===
Please DO NOT suggest the addition of Black Cat Bases at this time.
They do have a fair quantity of pulp or pulp-related figures, yes, but they have had SEVERE issues with order fulfillment, with some orders being held up for more than two years, during which time they were quite happy to remain open, continuing all the while to accept orders and money without sending anything at all.
While it seems things have been improved more recently with Black Cat Bases, with long-forgotten orders finally sent out and new orders being fulfilled and in a timely fashion, they will not be added to the list as a regular manufacturer at this time. Orders placed with BCB should be at your own risk and you should be EXTREMELY prepared to demand a refund through PayPal or your credit card company if you do choose to order through them.
If at a future date it becomes clear that they are once again a reliable supplier as demonstrated by a sustained period of good behaviour and that all past outstanding orders have well and truly been made good, then I will consider adding them as a normal manufacturer.
For further gruesome details or more up-to-date information, please see this thread: http://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=59375.0

I probably have a broader idea of "pulp" than some other folks, but I'd add --
Hinterland -- Jason has a nice pack of "Pulp Characters"
Blue Moon
Hydra -- Got to love those retro-sci-fi figs
Eureka
Crooked Dice
Tin Man
Northstar
Hasslefree
-
Blue Moon! That was the one I was groping around trying to remember!
Should have had Hasslefree, Eureka, and Tin Man too (hell, I've even bought stuff from Tin man before).
-
This is great - need a list for all those pulp types as this likely to be a feature of the shed for next year..
cheers
-
Updated with URLs.
-
Oh, what about including a section for 15-18mm figures?
Rebel Minis and Splintered Light come to mind, but I know there must be more.
-
I think a lot of the above have a few smaller lines too. Not sure which ones, though.
-
MODS - what about this as a sticky?
-
Added Khurasan.
-
I will have some myself soon.
Hooded villains will be first up.
They are at the casters right now.

Gripping Beast has a small selection of suitably Pulp figures.

-
Empress have lots of useful figures too.

Added Empress and Gripping Beast.
Mason, you don't have a website, do you?

Mason, you don't have a website, do you?
Not yet, but I will update the bloglink once the castings come back and I can take some pics of them.
I will let you know when that is done.
:)
-
Irregular Miniature 28mm British Home Service, World War I, A Very British Civil War and others very chip miniatures
-
Good list. Sergeant Major Miniatures http://www.sgmm.biz/Pulp_c_57.html and Tiger Miniatures http://www.tigerminiatures.co.uk/page13.htm each have some figures that would work for interwar pulp.
How do you define pulp? If you include ERB-style interplanetary romance, you can consider Bronze Age miniatures as well.http://www.bronzeagemin.com/miniatures_html/32MM/SCI-FI/sci-fi28mm.htm
-
Added Irregular, Tiger, and Sergeant Major.
Sadly, Irregular Miniatures has almost no pictures of their minis.
-
There really aren't enough figures on the site to merit an entry on the list, but I did want to mention that the three sci-fi non-coms from CP Minis 28mm Sci-Fi line would make some great Pulp mechanics: http://www.cpmodelsminiatures.co.uk/CP%20MODELS%2028MM%20SCI-FI%20NON-COMS.htm
-
Killer B Games for all your Pulp Sci-Fi needs.

-
Sadly, Irregular Miniatures has almost no pictures of their minis.
Sorry, but you can see picture of all "A very British Civil War" miniatures, and almost every mini you can use for pulp have picture ...
-
Where?
I click on 28mm, then I click on the VBCW figures in the sidebar, then you see a list, but only a few have pictures, and you have to scroll down to see them.
-

Every code is one figure, and all of them could be found on the pictures. Like ABCW1 Policeman firing rifle is the third one in the first picture of painted policeman.
-
Where?
I click on 28mm, then I click on the VBCW figures in the sidebar, then you see a list, but only a few have pictures, and you have to scroll down to see them.
the first picture is ABCW1-4, 4 minitures.
second picture is ABCW 5 - 10: you have two variant of ABCW 5 and one variant of all the others, of course you can choose the different weapon but miniature with open hand is the same. ABCW 9 and 10 have 2 variants, but I think is a different head or a different position of left arm.
3rd,4th and 5th picture are ABCW 11 - 17. No variants.
Only ABCW 18 do not have a picture.
-
I've sent a PM to Hammers asking if he can pin this.
-
Added Askari Miniatures.
-
Thank you for providing this, sir. I'm new to pulp so this source list is quite useful.

