Mountain Climbers from Pulp Figures
« on: 19 December 2008, 04:45:55 AM »
Newly on the What's New page, Mountain Climbers:



Should be a good pack. 

For my part, I'd love to see another set of Istanbul Constabulary, or an obvious victim of their "ways of making you talk".  And how is it possible Pulp Figures doesn't yet have someone on a motorcycle?!  And, going back to an old thread, Bob really should have a band set.

Lovely characters, I'm looking forward to seeing the rest of the set.  :)

Pulp stuff can be a bit hit or miss for me, a bit too cartoony sometimes, but these guys are great.

They look great.

I've got a load of Pulp Figures mini's and I've also painted up a bunch as well.  Sometimes they can be a bear to paint, but if I could get them to change one bit of sculpting, it would be to level out the eyes a bit.  Many of their figures come out looking like Asians, not that that is bad, but not very realistic if the subject is US sailors.

So please, don't get me wrong.  I love this collection, have bought lots of their minis and will buy more in the future.

Hope they keep the new releases coming!

Nice ones!  Pulp Figures is one of those lines I wish I could get just about everything from.  The somewhat cartoony aspect I think works well besides other line like Copplestone's Back of Beyond and Artizan's Thrilling tales have cartoony aspects too.

Very nice and interesting figures.

They can be used for mountains, arctic exploration and even adding some guns for military use.

I would also like to see some more instanbul constabulary or better street characters for ME towns and of course a motorcycle with an instanbul constable on it!!!
