Expect my first in a couple of days. I've just been waiting for the announcement  :icon_mrgreen:.

Anybody speak spanish? I'm calling him "Il capitano" Is that the right article? Basically he's the leader of a bunch of Brazilian street kids aged ten or so...

All we need now are one or two more so it doesn't have it all its own way!

Closing date is 31 December 2007.

Been having picture uploading problems. My stationary has crashed. But the competition seems stiff even if it's just one  :icon_wink:

I believe Alexi intends to auction it fully painted on ebay for Children in Need sometime in the New Year. I don't think it can be taken into production by anyone other than GW as it was specifically constructed to be a Centigor. And in any event I am not certain that it will have been constructed in a way that would withstand the rigours of production. As a one off though I imagine it will do quite well on ebay and I will certainly consider bidding if it appears although I am not a big Centigor fan in truth.   :icon_smile:

I know it cant be produced and sold due to IP issues. I was hoping that she would auction away the one she made. I know it will fetch an obscene amount on Ebay. I might get in there and bid if she does sell it.
