Oddly enough, Indy just stripped a Mino 3 that was painted up to match the Chaos All-Stars. I thought it was the spitting image, whether it was original or not we'll now never know.

Ah Indigo Jones!

...and he didn't bother to make some investigation if that piece could originate from the GW studios (whether how that could be done of course).

Dunno for sure. This is 3rd party,

He asked around a bit I think. Galak didn't know of any pics with the Mino 3 in those colors so it was assumed he was counterfeit. I'd have liked to hear from Phil whether he painted that mini for the team or at least held it next to the other minis to see if it fit with the style and consistency of the paint.

Maybe Galak did ask Phil. I don't know. I do know it was stripped.

I'm pretty sure that the Mino 3 was never painted for the All-Stars by Phil.

As for this figure ... its interesting.

The Nuffle's Nightmares were a Golden Daemon winning team ... I don't think it was created to be a team meant to be played so having a figure extra outside the original 11 for the GD would be interesting.

Only way to know will be to hold it up next to the others and check the basing and paintjob ... if its a true match should be easy to tell.

If not ... I'll hold it for Ken for either GenCon or the Chaos Cup to give back.

And the VA doesn't give me heads up anymore on good stuff like they used to ... sigh. James health just really isn't up to it and the guy running the shipping .... well we've had some "heated issues" in the past ... sigh.

yeah. It's packed and ready to go. I'll ship it to you tom when I get to the post office. ---I sent Tom pictures already

I'm 99% sure it's part of the team...the basing matches, the facemask is the same, the glossy shoulderpads/helmet and dull clothing...and it's a great job.
