I just realized that the 2973 M.U. Expedition up the Mekong leech-creature could very well be the "Watcher in the Bayou" of Dwellers in Shadow (p. 7). 

The skinless-looking figure from 2952 The King in Yellow could be Nyarlathotep in his guise as the "Skinless One," of Horror on the Orient Express, Book Four (p. 2).

Hasslefree doesn't really make much in the way of props, but here's a sacrificial altar to note (and the demonette's quite pretty, too - can be bought with the altar):

Hydra miniatures makes this Saurian idol that could work as a the object of worship for a serpent man cult, or a centerpiece for some ruins.

That's definitely one to put on my list...

Browsing around on Hasslefree, I also found this little guy, who would make a great bronzed statue-lecturn for a cult.  Check out the skull-like face, and then picture the investigators coming up on it, discovering the lower jaw on the floor... (will have to get out the green stuff again...) and then a spot hidden shows the metal patina has flaked off, leaving real bone exposed... Only Narly knows what's written in that book - and why the jaw dropped off.

Oh yeah, one of those kind of figures!
Love the idea for that back-story.
Provides so much style.

I think Reaper has some figures of the same general outline (minion with book)
Let me see if I can fish them out...

Yep, here they are!

Not nearly as fitting to the concept as the hasselefree guy, but lovely in their possibilities all the same.

RAFM:
Unidentified RAFM Cthulhu bits: I have not been able to establish where the following items came from, but perhaps they came from older blisters of two of 2958 Proto-Shoggoth/2982 Shugoran/2934 Nyarlathotep/2935 Elder Thing (recent blisters of these show no inclusions). Anyone know where these came from?

The Skull Pile:




I have this skull pile in the Servitor of the Outer Gods blister (RAF2925).

I hope you do not mind but a couple of minor corrections


2923 Dimensional Shamblers (zoog):I believe this to be Brown Jenkin from "Dreams in the witch house"    



2941 Moon Beast (l'il moonbeast): This is an Insect from Shaggai




2947 Lesser Other God (l'il mi-go): I do not think this is right but not to sure what it is, can anyone help?



2970 M.U. Expedition to Egypt (mummy on fire, Egyptian obelisk - see merchant photo for humans):The mummy actually has tentacles bursting out
