Lots of people worldwide know about the Croc's long-standing tradition of making some of our upcoming models available in limited quantities at conventions. Well, we've decided to make our 'preview' models available for purchase to everyone worldwide, for the duration of Gen Con

As of midnight, Wednesday night, these miniatures will be available for purchase. We'll only be leaving them up for the next 4 days (while we're at Gen Con). Once we're back from the show, we'll be pulling the figures from the Croc Store, and they won't be back until they are officially released, months and months from now.

Here are a few of the preview miniatures that will be available ? there are lots more!

O-701  Titan Overlord            $54.95
O-107  Titan Hunter              $7.95
O-208  Demigod of Apollo         $7.95
O-211  Demigod of Artemis        $7.95
H-104  Wendigo Ice Warrior 2     $9.95
O-103  Spartan Strategos         $5.95
O-201  Leonidas, King of Sparta  $9.95
O-301  Spartan Hoplite Unit      $24.95
O-302  Mycenean Hoplite Unit     $24.95

Check back after midnight for a complete list - over 18 new packs of miniatures!
Due to the expected volume of orders - plus our recovery from the chaos of Gen Con! - we anticipate that all orders will be completely filled within 4-6 weeks. Some items are limited quantities, so it's first come, first served! If we're unable to fill your order, we will contact you immediately to see how you would like to proceed.

Here's the two that caught my eye

TITAN OVERLORD

THE ABOMINABLE SNOWBEAST

Both of these retail for $54.95, but there are other more reasonably priced miniatures at the link above.

Very Nice minis. Their Wendigo line has the fugly GW Yetis beat all to hell.

Hunting giants around the world?

The Titan would be great if it weren't for those ridiculous scales.

I'll be there for a while every day as I usually am at Gen Con hanging with Fitz, Cathy, Carlos, Roe, and Foss, and the rest of the guys from Croc I've known for over a decade now (how the time has flown). Cathy and Carlos used to be my bosses for a while when I worked in Indianapolis at the Game Preserve. If you're in town for Gen-Con, the Game Preserve store on US 31 is only 5-10 minutes from the convention center and is a really nice, clean, well run game store.

Can anyone give a basic overview of Wargods? I'm interested in the game, but I haven't been able to find the ruleset.

Whoah, they're even getting into regular historicals, what with those hoplites & all! Sweet! The Abominal Snowman is very, very cool. What can I say, I'm a yeti. Prabob!

Anywho, I'm glad to see Crocodile Games doing so well. Fitzpatrick does do some great work & is a swell guy to boot. I managed to meet him years ago when he was at the Balti GD and he had come up to the Iron Fist League room at the top of the Holiday Inn (or whatever) to demo the game just prior to release. Upstanding guy, really friendly and happy to show people how to get into sculpting. Exciting stuff.

They're not exactly 'regular' historicals, any more than their Aegyptus models are 'regular' historicals for ancient Egypt.

Anyone able to pick a couple of preview packs up for me? I'm stuck here in Canada so there's no way I can PM me if you can help!

Uh, these items are all available online.

Opps- I feel like a real tool :p I didn't even notice- I thought those were preorders.
