It’s kind of chaos right now, ain’t it? It’s especially odd when the slogan from a dystopian quiz show becomes legitimate advice.

With that in mind, we’re launching a discount code and an additional goblin. Let’s start with the goblin. He’s certainly of the times and his name is… Lou Rolls.

From upon his throne of toilet paper he sneers at everyone else. Thanks for that, mate.
This relies on you knowing that “loo roll” is a British term for toilet paper. If you didn’t know before, you know now!

No idea how long he’ll be available for – depends on how long he’ll be relevant for, really!

Onto the sale!Yes, the code “remainindoors” (or “remain indoors”) will grant you, the lucky viewer, 10% off Fox Box branded stuff.

With each goblin I sculpt I try to improve on some aspect. This month I was working on movement in the form of a charging pose:

There’s still plenty of room for improvement but I’m relatively pleased with how he turned out. He was originally going to be holding something like a Japanese lunge mine (I’d recently encountered them in Battlefield V and found some of the players using it darkly hilarious) but I thought it was probably a bit of kit that falls into the “bit obscure” category. Instead I opted for a cross between a rocket and a Mad Max universe thunderstick.

There’s a detail that’s a little tricky to see unless you look carefully – there’s duct tape holding the det cord to the stick. It’s mostly hidden by Tanks’ hands but it’s there. Also real world det cord burns at a rate of kilometres per second but I love sculpting the stuff and it looks more interesting than a plain fuse!

Also the base might look a bit different from others – that’s because we’ve just switched to using MDF bases supplied by Warbases. Casting our own is a hassle and they have been fantastic to work with. I recommend them!

Here’s a turntable video of the finished model:

I’ll be honest, life has never given me the option to watch any of the Rambo films. I mostly associate Stallone’s character with machine guns but apparently he sometimes uses a compound bow, at least that seems to be the case based on the concept art Depiff gave me.

Stalking his prey with a bow – that’s more the kind of cupid I wanted to sculpt for February!

There’s also a turntable video of him:

It’s December and we’ve just put the Christmas decorations up. Blastin’ Kap has left the shop and today we welcome Skippy Kai-Yay, assuming we can coax him out of the vents…He’ll be available until the end of December and is also free with orders over £50 during that time.

Curious what Depiff’s concept art looked like for this Christmas avenger? Have at it:

Now for the 360˚ view:

 

He’s a single piece, base included, something we’ve not done before. Let us know how you feel about that via the usual social media channels!

It’s the fifth of November – time for fireworks! This month’s limited edition goblin is Blastin’ Kap and he’s available as of right now! He’ll be gone on the 30th so you’ve not got long to snap him up. He’s free with orders over £50 though!

Much like Kap’s colleague, Jack Goblinton, the concept art was done by my old friend Depiff:

As per usual there’s also a 360˚ turntable video too:
