Sorry, but this Mathom House (as Gildor chose to call it) was very much forgotten by me … though you know, I cannot haste everything. Alas. I could not find everything I once provided here, as I just checked.
Anyway, some days ago, in the Pony that was, Master Hsf62 made some joke about me now being able to take new pics of a new “Dance of Razaracs” … I’m still working on that … though I cannot haste each and everything that is …pics will come soon after assembly and priming is finished.

Ah, I found this thread again. Sorry for keeping you waiting (in case you have been waiting at all) but I cannot haste, you know.
I wanted to start this thread because of the release of the new Razarac MS599, which I think is a wonderful figure. – Why do I place it here in the Mathom House? Well, as I would like to compare the new Razarac with two others and one of them is a very fine conversion by Master Holger he once gave me without having asked him to do so (So, once again, thank you very much again, Master Caster, this time in public.)

So now we go …

First we had the old M78 Razarac. According to the description in MERP ist wings are ridiculous, I always thought. Have a look:

Sorry, but I don’t have any better M78 in my collection.

Then many years later I found out that Master Hsf62 was of the same opinion concerning those funny tiny wings. He then gave me his Version of a Razarac.

You know the wings he used for that conversion, I’m sure. I think they’re much more appropriate indeed.

Now there’s the new one, MS599 and you can clearly see that the wings have improved a lot. That’s why I think this second version of the Razarac by Chris Tubb is excellent. Have a look (it was a bit hard to assemble, by the way):

So now for comparison of the three figures, so that you might better see the difference in size of the wings :

Alright, for the new “Dance of the Rasaracs” (I still don’t know, where and when the first one went lost here) I invited a special guest you might know. So just enjoy …

Great comparison Master Ent. thanks a lot for these nice and funny meetings.
I wonder what could happen in MERP with such croud ! 😆

May I suggest you add 1 or 2 musicians (and a dancing girl) around ?
