look around, you might get lucky, I found one a few months ago on the rack at my FLGS for 3.99

I got lucky and found mine in a clearance bin for 1.99. I'm going figure hunting this weekend and I'll keep my eye out and let you know if I find one.

We sell OOP Reaper Minis, too. :;):

That said, there's a difference between "OOP" mins and "We don't make that one any more." I'm not sure we even have the molds for that one any more.

Miniature Giant listing that figure as out of stock is fairly disingenuous. It's unlikely they're ever going to find it again unless they're sniping eBay auctions and turning around and selling an originally $3 mini for $40.

Airsoftlover, I wish you the best of luck finding that one. eBay may be an option for you if masterofnone comes up short.

thanks kit. ebay has always been my number 1 go to for a long time. i just bought two doom minis (baron of hell, pinky) for $10 with $5 shipping for both (total $7.50 per mini!). i also got a baron of hell a long time ago on ebay for $5 with free shipping, and a cyberdemon for $20 free shipping, and a pinky a while ago fro $10 - $2 shipping. i am always on ebay every day. i found those great reaper deals by purposely mispelling the names several ways. baron of hell was titled "baron of heff" so i won it for so cheap because no one else saw the auction.

and it is to my understanding reaper doom minis are extremely rare, so hopefully my luck drags on to this astral mauler!

I see the D&D Blood Wars Ethereal Marauder around a lot, but I never see the Reaper version.

My understanding, correct me if I'm wrong, Reaper doesn't produce this bad boy because it was extremely costly to make, kept tearing apart molds as it was being cast. That being said, I'm sure if the Mauler would have been a real success we would have it resculpted, so I'm guessing Reaper didn't see huge sales from the original Mauler, but that is speculation. Very cool looking model though.
There's nothing I wouldn't do to win. But I never hurt anyone for any reason other than sticking a dog's skull on a stake.

I unfortunately didn't find anything for you this weekend Airsoftlover but I talked to a store owner I know that is going to check with the couple of places he gets mini's through and if he comes up with any he'll let me know.

well, IMHO the official plastic Ethereal marauder mini is fairly decent, so you are not totally SOL. Good luck finding the metal mini.
