I'm a real fan of character figures and I feel that a set of figures based on Blackadder 4 (goes forth) would be great sellers. Captain Blackadder
Private Baldric
Lieutenant George
General Sir Anthony Hogmanay Melchett
Captain Kevin Darling Perhaps a figure of Blackadder with pencils up his nose and his underpants on his head to make up a six figure pack or perhaps Captain Flasheart of "The Twenty Minuters". Somebody get the Perries on the phone! For legal reasons it'd probably be a good idea to call them World War One Heroes or some such! |

So would I! To parphase one of my favorite scenes of all of the "Blackadder" series... "Who would notice another mad man in this war?" - CPT Blackadder |

Why not more appropriatly WWI Zeros? Oh, why doesn't it pass more often on Comedy Channel (Canada)? |

You can get the Blackadder series on DVD in Canada. Check out "Future Shop". |

Lord Flasheart needs to come in his own pack. He's so hot he'd melt any other miniatures in close proximity.WOOF! |

Made a note in my diary on the way here. Simply says... "Bugger." |

Blackadder is already modelled - any Scottish ECW mounted officer - scouting before Philiphaugh - you,ve got him. Yes the family Blackadder exists ... as does many other personae. |

How about doing Fluffy George's rabbit, the one Sir Michael claims he shot after running over him and putting his dog on him? My theory is Fluffy was really a Hun agent who killed Sir Michael and impersonated him. The motive - nobody could be as incompetant as Sir Michael throughout the entire War, so German intelligence put in a ringer to ensure he'd never have a decent idea!!! |

Additional character pack with Nurse Mary Baron von Richtoven Field Marshall "Dougie" Hague and of course "Speckled Jim" and the firing squad! Incidentally a little research on the interweb thingy revealed that George's full name is: " Lieutenant The Honourable George Colhurst St. Barleigh" |

BBC Worldwide licensing would be problematic…HOWEVER… I know TFL did a limited release with Mud and Blood, now fairly tricky to get hold of (I know I've tried) Just a thought, IF someone somewhere was to do the sculpts, and if that someone, somewhere, was to make say make a contribution to say Help for Heroes for every pack sold, there is a reasonable chance that someone would not only secure the writers permission but also the BBC's, make a fair few quid for HfH and also make a lot of WW1 and VBCW gamers happy. Failing that…Capt. SlackBladder, Lord Belchett etc… Surely a go-er Regards as always, Old Goat. |