-
Added http://www.musketeer-miniatures.com/index.php
Also referenced Mutton Chop for the Empress entry.
-
Many thanks to Hammers for putting up with my pestering to pin the thread! :D
-
Added Fenris, RAFM, and Spartan Games.
-
Anyone tried Black Cat Bases (http://blackcatbases.com/ (http://blackcatbases.com/))?
They have a very nice looking HP Lovecraft.

Read this thread before even considering placing an order with them - http://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=59375.0 (http://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=59375.0)

Lead Adventures has the best-looking HP Lovecraft anyway! :D
-
Oh, I suppose you could add Pulp Alley to the list now? :D

Well, I have Andrew's site on there already, but I should certainly mention that your site carries the line in the US.

if I might suggest adding:
Harwood Hobbies:

Edit: My wretched typing
-
Sure! Updated.
-
Always interested in finding new Pulp (or Pulpy) miniature ranges.
I would like to suggest a couple manufacturers for this thread.
The folks at Gorgon studios have a set of Prohibition era cops and crooks.
http://www.gorgon-studios.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=15
Steve Barber Models have some prehistoric critters and gangsters and G-men.
http://stevebarbermodels.com/
I guess I'm not the first to suggest Black Cat Bases, but they deserve a second mention.
http://blackcatbases.com/
Black Army Productions has a number of Pulpy figs under their Champions of History line or their Shanghai 1930 figs.
http://www.blackarmyproductions.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=featured&Itemid=464
Tengu Models has some spectacularly nasty Lovecraft material.
http://www.tengumodels.co.uk/index.htm
Warlord Games, under their Bolt-Action line, have some excellent WWII 28mm military vehicles and planes.
http://us-store.warlordgames.com/collections/bolt-action
Miriliton SG has some of the old Grenadier Call of Cthulhu Minis
http://www.mirliton.it/index.php?cPath=990
And em4 Miniatures has a line called Dunwich Detectives (also for Cthulhu) that provides a few Pulpy protagonists and critters.
http://www.em4miniatures.com/acatalog/Dunwich_Detectives.html
There. That should cover my posting requirements as a new member.

