Onibi – the PRELUDE Nuts Planet are prolific to say the least, the wealth and breadth of the subject matter is frightening, this time around we take a look at Onibi! This is a 1/12 scale bust comprising of seven polyurethane resin parts along with a clear acrylic right arm. It is sculpted by Jun-Sik Ahn and arrived in the usual blue sturdy box with the lid adorned by the box art painted by Myeong-Ha Hwang. The smaller parts are contained in a ziplock bag and everything is nestled between layers of shaped foam. First impressions are very good indeed!

New Releases-the Prelude Now I am back with more new releases in miniature. I am sorry for the wait since last time, I have simply had too much to catch up to since Monte san Savino, my preparations for that as well as the trip itself tom up most of my time and afterwards I really needed to focus on the many things that did not get my attention at the time… There are previous new releases here and do not miss the unmissable art here. Let’s see what new releases that have caught the Figurementors’ attention this week. First up we

Lord of Malice – the PRELUDE The Lord of Malice from Creature Caster, is instantly recognisable as a scaled up and better designed Be’lakor, in my opinion at least. With a wealth of detail and a superb cast, this demon stands an incredible 13.5 cm and with head and weapon options provides, display painters and gamers alike a real gem of a project! I remember when Creature Caster first turned up in the scene with their debut figure, The mountain Dragon and here they are now offering truly great creatures and monsters at a surprisingly competitive price. The kit arrived
