Title: Court Jester resin flat
Post by: kevind on May 31, 2013, 08:49:02 AM

Awhile ago, a court jester, looking sadly at his doll was released by some company in resin, almost a demi-round.
The figure was taken from a Norman Rockwell painting.
Does anyone know who released this?
Thanks,
Kevin

There is a figure a bit like this description, just been released by Benedict.

If you could post a photo Gerry, I could see if Benedict is reselling it?

Kevin,


Not sure why I dragged this out of the memory banks but...


Red Lancer's is carrying this figure from Nemrod now - I just ordered one.  (Red Lancer's is a fantastic source for figures in the US, mainly rounds.)  Their site is in the Links section.
