Well for those who dont mind shelling out a lot, you could own your very own Cthulhu for $150 (though retail is a whopping $300). Though you might be able to go grab the ones from Horror Clix for cheaper or settle for the one from reaper

My goal with Mythos Foundry is to provide finely crafted miniatures, sculptures, art prints, gaming gear, and collectables. This Kickstarter will help in laying a foundation for this.

The funding of this Kickstarter will allow us to produce the model kits, miniatures and art prints. Funding will also go towards the production of a web site for Mythos Foundry.

Cthuhlu is a work in progress. These images will be updated as the sculpt progresses.

Cthulhu is 16.5 inches to the top of his head, 21" tall with the wings!

Sculpted by Michael Brand

Miniatures: The miniatures are in Trü 30™. Trü 30™ is approximately 1/61 (1/60.96) scale, where a six foot tall human would be 30mm to the top of the head. All the models in the Trü 30™ range will maintain the 1/61 scale to each other (Cthulhu is also in Trü 30™).

A pledge of $150 at the Cthulhu Level is an amazing deal, as the Cthulhu kit will retail for $300. All miniatures unlocked during the stretch goals will also be added free to the Cthulhu, Elder Thing, and Old Ones Levels.

The miniatures and Cthulhu sculpt will be cast by Ed Fortae at Troll Forged Miniatures.






Several stretch goals too

Stretch Goal #1 $9,500: The Colonel, Mythos Hunter

The intrepid hunter of Mythos horrors. 30mm (This is the "28mm miniature" shown in the video). Add on to your pledge for $8, Cthulhu Level and above will receive one free!
Sculpted by Michael Brand

Stretch Goal #2 $12,000: Art Print - The Dunwich Horror

An art piece inspired by "The Dunwich Horror" a short story by H.P. Lovecraft.
Art by Joshua Meehan.

Stretch Goal #3 $14,000: Miniature - Wilbur Whateley

"It was partly human, beyond a doubt, with very man-like hands and head, and the goatish, chinless face had the stamp of the Whateleys upon it. But the torso and lower parts of the body were teratologically fabulous, so that only generous clothing could ever have enabled it to walk on earth unchallenged or uneradicated." ("The Dunwich Horror")

Wilbur Whateley from "The Dunwich Horror". 43mm. Add on to your pledge for $10, Cthulhu Level and above will receive one free!
Sculpted by Michael Brand

Stretch Goal #4 $16,000: Art Print - Pickman's Model

An art piece inspired by "Pickman's Model" a short story by H.P. Lovecraft.
Art by Jordan Abernethy.

Stretch Goal #5 $18,000: Miniature - 1:6 Scale Ghoul Bust

“These figures were seldom completely human, but often approached humanity in varying degree. Most of the bodies, while roughly bipedal, had a forward slumping, and a vaguely canine cast. The texture of the majority was a kind of unpleasant rubberiness.” (“Pickman’s Model”)
Sculpted by Jordan Abernethy. Add on to your pledge for $20, Cthulhu Level and above will receive one free!

Check back often, as we have many more stretch goals planned: Miniatures, Art Prints, T-Shirts, Sketch Books, and More!!

I'm sure the reaper will be even cheaper than that. Can't beat the 10 dollar kickstarter price though, lol.

This looks nice for a start, but the other two finished minis I'm not very impressed with.
