or prices or run sizes for those yet. Not sure what the whole gameplan is on the releases yet. I expect the following colourways will be lower edition numbers.. Plus there will be the mini series too.
I should have a few of each for sale but very limited amounts.
