I'm surprised none of you cunts have posted these yet.

(From the KS update.)
From top left working across, then down, we have...

A brand new Judge Dredd (we'll call him Judge Dredd 3), a new sculpt by Shane Hoyle (these are all Shane Specials) that was done in his spare time - so that was a lovely surprise for us when it plopped through the post box. Shane had not told us he was working on it!

We also have a variant Cal-Hab Judge...

On the end, a new Street Judge, this time with a Lawrod (Shane is also apparently working on a new Female Street Judge with a Stub Gun...).

On the bottom left, a Female Punk Gang Leader, likely destined for the Starter Set (coming out in November, just in time to be claimed by the Chief Judge pledges, so they can expect a big box coming through the door in time for Christmas!

Finally, a brand new Heavy Weapons Judge with Lazooka - I love this model, the detailing on the weapon is just gorgeous (if a weapon can be described that way!). For those of you who have not yet received Specialist Judges, this is the Lazooka-armed Judge you will be getting - the previous model is being retired.

Pretty decent figures I guess, though some poor posing.

I still find it amazing that Mongoose didn't have parts like helmets, shoulder pads and guns moulded and cast to be used across all figure.

Nice to see Gwart working again. These are way better than some of the recent Judges.

Hope everything else can get sorted though.....

If the Dredd stuff looked this good normally, I would have a lot more of it!

If that all kicks off again you're getting the blame and the cleaning bill.

This.

I've had a message from Shane explaining why he disappeared - its not my place to go into the reasons why, but I've accepted his explanation/apology. Shane has said he is going to finish my greens asap, so looking forward to seeing them shortly.

:D

They look quite nice, certainly better than some of the other models in the range. I guess Mongoose have to grab these while they can before Shane drops of the face of the earth again.
