Ral Partha Europe: Goblin-Aid Goblins Released!


Ral Partha Europe has just released the miniatures that were sculpted for Goblin-Aid, I especially like the boar rider.


GoblinAid is a project launched by Ian 'Geronimo' Brumby (of Fenris Games) and Jon 'Dags' Atter (cat-herder for the Frothers Charity projects) to raise funds for Kev Adams to help in his recovery. 

On March 20th Kev Adams was brutally assaulted during a robbery at his home. A Facebook page was soon set up for gamers to share news and coordinate some help for Kev- GoblinAid. Within days some of the finest sculptors in the business had volunteered to sculpt goblin miniatures that could be sold to help the cause. With further additions from amateur and professional sculptors alike the number of charity sculpts has grown to over two dozen. 

Here at RPE we have volunteered our services to bring these figures into production with all profits going direct to Kev himself.  We are delighted to be able to help out with Kev's recovery and are looking forward to getting more sculpts from him as soon as he is working again. The Goblinaid sculpts have now arrived at RPE and the first batch are in a mould! There are some cracking sculpts here- coming to the RPE store soon. We will cover the raw material cost and VAT- all proceeds after that will go straight to help Kev.
