Tale of the Goofy Monk

Howdy!
There's been a few questions about when the goofy monk will be available, and what options there'll be for the costumes.
I can say that there'll be male and female options, and in terms of costumes we've opted for a monk robe and generic armor variant. This'll be a decent bed for customisation into middle-earth styled project through to sci-fi-esque applications, and hopefully there'll be something for everyone.
They'll be available in a limited run once the rest of the mold has been filled up - only 2 more characters to go over at ExManus Studios or so I'm told. It'll be excellent!

In the meantime, here's how I've styled one of those goofy lizard monks.

 Above: The goofy monk and the murderer that took the character away in a comicbook no less.
Personally, I feel that robot chicken was a better ending.

 Above: The monk's light-broadsword is interchangeable, and glows blue-violet under blacklight as no suitable ~1.7mm - 3mm translucent rods were sourcable at time of assembly. The figure looks good with clear or yellow/orange IMHO too.

Above: A few good monks for scale. You'll see that the goofy monk scales well to the source material, and that particularly it scales well to the RPG images that were available. The monk stands 2 heads taller than the Plo Koon monk, spot on. Some say its a little too large, but I can't hear them and all agree that the raw mini has so much detail packed on it (which I hope my paintwork didn't obscure too much). Thanks again for the awesome work to be found at ExManus Studios - those folks really know how to craft awesome sculptures in any sized application first time every time. The customer service cannot be understated - my dealings with them have been thoroughly warm and professional!

Cheers!

Up later,
review of futures resource estimates literature and population estimates:
what is the leeway here? How accurate are we talking, and are things closer to the 70year end of the curve than the 270 year end? (hint, its closer to the 70year end at present).
