This superbly detailed 28mm mini shows an orc off to the expo, dice in hand and a back pack full of gaming essentials.
Also on sale at UKGE Merchandise stand A3.
Note the miniature comes unpainted. But we have you covered - read on.

Win a copy of Pandemic – Reign of Cthulhu.

Instead of curing diseases like in the ground-breaking original Pandemic, players have to work together to seal portals and shut down cults in the classic New England fictional towns of Arkham, Dunwich, Innsmouth, and Kingsport. Can you and your fellow investigators manage to find and seal every portal in time? Hurry before you lose yourself to insanity and the evil that lurks beneath your feet...
Z-Man and UKGE have arranged for a limited number of copies to be available for the UKGE, 2 months before the official release at GenCon. These will not be available on general sale however. Due to anticipated interest UKGE will be raffling the limited copies available.
