Most of them have been posted but the Gestapo and Bowery kids are new. And lovely.

On a side note, does Bob Murch frequent this place? Anyone know?

The chap with the Broomie and the stripey top is already on my painting table, Grimmbo. He's about half-done. He's going to join the crew of my Austro-Hungarian U-Boat.

Already planning on getting the guns, crew, Sons of Empire pack and possibly the Russians at Trumpeter Salute con next week, a run on Bob's Pulp Figures booth will likely be the most expensive part of the weekend!

The fencer is awesome! Just what I've been looking for!

Anyone know of any male fencers?

The new stuff from Bob is terrific. Can't wait to see the whole Gestapo set.

Maybe someone should invite him to join ?

If you'v ebeen in contact with Bob you seem to end up on a mailing list which means you get sent information about his new stuff before it goes up on the site.
 I'd be suprised if he isn't out there ...somewhere... watching us.

I have seen Bob make comments on TMP.
Maybe he is lurking here or maybe he doesnt know about LAF?

These are great as usual.  I've been meaning to pick up some of the Pulp figures for years.  How do they size up with Copplestone or other manufacturers? Are they "true" 25's?  Anybody have some comparison shots?

They're 28mm, not 25mm. Pulp Figures match up very well with Copplestone; they're slightly larger than Artizan but not much. Brigade Games & Great War Miniatures figures both match well too, in my experience.

From Pulp Figures own FAQ (http://pulpfigures.com/faq.php):
Quote
Q:Are these miniatures size compatible with.......?

A: 28mm Pulp Figures are sculpted to be compatible with the most popular historical miniatures ranges now on the market. They tend to be a bit smaller than the large 30mm fantasy and Sci-fi sculpts currently found in most gaming stores. They are larger than the old 25mm fantasy and historical sculpts popular in the 1980s.

They are nicely compatible with Mark Copplestone's famous 'Darkest Africa' series, slightly larger and more beefy but still compatible with my own 'Call of Cthulhu' and 'Space 1889' work.

Figure height will deliberately vary at times. Heroes and personalities will often be slightly larger than regular soldier and civilian figures.

I've got lots of photos of my Pulp Figures minis, lots of pics of my stuff from other manufacturers, but apparently none with a mix in them. Will have to shoot some... actually, that reminds me I was going to take some comparision shots like that as a review of Blue Moon's pulp-era miniatures. Another project, just what I need.

I like this new StahlMasks pose better than the original one.
He looks more like a leader with a luger than with the mp40.

I agree with you Almaric - much more the leader, still StahlMasks has got to be one of my all time favorite figures!  I still haven't used him in a game.  Saving his "entrance" for something really special.

Cool.

I always think leader types need to have some sort of presence. The older pose lacked some of that I think, because of his slightly static pose.
