A little off topic but as they are moulded by GZG I hope this passes.

The latest Miniature Wargames has an advert for GZG which includes photos of
some extraordinary Steampunk
items - a rocket powered penny farthing bicycle and
more. THere is also mention of rules to accompany the figures.

Any comments bwana Jon? You public are dying to know -
and I think even a plain vanilla penny farthing (I am sure there is a proper
name for them but I cannot recall it) would have a fair market.

They are Nic (Eureka) Robson's Pax Limpopo range, and yes, we're casting them
under licence for the UK and Euro markets. Customers in Oz should order from
Nic, I don't know if KR and Nic have worked out a US deal yet but in the
meantime I guess US customers can order from whichever of us they prefer!
There will apparently be rules and gamettes at some point, but for once you'll
have to nag Nic about this and not me!!!!
I've also got some partly-formed plans for a couple of steampunk
vehicles..... <grin>
