Sculpted by Tom Meier. Scale 1/50. Not sure if it will be released and by who but WOW that is a hell of a sculpt!

Is this 28mm? If so, it most certainly is a nice sculpts... minus the spikes ofcourse!

It certainly is great, just as good as you'd expect from Mr. Meier. But if I'm doing the conversion math correctly, I believe 1/50 scale would put this at 36mm. I could certainly be wrong, though.

That is probably the case.

Tom Meier does not normally work in 28mm scale.

Looks like a trophy topper. Nice sculpt but not sure there is much use for it in the BB world especially if the scale is that large.

Not that keen, to be honest. Can't say there's anything "wrong" with it, but it just doesn't scream "great" to me. :-?

Absolutely brilliant sculpt.

But BBwise, more spikey! Make 'em bleed...

[edit]Ooh, just seen some of his other stuff, pretty sweet! Can someone persuade him to do some nice big shoulder pad spikey 28mm FF stuff?[/edit]

Guys! See the base? With the squarish hole in the front? Reminds me of the old electric football game players....what is the sculpt for?

It is indeed for electric football, whatever that is. Tom Meier posted about it on frothersunite.com. Didn't say who it was for though.

Here's the thread from Frothers for those who are interested
http://www.frothersunite.com/phpBB2/vie ... hp?t=18618

It's impossible to tell from the discussion if he's going to make more players or if it is going to be released-

If someone release a team of these - Well yeah!!! 8)

If they are the same scale as the current brands of Electric Football games, they will be too small for BB.