There. That should cover my posting requirements as a new member.
An excellent way to introduce yourself! Welcome to LAF, we're all crazy here but nobody bites.
There is an Introductions (http://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?board=28.0) forum, the done thing is usually to wander in there and "formally" say hello, but it's not a hard and fast rule!
I was going to add Statuesque Miniatures - http://statuesqueminiatures.co.uk/ - to the list, new but a slowly expanding range of pulp-flavoured good stuff, and they're the UK stockist of the Pulp Alley rules too.
-
Statuesque is already on the list. :D
I've added most of Lancy's suggestions. Black Cat will have to show a bit longer of a period of good behaviour before I'd feel comfortable recommending them to anyone.
-
Pardon me, Mr. FramFramson,
If it's not telling tales out of school, I'd like to know what problems you have experienced with Black Cat Bases, or what feedback you've gotten from their customers. I've never ordered from them and I'd really like to be for-warned about any less-than-professional behavior.
Is there a thread on this site for posting about poor customer service?
And it's Glancy, by the way.
A. Scott Glancy
-
Ah! Good to know.
As for Black Cat, you can read about the whys and wherefores here: http://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=59375.0
The short version is that they had an eight-month period where they just... didn't fill any orders. They seemed to eventually start shipping things again, and tried to make good with some coupons and the like, but as I understand it the owner is still having various troubles and there are still problems with recent orders and communications. To be frank I think at least for now you're still taking a big chance on orders from them.
-
Statuesque is already on the list. :D
Swear to Dog I skimmed the list before suggesting Statuesque, I did! ;D
And yes, given the recent issues BCB seems to be having, I'd agree with leaving them off the list for now. Pity, as they make a bunch of cool stuff...
-
Now, why haven't I seen this thread before?
NICE one. Just putting in a post to get updates. ;)
-
Wow.
That link to the thread on Black Cat Bases was an eye-opener.
When it comes to ordering online, it really pays to have sites like this one where the consumer can go to check out who they are dealing with. Even in a town the size of Seattle, there are very few retailers stocking the kinds of minis I want and I have to do all my business via the internet.
Most appreciated.
A. Scott Glancy
-
Has anyone considered using Model Railroad people in O Scale as a less expensive alternative for Pulp/Noir figures? I was thinking of looking into them.
-
I've looked at some on occasion, but they generally seem pretty bland. There's also the issue of their being "correctly" proportioned.
-
Fram,
Agreed, the proportions are different. I would consider using them rather than any wargame figures for a Noir type game. Some are indeed quite bland, others are much better.
Nick
-
Does anyone know if the Four Color Figs 'Superfigs' range has a distributor/seller in the UK?
-
Does anyone know if the Four Golor Figs 'Superfigs' range has a distributor/seller in the UK?
Don't think so - and it's a crying shame!
-
It used to be West Wind, but they only seem to stock the Supersystem rules now, not the figures.

Some of the other historical packs, such as the "Mehalla", and various ultramodern packs are quite suitable depending upon the scenario. All available from TableTopScale.com and Elheim Figures.

Those look great. :)
I'll add them as soon as I'm not posting from my phone.
EDIT: Added now. :)

It is a CRIME these aren't in THE One TRUE Pulp Scale: 28mm
Aren't there severe penalties for producing figures I want in a scale I cannot use that won't mix with those I already have?
If not, shouldn't there be?
Pardon me while I go rouse the multitudes for vengeance and retribution.
There's tar to simmer, feathers to gather, and rails to rough up...
[/rant]
Thank you Bill, I'm really sorry you showed me those....
Valerik
-
I do wish the fellow carrying the sack was in 28mm. Very nice!
-
Well, there are those that would argue that 20mm is the one true scale for WWII, Moderns, etc... That's what keeps this hobby interesting! Have you ever considered putting those 28mm metal fellows in really hot water and seeing if they would shrink down to 20mm? That could really expand the possibilities.
Curiosity mandates I ask how many other 20mm pulp enthusiasts are out there?
-
(http://www.blazeaway.com.au/BerbersTuaregsFirearms2.jpg)
Have you ever seen them? Lancashire Games sells them, are they OK for Pulp?

Latest releases from Force20 are French Resistance sets DS-07 Ambush! and DS-07b Maquis. DS-07 shown.
Lots of pulp possibilities.

Available from TableTopScale.com, Elhiem Figures, The Hobby Den, and SGMM.
-
I didn't see Dixon added to the list. They have many figures, especially in their Gangsters ranges which would be suitable.
-
May I nominate Forge of Ice?
If Lost Worlds are indeed Pulp, & I do believe so, then Alex Bates has it knocked!!
(https://fbcdn-sphotos-d-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-xfp1/v/t1.0-9/10981194_718656088232211_517212727626193101_n.jpg?oh=a0e1abfb83e5c3c38bd9092b8ede50aa&oe=558C567E&__gda__=1434591973_af8045de7e51b08b5f0c96fb04f00e1c)
(http://imageshack.com/a/img849/3193/qxqn.jpg)
A small but growing range with useful upcoming releases.
His primitive weapons sprues are very nice, as are his animals.
I've not tried the fantasy critters, or the dinosaurs, yet...
They should work even for those benighted heathens gaming 15/18/20mm.
Please include Alex & Forge of Ice, his work is good, & worthy.
Valerik
simply a satisfied customer

He certainly has enough, but I think he's still deciding on a portal for sales? Alex, for the time being, what URL should we use to refer people to your creations?

