I can see the potential for ancients CoC figs...
What were they studying in Alexandra?
Who knows what Cleopatra was up to with those snakes? And did Bastet mind?
Is Quetzlcoatl really Nyarlathotep?
What really caused Plato's Pompeii to fall?
Did the evils of the ocean have anything to do with the disappearance of Atlantis?
And what was Archimedes really doing in his tub of water?
Were there other kinds of "fishermen" in the Sea of Galilea?
What tales could Lazerus tell of his death experience?

Agreed.  I don't think the range would need new 'human' figures, just some variations on existing monster miniatures.  Such as Greek fishermen with the Innsmouth look, or a moldering corpse wearing a fine senatorial toga.  The monsters wouldn't have to be specific to the Mythos really, just having a line of Ancient Horror miniatures would be enough.

Would be fun to play, but I doubt I'd invest in new minis for it. Personally I'd probably just make due with using the ancients I already have.

What really caused Plato's Pompeii (cough, Atlantis, Plato knew nothing of Pompeii) to fall?
Did the evils of the ocean have anything to do with the disappearance of Atlantis?...
