They would have to have sidecars, and generic looking uniforms for head swaps.

 Okay, two packs, one with two motorbikes, one rider with both hands on the handlebars (for dispatch or escort duties) and one firing a pistol  ( for chasing the truck loaded with unobtainium with has just been stolen) and a pillion passenger that could be added to either 'bike and the other with one 'bike with a sidecar.

Okay, two packs, one with motorbikes by themselves and one with a sidecar mounted. Then packs of riders, Adventurers, police and various armies to fit.

Now I'll stew that over for a while and see if I can come up with anything else.

The new Dangerous Dames are great. Might have to add those to my list for when I see Bob at Trumpeter Salute in a few months!

I can see another order off to Canada in the New Year. I've almost finished painting the last lot - just some Gestapo to do as VBCW BUF "heavies".

That new pack is brilliant!!! I need it for my Strange Aeons list! Not that I'll have any figures left once my wife paws through them...I'd better just order two packs, to be safe.

I found them rather bland or even disappointing. And that's without taking their usual Eddie Izzardness in account as I've been accustomed to that from  Bob Murch.

Not my genre by a long shot but for minor character roles they are fine.  If you get outside the compulsion for museum quality figures (no, that doesn't excuse bad anatomy,) and remember all miniatures are all 3D game counters they should be fine.

There is (in my mind) a difference between the incredible work done from the "painters" such as on this site and the level of appearance necessary for game pieces.  Just saying...

Gracias,

Glenn

IMHO, Bob Murch's Pulp Figures are ones of the best on the market. Plus, they almost paint themself... almost :D

I don't know, i think this forum is quite different from CMON and such.  I don't think it is the painters which make this forum, but the gamers. I take some pride in  being a part of a forum with members which put together games which both looks good and you'd give up a kidney too play.

Looking great, as usual, Bob!

Bob Murch's sculpts all definitely have his own style on them, and are immediately recognisable as his work.
(which is a good thing)

Do you know what's weird?
I think that in each pack he does there's at least one figure I love, but conversely, there's always at least one figure I don't like.

Just saying,  :-I
