Mountaineers, yetis, Shangri-La and so on

I have just placed a suggestion in the Eureka Miniatures site's 100 club (http://www.eurekamin.com.au)

I would like some 28mm figures in mountain climbing gear from 1900-1945. Woollen clothes, big goggles, hemp rope, huge ice axes and so on. You don't actually need them in the cat of climbing but they would be sculpted as if on ledges, base camps and summits. Maybe old large format cameras and so on. They can do double duty as Polar explorers.

And let's face it, you need a thumping great climbing axe when a yeti appears in front of you.

Please show an interest in this small project as I have not seen anything much in this line other than a few unsatisfying Polar sets.

The HLBS Great White North range had some suitable figures, think the range has gone to Copplestone now.

Do we know if the the line of minis (some great stuff btw) will be making an appearance from Copplestone then?  I did not have the funds to purchase what I wanted from the only HLBS source I knew of (RLBPS in Indiana, USA) befoer the demise of the line.

Not Copplestone, but Tiger Miniatures:

Look for the packs of Mounties and Trappers in winter gear.
