DWC's Rogue Trooper Decommissioned

 This from Rin and DWC:

Hi Guys,

Well, Rogue Trooper's production moulds have expired and we have decided NOT to remake them. This means that Rogue Trooper is no longer available!


Rogue Trooper was our first 2000AD project over two years ago so it's a good time to retire him.

Many thanks!
 

Rin

If you are interested at all in this classic offering, the time to act is now! Red Lancers and CMON, to name but two, still show it as available.

    1. Hey guy!

      When I was posting the announcement, I was thinking about you and picking-up Dredd at the Atlanta Show in 2013. I am very surprised that Rin has decided not to re-mold him, as it is not only a stellar piece, but it was recently featured in an article in the Feb 2015 issue (#232) issue of Tamiya Model Magazine International. Still, it is the "elder statesman" of the line, and room must be made for the new recruits!

      Do you have yours painted? It would qualify for the 2000AD painting competition!

      All the best!!

      A~
