Now you can own your very own version of everyone's favourite
delinquent double act, 2000AD's D.R. and Quinch,
thanks too the latest two releases from Robert Harrop Designs...
In
recent years Robert Harrop Designs have brought us some excellent
collectable figurines including classic characters from The
Beano and Roald Dahl books. More recently they have
stepped into the world of 2000AD, introducing characters
from the Judge Dredd series.
The
company's latest releases in the 2000AD range sees
everyone's favourite delinquent duo D.R. and Quinch
immortalised as extremely collectible figures.
The
D.R. statuette is slightly cheaper than the Quinch figure,
but is much more animated showing D.R. firing his blaster
into the ground, with the recoil sending him hurling backwards.
Sculptor Matt Buckley has done a first rate job of producing
a very collectible ornament which will take pride of place
in anyone's home.
But,
where this figure really stands out is the fantastic job they
have done of hand painting it. There is some great shading
on D.R.'s T-shirt and the careful brushstrokes on the gun's
explosive discharge is wonderful.
If
you have £85 spare then buying both D.R. and Quinch
could be one of the best investments you make this year. If
that will break the bank, then you can probably do without
Quinch, but you have to get your hands on D.R.
I'm
looking forward to Robert Harrop Designs next launch in this
series.
