Pit Fighter Nibbles Custom Munny by Huck Gee

Earlier this week, Huck Gee announced the release of a second hand painted custom Lance Corporal Nibbles Munny. This Friday, April 16th, sees the release of Pit Fighter Nibbles, which is a prequel of sorts to the UTCMC Dread Squad member we met last month.

Pit Fighter Nibbles Custom Munny 10 Figure Set by Huck Gee
Long before he joined the Dread Squad, Nibbles was a renowned pit fighter on his home planet of Naoya 13, born into the interspecies favelas of Taurenos, the sprawling industrial port city. He survived the brutal street life as much with his wits as with his muscle, playing his foes against one another like an elaborate game of chess. His natural born skills and savage upbringing made him a perfect fit for the underground pit fighting circuit. He flourished, against all odds, climbing his way to the top of the heap and into the legends of underground fame.

But as is bound to happen, no matter how many steps he tried to stay ahead of his enemies, his luck eventually ran out. Nibbles crossed one person too many and found himself hunted down by the elite military police, jailed in a maximum security isolation wing, and staring down the barrel of politico assassination allegations. He most likely would've perished there if not for Sgt. Vasquez stumbling across him and offering him the opportunity of a new life as a member of the UTCMC Dread Squad...but that story is for another day.
