Another lot of figs I picked up, not sure what they are. Any pointers?







Any help is appreciated.

The last picture is a Grenadier Deep One.

No idea what the first two are but I'm pretty sure they are not cthuloid monsters by Grenadier, Magic Metal or RAFM.

Thx, looking at the bases the first 2 are from the same range, but the inscriptions are so faint they are impossible to make out.

The second fig as a copyright C, 82, P - a number I think.

Maybe that helps.

@Hammer, keep that up and Ill start calling you MC Hammer soon...... also a 'joker'  :lol:

I can't help it. It's a condition. Akin to coprolalia, really.

The first 2 are Grenadier from a Demons set. The third is indeed a deep one from the CoC range from Grenadier again.

They haven't been made for years
They were all drawn to the Keep; the soldiers who brought death; the father and daughter fighting for life; the people who have always feared it; and the one man who knows its secret....

EM-4 is slowly re-releasing some of the old Grenadier Cthulhu range:

There are rumours Mirliton (who got the Fantasy Warriors moulds too) areplanning to bring the figures back as well.

Were some of the "Dunwich Detectives" also released as a part of Grenadier's Cthulhu range? I thought they were only from Metal Magic.

"Uh, I better look in the manual... This book must be out of date. I don't see "Prussia", "Siam" or "autogyro"...
