Introducing Colonel Rombus “Pewter” edition.

Launching at Designer Con comes a new edition of the popular Colonel Rombus character.

Each 6” tall “Coldcast” Pewter figure has “Bronze” inset gear details, a inset glass eye lens and a real metal Brass winding key.
Sculpted by Doktor A and hand cast and antiqued in England by Baroque Designs.

Within the edition run there are randomly hidden a handful of “Chase” versions of the Colonel. Where the regular version has a green eye, the chase versions have a purple eye.

The edition is of only 25 pieces.
The first 15 will be available from the Doktor’s booth ( 416 ) at Designer Con. With the remaining amount available from his online store a little later. (When he gets back to the UK)

£90 / $150 each

The second casting run of the Metal edition Stumpy Warburton figures are now available to purchase direct from my online store.

Each is an edition of 100 pieces. The total run will be cast in several passes. The first run sold very fast.
£20 each, 3″ tall, polished and antiqued “cold-cast metal” resin figures, bagged and signed by Doktor A.

Stumpy Warburton
Proofreader and part time poet, Samuel “Stumpy” Warburton is the founder of the Limbs Can Hold You Back Society.
He is an outgoing, social fellow with ambitions to one day take up hang-gliding.

An all new original Mini Mechtorian resin figure for ToyconUK.
Created entirely by hand by Doktor A this is a true Mechtorian art multiple. Sculpted, molded, cast, finished and painted by the Doktor. Only 10 of these 2″ tall mini-figures were created exclusively for ToyCon UK.

Each of the super limited edition comes signed, numbered and bagged in a header carded pack. Each piece is created to the same level of detail and finish as the Doktor’s gallery show pieces. Each is lovingly hand made and thus each piece is unique.
Dont miss your chance to purchase a micro Mechtorian figure every bit as good as his larger cousins. £70 each from Booth number 17 at ToyconUK in London 12th April.

Colonel Rombus
Now retired, the colonel was constructed to lead the army of Retropolis. To this day there has been no need for military action, though this doesn’t stop a perpetually sozzled Rombus telling tall stories of how he showed the natives a thing or two during his time in the Congo…

Originally designed for Mini Mechtorians toy series 2, Rombus got as far as a 3″ tall prototype before the project was cancelled.
Photos of that prototype resurface on the internet now and then and he has become a popular and much requested character.

April 12th 2014 sees the debut of a new incarnation of the Colonel.
A revised, all new  6″ tall “Coldcast Bronze” edition of 50 pieces will debut at ToyconUK .

Sculpted by Doktor A and hand cast and antiqued in England by Baroque Designs (who previously did such a splendid job with the Phizogs).This hefty solid piece features an inset glass eye lens and real metal Brass winding key. Each piece is signed and numbered by Doktor A.

15 piece will be available at Toycon for the price of £65 with the rest to follow soon online.
