Thanks for continuing to update us, Orlando! Ordering info would be good, before it loses steam (although I doubt it will, just in a hiatus while folks wait for the sculpts to be "buyable").
No news on the goblin horde figures yet, but there's an auction up for a classic gobin doomdiver
GoblinAider Rickhard Ågren has done a brilliant job on this Doom Diver and had put it up on eBay with profits going to GoblinAid. So please have a look, make a bid and share far and wide on your own pages, blogs and forums.
Something different for GoblinAid - Andy at Heresy Miniatures not only sculpted a new gobbo for the GA set(s) but also kindly donated a handful of original master castings of the model.
I'll be listing a VERY limited edition of these on the GA eBay page soon, but in the meantime, for a chance to win one yourself free, just leave a comment on this thread and share the GA page with anyone you think might be interested.
For reference, this evil little chap's 22mm to the eye

(the win this master casting competition is on the Goblinaid Facebook page.... You need to go there to enter!)

Great news, the masters are all with Paul at Ral Partha Europe and mould making has begun!
the first handful of figures have gone into a mould- here we go
Goblinaid
Morning GoblinAiders, we think this is the definitive list of all the GA sculpts that are now with Paul at RPE for casting. If we've missed you, mega apologies and drop us a message!
Obviously this number of sculpts is going to take a while to be master mouded, production moulded and then cast - especially round Paul's full time work but hopefuly they should be available fairly soon and a bigger version of the last ones as they've not been shown before in the thread

Dave Leigh: Goblinaid

Ey yup Goblinaiders! Just finished a 2 hour phone conversation with Kev and he has asked me to pass on the following; he feels bad that he is not really a facebook person and does'nt have the time to reply to the goodwill messages. However he does get to read every single message from the community that wish him well and each one he values and is humbled with appreciation for what you say. So in a nutshell "I humbly appreciate everything that the community has done for me and my family, whether it be a donated sculpt, a goodwill message or a purchase from the Goblinaid store. A big shout out for Dags and Ian! Thank You so much!"

Ah, that's why I didn't see Andy Foster's before- it's part of the "Last Ones" (I'm guessing that means they arrived last!)
Is there any chance you could put up a big version of the "all together" pic, and just spoiler tag it? I checked it's url but couldn't find a bigger version.
yeah<
Woooo it's almost time!!! I wants my modern ones! Yay!
I also want gaels mini in pack 3... Is there a way to cherry pick single minis at a greater cost ?
Yeah, I'd love to cherry pick, too (and pay more, of course). But I have a feeling they'll only be selling packs for logistical reasons :-/. Hoping otherwise, though!
Good to see this coming to fruition. Are they going to be available as the full packs as well? Depending on the eventual cost, I'd like to get them all, probably at once, but it'll depend on the total costs.
I got my Foundry GoblinAid stuff several weeks ago. They're also good stuff.
Somebody asked roughly that question and this is the response from Paul from Ral Partha Europe
"RPE Miniatures and Games It will take me many weeks to get them all into production, I think we will start selling them as soon as they are moulded so that we can get some money to Kev sooner, when he most needs it. Once they are all done we will offer the full set as some sort of special deal."
as he says the faster folk buy the faster they can get money to Kev (so if you're in position to do this go for it)
but if you do want to wait (understandable if you're facing overseas postage) it sounds as if you may be able to get everything at once eventually

A bit more info from Paul at RPE responding to a question about how long it will take to cast them all
RPE Miniatures and Games It's going to take a while I'm afraid, (there are 42 sculpts- some of them mounted models, some pretty complex pieces that I'll have to cut up -like the gangnam goblins). I hope to get a batch of six out every two weeks or so, sooner if I can manage it around other work.
so we're probably looking at 2-3 months or so to get all 7 sets cast up (so with them that spread out it may be worth considering multiple purchases even if you're abroad if you're at all impatient!)
and
RPE Miniatures and Games We could have waited until all the figures were mastered before releasing them, but we thought that the sooner we could get some money to Kev, the better. The next master mould will be cooking tomorrow....
and on a personal note I've been told my 1st set shipped today (and and I've heard at least one other report of this too)! so my horde should start soon

They look great, thanks! I'm after Tre Manor's and Andy Foster's... but as I think Andy's is in the last set, I may pick up Tre's and a few other ones that I really liked first when they become available, and Andy's in a later order.

this is the LAST of the masters of this figure, so if you missed out on one of the previous auctions grab it now or you'll have to make do with an ordinary casting when they get to that set
This auction is for a set of six 28mm metal miniatures, sculpted by Kev Adams for Mike Burns' egyptian harem range, superbly painted by Paul Sanderson. All mounted on matching resin flagstone bases from Fenris Games.
