The "naughty" Sophie being refered to was Werner's original version of this Sophie:

However, she had, umm... substantially less clothing (and for a mini that is barely clothed as is...). Anyway, there were a number of the bodies for this in the Boneyard area, and a number of people picked them up during the con.

From what I heard at ReaperCon, Ed Pugh learned that a couple of nekkid Sophies had sold on Ebay for $100 or so, and he basically said the equivalent of "bugger that" and went into the back and personally cast a whole bunch of them to sell at $17. I'm not 100% sure on the accuracy of this story (apart from the facts that he did cast them and they were sold for $17.20).

You pretty much have the story correct.

 

I am the one who went up to Ed and asked him about making the nekkid Sophie available. (I had thought the nekkid Sophie was a miniatures Urban Legend until I saw the one on ebay and got outbid at over $100. I've heard rumors that one sold in a non-ebay private sale for even more than the ebay one). Rather than letting it only be available on the minis black market, he cast them up to make them available for the Reaper fans. I'm very glad he did (I bought a few of them).

 

It was one more example of why Reaper is such a great company. BTW-the nekkid Sophies were sold by weight at RCon (and as a result were slightly cheaper than the blister pack clothed ones).

Heh, with all the demand for the nekkid Sophie, I can just imagine Reaper selling them in a blister pack that's been spray-painted black so you can't see inside, maybe with a big ol' "CENSORED" stamped on it. ::D:

Or sell them in normal packaging with black tape over the naughty bits. :lol:

hopefully Ed will do that for next year's Rcon, gotta get me one of those, then all I'll be missing is the 1st rcon sophie.

 

then again still need to pick up a couple of the bigger ones as well (ha ha)

 

but special edtion-wise...

Just my two cents, but I seem to recall that we did not release the naughty Sophie originally because she is definately not Family Friendly and is extremely explicit. In short, as far as I know she won't be released because this is not the sort of product Reaper wishes to be famous for producing.

ok, so she probably won't be showing up as a special edition. How about doing what was done at the Con. Making the body available through the boneyard and allowing people to order it that way. Mainly it's the diehard painter/collectors that buy bitz to convert stuff, not the kids. You don't even have to post a pic of it online. Just label it as a mature theme mini, we'll know which one your referring to.
