J is for Jackson; Steve Jackson

Now that I'm semi-homeless and meandering between various points Southeast as the spirit takes me/the tolerance levels of friends and family allow - normal service may well be surpassed!! - I won't be fighting two legal cases while...yeah; that's all for the other blog! Anyway, within days of placing my entire collection in storage, I was already adding to the 'Master Reference Collection'!!

Checking out some old haunts (Esdevium Games - new owners, new name and the shop seems smaller?) after a few years in the wilds of West Berkshire; I found these little horrors.

Now I thought I'd covered the card figures of Steve Jackson right back at the start of this blog, but he's not on the tag list so maybe I didn't, although the format did evolve quite a lot in the first few months, and I didn't tag as well as I try to now!

Anyway; he/they're now making little PVC figurines around 28mm for a specific game of theirs, but still paintable and usable with other games/systems, then they give them away free, in sixes, with a relatively inexpensive Steve Jackson plastic bag!

There is a Munchkin 'Babe' of hideous allure, and a bog-standard munchkin with an Orc-b-gone chainsaw and a hammer borrowed from Thor himself...probably...hummm....get them before they're gone!

Meanwhile I'll try to have an evening re-tagging some of the early posts...

    I recognize a lot of things you're showing on your blog. It's bring me back to the time when I was a child!

    And welcome to my blog!

    Hi Peter, glad you're getting something from it...I was very impressed with the work on your's. Loved the trench system...oh!; to have the time and space!

    I think I linked to you a while ago, but I had a session of re-following the other night as Blogger seem to have deleated my 'follows' during their destructive upgradeing back in the summer!

    Thanks! But the trench system is not mine. It's just a few pictures I took on CRISIS in Antwerp this year. But I agree it's impressive.
