On a better note, I was able to get the Slann mage priest mini I wanted, now it is still the model expensive mini I have bought since getting back into hobby. But was still only half the price of the current Slann mage priest! Now all I have to do is work out how I want to paint it!

As it is a resin one I am guessing is a later one, as I think the earlier versions of this mini were metal?