I actually have a storefront setup through Storenvy right now (set it up on Tuesday!), I just need to fill the stock and inventory. So, I've been doing inventory all week (I got a bunch of new stuff in!). I should have the store live, um... "soon"... :/
*EDIT* - yeah, that storefront never worked out. Still just taking orders directly via email or Facebook - www.Facebook.com/ForgeofIce
I'm commenting here so the thread will pop up again for me when I go looking for it ;)
I've always considered my stuff Lost World rather than Low Fantasy. It would certainly work for Low Fantasy - Conan the Barbarian would be right at home in Azor - but I think of it more like Tarzan' Opar, or Doc Savage's Thunder Island. I even might, on a day when I'm feeling frisky, compare it to the King of all Pulp Lost Worlds, Kong's Skull Island.
So, um, thanks for including me here! I'll post something when I've got the store up and running.
-
I put a complete so far list of 20 mm pulp figures. Mostly for myself, but some people find it useful:
1:72 / 20 mm pulp & weird world war 2 - complete ? list
http://umpapas.blogspot.com/2015/12/172-20-mm-pulp-weird-world-war-2.html
-
Great list Umpapa ;)

Ral Partha Europe are producing some old classics, including a bunch of stuff that used to be out of production.
Their "Pulp Adventure" line isn't that big, but they have a bunch of Pulpy stuff hidden away in their Fantasy range, as well as a very large amount of animals (including dinosaurs) and monsters. Some personal favorites of mine are their undead samurai and quite large amount of ninjas. Their resin Olmec ruins are also highly pulp.
http://www.ralparthaeurope.co.uk/
Also carry the old Crimson Skies models, if you want your pulp airborne, in a smaller scale and with weird wings.
I'm a bit surprised to not see Lucid Eye on that list, it's great stuff. Right now, it contains cavemen, Huastecs, apes with weapons, amazons, Atlanteans and some great solo miniatures, such as a female explorer and a properly sinister Nazi occultist. One of my favorite pulp ranges.
http://arcanesceneryandmodels.co.uk/product-category/lucid-eye/
-
Oh easily added. Frankly I thought Lucid Eye was on there already.
-
http://www.ralparthaeurope.co.uk/shop/ral-partha-fantasy-c-37/fantasy-adventurers-c-37_40/?sort=20a&page=1 Not counting monsters and animals, most of the relevant human models they make are found in this category. They have a couple of African characters, an Asian magician and like twelve different ninjas. Also a great source if you need pack animals (I like to use one of their donkeys as a Major Plot Point), dogs and other animal companions.
-
Reaper is already listed, but I wanted to note that they just got some new Pulp models. My favorite is the adventurer with the Egyptian sword, but the masked villains and the not-Solomon Kane are nice too.
-
What range are they from, please - cannot find them on Reaper's website... :?
-
http://www.reapermini.com/Miniatures/SavageWorlds/latest
Savage Worlds. They're also listed on the front page under new releases.
-
Thanks!

http://scarabminiatures.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=34
Project X is a "Weird World War II" range originally produced by North Star, now owned by Scarab Miniatures. It has all the standard models you will find in the many, many other WWWII miniature ranges that are out there (German werewolves, female Nazi officers, mad scientists, zombies and Allied power armor seem to be obligatory in these ranges), so there's nothing that's really unique, but they're well made and I enjoy their take on the power armour (they actually look like something built in the early 1940's, unlike a lot of other WW2 power armour), and the British zombie hunters with their patchwork armour and gas-masks are lovely. They also have an American officer who is delightfully, intentionally over-the-top. He looks as if he stepped right off the cover of a cheap pulp magazine. The German WWI veterans/deserters are nice too.

