In this Figure Forge Matt uses 2 part epoxy to fill the gaps on the beholder from the Scoundrels of Skullport.

I’ve had so much fun with this model I can’t wait to get it painted up. I’ve even been inspired to make a dungeon for my kids.

hill giants pledgePathfinder Adventure Path: The Hill Giant’s Pledge (Giantslayer 2 of 6)

$22.99

The marauding orcs have been defeated, but great danger remains – the hill giant chieftain Grenseldek did not recover the treasures of the tomb beneath the besieged town of Trunau, and she will never rest until she has made them her own. The heroes must travel by riverboat through the orc-hold of Belkzen to the abandoned border fort that the giant has claimed as her lair and put a stop to the threat at its source!

 

“The Hill Giant’s Pledge” is a Pathfinder Roleplaying Game adventure for 4th-level characters. The adventure continues in the Giantslayer Adventure Path, a classic sword & sorcery campaign that pits the players against hordes of evil giants. Several new monsters, additional missions for the Mindspin Mountains region, an article on the ecology of drakes, and Michael Kortes’s Pathfinder Journal round out this volume of the Pathfinder Adventure Path!

FireflyFirefly: Fistful of Credits

$59.99

Do the job.  Get paid.  Aim to misbehave.

 

Firefly: Fistful of Credits is a two-to-four-player cooperative game where players step into the boots of Serenity’s crew to pull off a series of dangerous heists and hopefully walk away with their lives and a tidy fortune! The game features 3 distinct heist scenarios inspired by the episodes Bushwhacked, The Train Job, and Ariel; each with their own highly-detailed board, tokens, and Heist card, which details unique objectives from the show that must be accomplished in order to win.

 

Players pair up any two of the nine crew members, forming unique teams that work with other players to collect gear, fight, and face both luck and misfortune while racing against the clock to complete the heist. Be careful: triggering an alarm, lollygagging around or sticking your nose in the wrong crate can open up a whole world of ugly – be it Reavers, Alliance, or the sinister Hands of Blue!

 

Fail and it’s all over…but succeeding means you and your crew walk away with more than a Fistful of Credits!

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
6c7e7977-4ecf-4835-a941-490d1857c411LEGENDS OF CTHULHU RETRO ACTION FIGURES FROM WARPO, OUT NOW

First Action Figures Based on the Legendary World of H.P. Lovecraft Release in Toy and Hobby Stores Nationwide Today
CHICAGO, IL (February 10, 2015): From a successful Kickstarter less than a year ago, to toy stores across the country, Warpo is thrilled to announce the Legends of Cthulhu retro action figure line releases today. Legends of Cthulhu are the first action figures based on the world of H.P. Lovecraft, and include The Deep One, The Professor, The Cultist, and the Spawn of Cthulhu himself, each a 3.75”, retro-styled action figure, sold separately (MSRP $19.99).

“We can’t thank enough everyone who supported the Legends of Cthulhu Kickstarter, and Warpo’s vision to create a truly unique and authentic retro toy line,” says Tommy Baldwin, VP of Product Development and Warpo co-Owner. “Fans of H.P. Lovecraft have waited a long time to have their elder god in toy form, and we are proud to have done justice to the worlds and characters.”

Legends of Cthulhu launches a toy company looking to totally change the collectibles market,” says Bryan Katzel, President and Warpo co-Owner. “We want our customers to expect more from the toys they collect…and with a slew of exciting new projects in the works, Warpo intends to deliver.”

With artisan craftsmanship and detailed Method Manufacturing ™, Legends of Cthulhu figures stand easily alongside vintage action figure collections. To ensure an authentic retro look and feel, Warpo enlisted sculptor Eddy Mosqueda (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Masters of the Universe), and artist Ken Kelly (Micronauts, Manglor Mountain, KISS’ Destroyer album cover), both pioneers of the look and feel of beloved action figures from the 1970s and 1980s, to work with them to develop Legends of Cthulhu.

Legends of Cthulhu retro action figures are available at BigBadToyStore, in comic book stores, and in toy and hobby shops nationwide.

About Warpo

pfdf03PFDF03 Dindrenzi Federation Firepower Leviathan Helix
The Hyperion Leviathan perfectly exemplifies the mindset of the Federation forces – that of the fast assault aggressor. Rugged and dependable, the Leviathan is capable of sustaining tremendous punishment during its military operations across the Firestorm Galaxy. The humanoid design is intended to exemplify the ‘human perfection through adversity’ strategic thinking of the Dindrenzi, as well as deliver terrifying proof of the ‘superiority of man’.
The devastating vehicle is armed with two arm-mounted Mangonel-VII Titan Cannons – a new design that permits the tracking of targets over a far greater range without adversely affecting the Leviathan’s power supply.
In addition, the Hyperion has a shoulder rack fitted with Estock Flak Launchers, allowing the war machine to defend large areas of the battlefield with an umbrella of anti-air fire. The Hyperion is also fitted with a Nexus Designator, secreted within the command centre in the war machine’s head. This serves to support the rest of the Dindrenzi drop assets that are waiting for their turn to prove themselves in the maelstrom of battle.
The Firepower Leviathan Helix may also find itself supported by up to two squadrons of Leto Light Tanks. These are specially modified to permit the vehicles to drop from low orbit into the thick of the action. Ordinarily these vehicles execute a light reconnaissance role in the Dindrenzi battle formations, however the modified Letos in the Firepower Helix are more likely to find themselves in close support of their command element, assaulting targets that attempt to engage the war machine’s flanks.
Contains: 1 Hyperion Class Leviathan, 10 Leto Light Recon Tanks and 1 Drop Site Marker. Models supplied unpainted and unassembled.

PFTA03PFTA03 Terran Alliance Firepower Leviathan Helix
The Odin Class Leviathan advances through the battlefield shrugging off all bar the most concerted attacks using a combination of heavy armour and overlapping shield technology. Armed with a powerful G-72 Legacy Laser, this Terran war machine is one of the most powerful vehicle killers in the Firestorm Galaxy – woe betide the enemy that presents its flank to this behemoth!
In addition to its main armament, the Odin also carries a powerful Shrike Heavy Rotor Gun for engaging aerial threats and a number of body mounted Heavy Raptor Grenade Launchers for overwhelming dug-in enemy Infantry at short range.
Finally, the Odin has the ability to execute Artillery Attacks using a Nexus Designator. Whilst only short range, the Odin frequently uses the attack to defend itself from approaching foes by calling down the attack upon itself!…. shrugging off the damage and destroying any remnants of surrounding foes with a combination of grenades and close quarters battle.
Terran Firepower Leviathan Helix are commonly supported by up to two Squadrons of Valkyrie Light Tanks. These are used to capture objectives close to their command element, and operate best in close support with other elements in a Terran Alliance battle line.
Contains: 1 Odin Class Leviathan, 10 Valkyrie Light Recon Tanks and 1 Drop Site Marker. Models supplied unpainted and unassembled.
