Just noticed this on the eurocollections facebook page "Something DEADLY this way comes...July 3, 2012" Thought I was getting a scoop but looking at this thread I'm way behind haha Some interesting guesses as to what it is You think they'll do another spider?
Too funny! I wish they had stopped the series at four coins. The thrill is gone. I'm debating whether to sell my set or buy the next coin when it comes out.
Maybe the new Deadly and Dangerous coin will be a.... Dragon. LOL, too many dragons this year that I won't be surprised Alex.
It does appear as though the new Deadly & Dangerous coin will be the Funnel Web Spider...

Just picked up one from Talisman. They're available at Eurocollection too. Hopefully this is the last of series as this is becoming an expensive habit!
The Funnel Web Spider is not the last coin in the series.... There will be another release in 2013. any guesses as to the next release? Taipan? Stone Fish?? Tiger Snake???
I'm betting on it being 'the hotdog' the most common cause of food related choking deaths in this country. Did you know that last year in Australia more peopled died from choking on hotdogs than from lightsaber accidents?
