It's for the greater good.

*echoes* The Greater Good. *echoes*

Quotes from the film "Shaun of the Dead" Leman. Part one of the "Three Flavours Cornetto Trilogy". Personally I prefer "Hot Fuzz" but all three are brilliant parodies of horror tropes.

[Leman]

Must admit I preferred Hot Fuzz to Shaun of the Dead, but then again I find the zombie genre a bit gut churning so tend not to watch much of that particular genre. Never heard of the three cornetto trilogy.

[toxicpixie]

Each film has a different flavour, much like a multipack of different flavoured Cornetto's

Also, a different Cornetto flavour is eaten in each.

I think "Hot Fuzz" is the best of them, tbh, but both "Shaun" & "Worlds End" are still pretty good!

Hmmm, we've gone from celebrating 25 years of goodness to the world to zombies! As for me, I am delighted with both - very happy for Pendraken, and achieving 25 years says they are doing something very RIGHT! And I also like the zombie thing - especially The Walking Dead. But I will also say I am a little tired of the gross depiction of carnage it and other of the genre depict.

Am I alone in fearing that the best of iZombie is over?

[Terry37]

OK, I had to go and watch Hot Fuzz tonight and I am still laughing! Yes, to me much more enjoyable than Shaun of the Dead. But then what's not to like about dressing up as cowboys and shooting guns!!!



Oh, and I'm now thinking about moving to Sandford!!!!

Lord knows what effect Welsh ponies must have on him!

Not as bad as Aztec ones !

I would like to see a bit of the story of Pendraken over those 25 years.

Leon, 25 years ago looking youthful and unblemished, and today looking youthful and unblemished. Dave 25 years ago, looking fit and healthy and today ... where my copy of Dorian Gray?

Techno, in his Chelsea boots, flares and Wrangler jacket ... and 25 years ago ...

A team photo would be nice. We've been promised one for ages. Unless, of course, everyone has ticked the "no publicity" box.

Some idea on how technology has changed over the past 25 years (4 marks), and what has remained unchanged (3 marks).

Best moment and worst mo ... no belay that last.

Where will Pendraken be in 25 years?

Just general stuff like that.

TBH I'd prefer that to a sale. In the grand scheme of things the metal men are not expensive, and I'm unlikely to change my purchasing patterns (erratic though they are) because of one. Seems a good way to get extra work for less money.  

What about a prize draw? For every order over £10 in July, you get an entry. Winner gets a £100 voucher. 2nd prize is £100 voucher and a signed photo of Leon playing XBox. 3rd prize is £100 voucher and Leon comes to your house to play XBox.

I don't have an Xbox! 😱

[toxicpixie]

You'll just have to get one, then!

They're a good bit of kit, much like Pendrakens mini-men

[fsn]

I think if Leon can transport 10,000 miniatures to Salute, he can get an XBox to Lemmey's.

[toxicpixie]

The question is, does he want to?!