Project X is a "Weird World War II" range originally produced by North Star, now owned by Scarab Miniatures.
Note that these are 1/48 figures, and tower over most 28mm: not necessarily a problem for the monsters and armoured suits, of course.
-
I've actually picked up some of the Scarab figures and they are HUGE even by 1:48 measures - they're far larger than DUST figures or Tamiya, for instance, both of which are 1:48.
I think I wound up using a single figure, and was only able to do that because he's posed in a kneeling crouch, so it's not obvious how much bigger he is.
-
Weren't Project X produced by another small independent manufacturer even before North Star picked up the range?
I seem to recall that there was also a nice range of 28mm sized Buildings and such...?

Projekt X was always North Star, I think. Wessex Games was originally going to produce accompanying rules.
You may be thinking of Monolith Designs, which produced chunky 1/48 Weird WW2 figures for Jim Bowen's Graven Images. Monolith otherwise specialised (or specialises - I don't know if they are still going) in resin terrain.
-
Ah, OK, got them mixed up because of the scale. Couldn't imagine two separate ranges of Weird War stuff in 1/48. lol

Black Cat Bases are kind of all over the place when it comes to themes and eras, but they have plenty of models that fit perfectly into pulp, from Jazz age civilians and investigators (including models of real life icons like Lovecraft, Charles Fort and Betty Page) to mad scientists and retro robots. Also carry useful stuff like props, cultists, pirates, zombies, angry natives, pygmies and so on.

Not strictly figures, but The Honourable Lead Boiler Suit Company have a pretty large range of 28mm vehicles (mainly boats, both civilian and military) from the early 20th century. Also dinosaurs.
I would also like to note that it's a bit misleading that you list West Wind Productions as "more properly a WWWII line", when their horror line Vampire Wars is full of pulp. http://www.westwindproductions.co.uk/index.php?route=product/category&path=70
Some of the models suffer from short legs and long orangutan arms, though.
-
Black Cat Bases was and still is (as far as I know) having SEVERE issues with order fulfillment - some people having waited up to two years or more for orders to arrive. I would advise extreme caution before placing an order with them and be hair-trigger ready to demand a refund through PayPal. You can see the TWENTY-THREE PAGE LAF thread on BCB here: http://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=59375.330
In fairness, it appears that orders placed more recently have been mostly fulfilled in a timely manner, but until such time as they have re-established a strong track record over a more lengthy period of time, I will not be adding them to the list.
For West Wind, I can tweak the description. Done.

I did not know that, as I have yet to read every single thread in this forum's history. So no need for the angry all caps.

I very much doubt Fram was having a pop at you for not knowing or being angry.
My guess is he was just emphasising that it is a lengthy thread.
-
Yep, nothing angry directed at you Bug, sorry if you took that the wrong way. It's more that it's amazing how long that saga's gone on and how many LAF-ers have been burned.
The mods pinned the thread in an effort to keep as many eyes on the warning as possible, but not everyone visits the "Commercial" subforum, so it's catch as catch can.
Hell, not everyone reads all of this very thread (Black Cat Bases has been suggested several times previously and the issues with them are mentioned on pages 2 & 3, ITT ;) ). This tells me I should probably add some mention of them to the first post, so I will do just that!

The Blind Beggar Miniatures website is almost ready to go 'live'.
As we will be attending our first trade show on Sunday (SELWG 2016) the stock levels will be added next Monday to ensure that there are no conflicts of availability.
I have finished adding all of the Shop entries so you can take a peek now.
There is a Pulp section along with Sci-Fi, Old West and Mythos at the moment, with more to be added as time goes by.
http://blindbeggarminiatures.co.uk/shop
It is an ongoing WIP as articles will be added to the site over time, but for now it will launch with the Shop only.
Framframson: Would you mind altering the Blind Beggar entry in the OP when you get the time, as the old Blog entry is now obsolete (I cannot even remember the password for that to attempt to remove it... ::)).
Here are a few samples from the Shop:

If Your Highness doesn't mind, I found a nice line of 15mm Pulp by Rebel Miniatures. It's a rare scale for this genre.

