Here are my figs plus the large magnet extra in the background. Only ordering the two the Iron Viking was a very pleasent extra(though i was expecting it) also the magnet is gona go right on my fridge door.

These are indeed my first customs since the necrolossus was manifactured by non indie company. And gotta say these are great. Nice feel to the figs both the resin Maneater and the Rubber Chicken and Viking. The rubber ones especially were surprisingly sturdy wich was good in my oppinion.
Here are some shots i took outside:

The sculpt for the Hell Chicken is AMAZING!!! Everything in it works for its favour, the ruff feel of the fig, the giant claws, the rusty tail and the thing that really makes the thing pop and what is: the open mouth screeching for flesh. Also one of the slight variations i got was that he is scented. I cant put my finger to it what the smell is but another cool detail i like. Weird how i only noticed later outsed how great the cyan blue was. Thanks to the snow that made the colour stand out even more.

And on to the venus Maneater. And first thing to mention is the thing that captures the eye, the friggin colour flush!!! Its got some deep transclurent red and grey and also silver, orange and even pink. Just simply love it! This was the resin one as said and i think it suits the fig well being so sturdy.

Amd then to the sculpt. It looks great with the open mouth and its side tiny heads. The tongue sticking out gives a very nice touch too among with the tenticles. The fig also stands very well and makes it kick ass.

Heres the iron Viking!! Cool little fig wich was surprisingly tall, I expected it te be tiny as hell haha... It makes a great opponent for the other figs with its sword and shield. This was all normal sculpt with out scents or anything purely made of black rubber. You cant see the shine in this but the out side pic makes it look like it really is. Cause my camera flash didnt like the colour on the inside pic...


All the figs stand well and are sculpted with skill. Also the disrtibution for one man operation was done so well! :) Didnt take too long for the package to get even to my backwoods. Gotta appreciate the personal touch put into both the email and the order letter inside the package so points on that for you Metalmonkey! Great job!!!

And as you may notice i really enjoy the figures and might just order few more sometime...


So thansk for MM and ironhaus productions for this release and keep up the great work!
Me and many other will be eagerly waiting for more UoV in the future.
