Title: Jeff Valent Deadlands Figs
Post by: thebinmann on February 25, 2010, 08:44:48 PM
Has anyone got or seen the human bombs, steam jacks or steam turtles?

Thanks

Are the Steamjacks the guys with chainsaws? I assume they are, if so I have some I could get a photo of.

The human bomb is a guy in a running pose with dynamite round his waist I think, I've seen a pic, I'll see if I can find one. The turtles are domes of metal sith a pipe on the back and a gun sticking out the front.

The human bombs, isn't that the five-figure pack with chinese running around with dynamite strapped to their bodies? If so, they are good models (three poses only though).

Where are his "Famites", those crazed, plague/zombie type figures?

I can't find them anymore.

Possibly one of the all time great sets in terms of versatility.


I have two sets, got them back in the the Rail Wars site days, but its not enough, as they are perfect for any genre, modern, historical zombies, Innsmouth Marsh clan, anythwhere you need 'em.

How much bigger than 28mm are they?
Title: Re: Jeff Valent Deadlands Figs
Post by: Dewbakuk on March 06, 2010, 09:44:46 PM
Early ones are far bigger, later ones are absolutely fine. I'll do some comparison pics tomorrow.

I did the comparison pics, not had time to make a thread though. I'll do one while my daughter is asleep later if possible. To just see pics without names etc they can be seen here

And the DSC00326 zombie is too, isn't it?  It's just the steam jacks look smaller, and as they are "big guys" I think there are near perfect

Yeah, actually in the second pic only the centre guy is from the box, the two lady's are from the witches set and mix fine. 328 has some figs from the box. I think they were scouts or some such.

Its a big relief, as there are a few figures I'd like to pick!

Can you get these figures anymore?   (the ones mentioned and others in the series?) My link to jeff Valient is no good anymore, or something else is wrong.  I used to get them from Monday   but they aren't there anymore :'(


BTW, the dead gunsliger (that "ghost rider" lookin' figure, fanning a pistol) is sooooo big.  And he won't fit on a 1" base.   :(

Svenn, is that you in your avatar (too small to tell, but it resembles Peter Frampton in the 70's, if he had a Les Paul, I mean)  ;)

Yay Binmar!      They even have my much beloved "famites"!!!!


Been looking for those guys for years!   Yesssssss!



Thanks so much!  (CoC, Chaos in Cairo, "Scary Monsters Gutshot", "SATF Horror"    just got a lot better!  I have been using generically painted famites for so long, cause I couldn't find enough.)

Post by: Smokeyrone on March 08, 2010, 10:52:16 PM
"Get list"?  what is that?  Where is it?   


I have many CiC figs, the old "Chaos in Cairo" figures, the newer, Blue Moon Mummy set,  and   various pulp figures mixed in (RAFM, Pulp Fugures, Copplestone, Brigade, etc.)  I als have some colinial figures that fit in perfectly to any "Chaos"  setting.

That reminds me, does "CiC" mean chaos in "Carpathia" or "Cairo" to you?

Thank you Binman. Are you wheelie a binman? (wheeliebin man?) ::)

I remember the female huckster - thats a nice mini and I like the turtles. The bombers are a bit bomby for me but I am going to have to look out for the sorceror as he would come in handy in Svenns Orient.

For some strange reason I like him tto, simple yet good!

Ooh, nice pics, Binman.

The Female Huckster  :-*  (I wish I was 34mm tall)   lol

Are the steam turtles amphibious?  Looks like that one guy is horizontal, swimming or wading?

(What do you have to roll to right oneself if your turtle is on it's back?  lol)


I must get the Chinese sorcerer, and that female mad scientist looks straight out of "Frankensein's Daughter" (that bad Western)