Great catch. There's not many options for the smaller scales (I think we have one or two 20mm manufacturers listed, though 20mm players can at least supplement themselves thanks to all the 20mm WWII lines there are), so it's good to have those as an option!
Now I just need to adjust my crown, and I'll be set.
-
May i sugest the following manufacturer in 20mm?
http://www.bandbminiatures.co.uk/
B&B miniatures have a nice collection of miniatures suitable for Pulp mainly on their 20mm Frnech Foreign Legion.
Archaeologists, arab civilians, arab diggers, film crew, actor and actress, etc.
Also word exploring the Allanbys wars range and also German East Africa range.
-
If you want more 20mm, Elhiem also have a Pulp Adventures range: https://www.elhiem.co.uk/ourshop/cat_811856-Pulp-and-Horror-Adventure.html (https://www.elhiem.co.uk/ourshop/cat_811856-Pulp-and-Horror-Adventure.html) (scroll down for the good stuff)
Plus, they do some lovely WWII models. :P
-
Both added. Good to have more options for those who prefer the smaller scales.
-
2 pages earlier of this thread I have already put all 20 mm/1:72 pulp manufacturers list:
http://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=61108.60
-
So I didn't really want to just add all the WWI, WWII, SCW, etc. manufacturers to the list (since there are many and that would muddy the waters for anyone looking purely for pulp), but what I've done instead is to add most of the ones from your list that I didn't already have which sell genuinely pulp/gangsters figures. I also put the link in to your blog entry though, so that anyone who really wants a more in-depth list can check that out as well.
-
Surely Crucible Crush is on here somewhere?
-
Isn't their Cthulhu 28's line just repackaged miniatures from Bob Murch's Pulp Minis lines?
-
Quote from Bob Murch when I relayed your question to him: "Many of the Cthulhu 28s are converted Pulp Figures poses to be sure, though there are completely new sculpts as well. All figs, however, are new versions that differ from their Pulp Figures versions. Different heads, modified poses etc. They are meant to fit the familiar Lovecraftian investigator tropes. The deep ones are all 100% new though".
-
That's what I get for not looking very closely. You wouldn't have even needed to ask Bob - just comparing the two side by side makes it plain they're resculpts and modified variants. Added.
-
Awesome list,
Under Warlord Games you can add their savage core sets. Cave men, neanderthals, amazons, Simians, alantians, etc. very cool stuff.
https://us-store.warlordgames.com/collections/savage-core/
-
That's actually the Lucid Eye range, being sold under the Warlord badge. :)
-
I Think Black Cat Bases also should be included in the list.

Check the opening post in this thread for the reasons why Black Cat have not been added yet.

-
Not sure if these are on the list:
http://www.antediluvianminiatures.com/
Not many but they are good
-
Hm, thought they were on there already. Well, no worries, they're added now. And alphabetical order puts them right at the top of the list!
-
Late arrivals at the top of the list, that's just not cricket!

Cutting in the queue! Bad form! lol

Sally 4th now has a range of pulp era miniatures.
Our Classic Movie Miniatures range.

Just to update...
The Force20 pulps (20mm) you have listed under your 25-30mm stuff have been purchased and are being produced and retailed by the guys over at Covert Intervention Games.
Pretty certain Force20 miniatures are also sold at The Games Tavern in Virginia, and I think, still, by Elheim Figures in the UK.
-
Elheim actually has the full range and is already on the 20mm list. Covert Intervention only seems to have the WWII-oriented stuff, so I'll leave Elheim on as the distributor for Force 20.
Anyway, I removed the dead link to Force 20's original page (I should have deleted it earlier... just a cleanup oversight).
-
Pinup Girls for pulp.
Covert Intervention Games purchased the 20mm and 25mm Pinup Girls packs from Sgt. Majors Miniatures (SGMM) assets. I guess its likely those also will be available through Elheim.
-
Do you have a list of 15 mm Pulp figures? I have Rebel Miniatures and Blue Moon.
-
Yes, see the bottom of the list post. There is a section for 15-20mm manufacturers and Rebel Minis and Blue Moon are already on the list (though Blue Moon was only listed under 28s, so I've doubled it up just now)
-
What about http://khurasanminiatures.tripod.com/adventure.html (http://khurasanminiatures.tripod.com/adventure.html) ?

