Hello everybody! I'm Jorge, one of the creators of Legion Miniatures. This morning we woke up and saw the small controversy that our Malekith figure has caused in Facebook and we wanted to clarify our point of view.

Last week we inaugurated a new section in our Patreon called "Madame Web's office" dedicated to show works that we will have in the future. Yesterday we showed a Malekith figure mounted on a winged tiger and that's where the controversy comes from. This figure, as we said, will be available in the near but undefined future.

We are players and except for some boxes we didn't like, the 4 members of the team have all the official releases. We started creating miniatures for ourselves that either didn't exist in the official game or we didn't like the official one and in the end it became a Patreon. We try to keep a low percentage of miniatures already released by AMG to have more variety and because we don't want to harm AMG and its community, of which we are part. We saw the Malekith figure and we really fell in love with it and wanted to create our own version.

At the same time we don't want to harm any of the other creators and that's why we usually leave 1 or 2 months to publish our own version unless it's something we already had announced. In this last case, we want to clarify that although the creators of C27 announced yesterday that they will bring a Gorr figure in July, we had it announced in our Patreon a fortnight ago and in no case we wanted to overlap or cover the release of C27.

We just wanted to make it clear that our intention is never to harm AMG or the rest of the creators of this community but to complement their work and form a wider community than it was originally.

We hope this has cleared up all your doubts and if not, here you have the comments to express yours.

Thanks for the statement. It was well written. We all appreciate the work your team is doing and understand that it is a challenge to companies who pay rights for IP such as AMG. I go to conventions and book shows all the time and see countless examples of fan art in tribute to their favourite characters for sale. Continue with offering us variety to our love of the genre.

I think some crossover and duplication is unavoidable. I think y’all are doing as good a job of possible at keeping it to a minimum.

I am such a bigger fan of you folks now. This was the perfect way to respond and put a community first. Customer loyalty created from controversy! ACHIEVEMENT UNLOCKED!

Multiverse of madness, i NEED them all :) But just as Kyle Foster said, it is unavoidable.
