Title: Bankers wars
Post by: argsilverson on 07 April 2009, 10:50:11 AM
Another find of today:

http://www.bearsdenminiatures.com/28mm%20Bankers.html

The best of the lot: http://www.bearsdenminiatures.com/bankers/bank2.html
attacking bankers suitable to hit customers!!!!!!!!



Most probably inspired by the recent times and the economic crisis we have nowdays [recession, G20 meeting, demonstations etc], but I think at least some of them awould be suitable for Pulp games, too!

A bit crude but nice idea, I sometimes think Bears Den need someone else to take their photos or black undercoat the figures.

Reminds me of the Monty Python sketch

Dead bankers would be more suitable - oops, little bit of politics

This is a great idea - very topical - but the sculpts look awful so no buyer here.   :?  Pity a better sculptor didn't think of it first.

Got to agree with OT about the sculpts, but it does put me in mind of the Crimson Permanent Insurance:

(The Accountancy Shanty is about 4 mins into Part 2!)
