Don't forget the lipstick when you paint him.

Mullet Almighty! Stop the Porkchop Express because it's a Jack Burton mini!

**Barzam**

Once Jack is in metal, the check will be in the mail. I need that figure.

new year, new stuff, so new it doesn't even seem to be on their catalogue page.

Resin stuff:

And a funky little number they named... Blanche.

Shame I already did my order for Captain Goodwin and Privater John, because she'd fit right in.

Oh and this little lady is coming like a Ray of hope.

**Siygess**

Very nice. Looking forward to 2018 when at least one of these will be available in metal..

**Paradigm**

Oh, god, if they do not-Star Wars stuff... My poor, poor wallet...

**Mymearan**

They did both Max and Furiosa for Fury Road, so chances are if Kev feels like it there may be more Star Wars for sure.

**Death By Monkeys**

Oh man, oh man. I so need to figure out a use for that Jack Burton model...

**Yodhrin**

Re Blanche - love it, but not going to love the incessant and frantic accusations of "stealing" from the crawly bumlick brigade on certain other forums.

**Compel**

Just checking so my TV knowledge isn't completely 100 percent terrible...

"Pulse" is heavily inspired by a girl from London that works in a shop, right?

Danica I don't know, however...

**CURNOW**

Pulse is not Jessica jones

Danica is not Black Widow. With her Avengers (first movie) haircut.

**spiralingcadaver**

Wow, love the pair of morrigans.

**Kid_Kyoto**

Just want to give Hasslefree kudos for great customer service. I ordered stuff back on Black Friday but noticed I didn't get the discount code and I forgot to add a model I wanted.

I quick email later and they threw in the missing model for free in lieu of the discount. Then they found one of the metals was out of stock and threw in a more expensive resin instead.

All of this delayed shipping, so they threw in some of their sci-fi dwarves too.

And some candy!

Great folks, really.

From Facebook:

Powered Armour Libby redux.....

It's high time she got a remake and I am taking advantage of the fact that Beesputty doesn't set until I want it to in order to play with her armour plates.

The idea for this pose is that she'll be hovering on a jump pack with a couple of big guns pointing forward over her shoulders.

Yes, she has a piece of metal up her bum. Please don't make me think less of you by making stupid jokes about it, because I'm too sober for that gak. Everyone can see it's there to support her while sculpting takes place tongue emoticon

Powered Armour KJ......

The counterpart mini of both Chipster and PA Libby.

I plan on making the whole family, in much the same way as the barbarian gang from last year. Possibly with their anthro-doggie companions wink emoticon

His pose is one where he's landing after a jump pack assisted leap. And, yes, his arms will be posed properly; one behind him to stabilise his flight and the other holding a gun.

**BobtheInquisitor**

I would prefer her arms to be forward, aiming weapons or something. Her current pose looks a little too Little Miss Muffet for my tastes. Her existing proportions and power armor look perfect.

Isn't that the "Iron man hovering using hand repulsors" pose?

Good point, but I thought she was using a jet pack and not still a noob. Iron Man's poses tended to be a lot less sprawled once he mastered his system.

Still, I would want Iron Man shooting, too, rather than back pedaling through the sky.

**Desubot**

That rod looks uncomfortable. :S

We're catching up!

I know the situation with Griffin last year really put a spanner in the metal casting works for pretty much everyone in the UK so the situation isn't HF's fault.. but hey, buyers wanna buy!

We're also at a time when a lot of our older moulds are coming to an end. This month alone we had to make 3 new moulds for top selling older figures (Sana, Alicia and Harby). We are investing more in moulding though to try and rectify the situation. Salute will help as we normally try to get 2 months worth of releases moulded to sell as pre-releases at the show.

We have more metal releases coming this month and then 2 sets of moulds lined up for 2 more sets of releases in March. We're hoping that within 3 or 4 months our resin to metal turnaround will be down to 2 months, which is where we'll probably leave it.

Between these previews and a certain other thread I need to make an order whenever Kailee the football player gets back in stock.

She's one of the dead moulds. Working on it!

Okay, well it may have to wait for the next order.

**BrookM**

I'll probably try and pick one or two models up over at Salute. There's always room in my 30k project for more Rogue Traders.

Just out of curiosity, what was that?

The owner unexpectedly passed away at a young age, real shame, as the guy was a real community pillar.