What about http://khurasanminiatures.tripod.com/adventure.html (http://khurasanminiatures.tripod.com/adventure.html) ?
What were you thinking of in their shop? The 15mm Cthulhu minis really are just pure Lovecraft without any Pulp, and the "70's Pulp" is really more Geezers than the sort of Pulp this subform's all about. Something else?
-
I'd leave Khurasan in as there's enough bits and pieces in the 15mm ranges that are Pulp Usable to warrant it.

IMHO they are Pulp miniatures.
-
Apparently Sgt Major Miniatures in the US have ceased trading? In any case their website has been claimed by a domain squatter using it for porn adverts, so uh, off the list! ::)
Just making a not here of the former description, in the the line turns up owned by someone else:
Sgt Major Miniatures - the Pulp section of their "Get Some!" line.
-
Never realized that Studio "Siberia" (one of the owners is the ever-resourceful Cuprum here on LAF) wasn't on the list so I added it. More BoB than Pulp, but the shop a fantastic resources for eastern Europe during the Interwar period, and BoB is pulpy in and of itself. Plus there are also many great and unique character sculpts!
http://siberia-miniatures.ru/

Would like to suggest my new line:
Pulp Miniatures: https://www.pulpminiatures.com - We Only Kill Each Other 28mm New York Gangsters of the 1920s - 1930s - Frank McGovern
Thanks,
Frank

Hopefully not bad form to nominate the company you work for?
Here at Modiphius we have a nice range of 28mm scale WW2 + Cthulhu minis in our Achtung! Cthulhu range. We've just released some shiny new toys in the form of Ariane (a french resistance fighter who has been adopted by a Mythos creature) and Singh (a Sikh officer fighting for the Brits whose tomb raiding larceny has cursed him) as well as some new Black Sun officers and a new unit box of Native American Demon Hunters.
Plenty of Mythos troops and gribble monsters as well as some dashing heroes, larger than life villains and some unusual troop types to take your historical forces into the weird.

Worth adding Langley Miniature Models. Vast range of 1/76th scale civilians/tradespeople/animals (and lots of expensive kits!) plus some soldiers - fills out the NPC aspect better than anyone else. Includes both painted and unpainted options. Caters mainly to the model railway hobby.
-
Sorry, didn't give link.
http://www.langley-models.co.uk/index.html
-
Are there pics available of the figures in raw metal? I have a couple of scenic items and a steam tractor from them which look much better than in the images, and it's quite difficult to judge the figures on the Langley website with their quarter-inch-thick paint jobs.
-
No, but a few on my blog plus a comparison to a few other figures. I was surprised at how nice they were when I bought some - their website certainly doesn't do them justice.
https://easterngarrison.blogspot.com/2019/08/langley-models.html
-
Hope you don't mind if I add my own small company to the list, we do figures for the Boxer Rebellion and many would be perfect for Pulp games [as a few of my customers have bought them for that purpose they have told me].
We have many character figures and will be adding more when we can so please pop over and have a look.
https://victoriousminiatures.com
Attached a couple of sample photos of those figures. all 28mm metal.

@FramFramson (and everyone else) I just saw where the old Sgt Majors 28mm Pulp Range (along with the 28mm Sci-fi and Monsters) has been purchased and is being re-released by Battle Valor Games. Went over to BVGs Facebook page and it appears to be true... he is running a crowdfunding special. Some good stuff there, Inuits and Eskimos, Wild West Bandits, Marauders, Cultists, etc...
