A few months ago I saw a photo a while back of a Jabberwocky miniature. I believe it was a photo from Reaper's exhibit at this year's Gen Con. Has this miniature been released, or has a future release of it been announced?

`Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.

"Beware the Jabberwock, my son!
The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!
Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun
The frumious Bandersnatch!"

He took his vorpal sword in hand:
Long time the manxome foe he sought --
So rested he by the Tumtum tree,
And stood awhile in thought.

And, as in uffish thought he stood,
The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame,
Came whiffling through the tulgey wood,
And burbled as it came!

One, two! One, two! And through and through
The vorpal blade went snicker-snack!
He left it dead, and with its head
He went galumphing back.

"And, has thou slain the Jabberwock?
Come to my arms, my beamish boy!
O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!'
He chortled in his joy.

`Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe;
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.

It just rolls off the tongue :)

I had not seen one from reaper, perhaps it was the one from bloodmoon miniatures picture

It was a green at GenCon, so it's just entered the production stream. A few other figures from GenCon have recently been released… or will be later this month. So I'd say expect it between now and January. I'm looking forward to getting my hands on one too.

I found it mentioned a couple times in the Reaper forum, but no mention of schedule :(

It appears to be a Pathfinder mini judging by his buddies and the book in the background.

"Beware the Jabberwock, my son!
The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!
Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun
The frumious Bandersnatch!"

Are they also going to follow up with the Jubjub and the frumious Bandersnatch?

Hey 28mmMan – did you see their article on how to take a swarm of giant rats and turn them into slithy toves, to gyre and gimble in the wabe?

O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!
