One Small Step For Man...

Miniatures Painted by Ernie Baker

I wanted to take a moment and introduce you all to the latest products we are carrying - Woodbine Design Company's Sci-Fi miniatures. This company is an subdivision of Gripping Beast Miniatures that specializes in various other ranges that don't necessarily fit with Gripping Beast's other historical lines. We just received our first order of these models and we are excited to show them to you.

The models above are part of the "Soapy's" Line. These were models specially made by one of the sculptors who liked them so much he made them available to everyone! The packs available in this line are:

Left Side - Laser Troopers

Right Side - Deck Officers

Forefront - Hostile Environment Suit

A key element of these models is that they maintain a hard sci-fi look and feel. These figures look like something from a near future timeline where humanity has expanded to the stars and is exploring the new worlds they discover. This is not the science fiction of the far future filled with psykers and other things, this is more akin to Original Series Star Trek. This is about exploration and strange new worlds and aliens to investigate!

These figures will be on display at Cold Wars 2012 at our booth and will also be available for purchase. If you would like to see more of the Woodbine Design Company figures, please head over to their website for a preview.

We look forward to showing you a lot more offerings in our expanding science-fiction and fantasy ranges soon. Please keep checking out the blog for updates.

Until next time,

Jeff
