Wasn't there a company doing a kickstarter for a Polynesian fantasy range? A quick Google search didn't turn anything up so maybe it didn't happen.

If it also had Mayan & Pacific Northwestern Native Americans, then I think it was Paymaster Games. They have a US eBay store and I think a stockist comes up if you google them.

Exact ! For the Warpath range. Great figurines indeed.
Could be used for inspiration too  ;)

Lovely figures, but those aren't the ones. Very strange. Maybe it wasn't funded.   ???

I backed a couple of Paymaster Kickstarters and own a box of their high-quality figures. Here is a link to their Ebay store and their current catalog:

https://www.ebay.com/str/paymastergames?fbclid=IwAR1b1pLaQ06NqQO2FlaEaiwjAyMN8Z_FbLr9GOOHsxBhB8cKUB2q6PqIqnE

From this link and from posts on Paymaster's Facebook page, I gather that many items that were produced for Kickstarters have gone OOP. What you see on Ebay is what you can order now. I see several sets of Hawaiian warriors, a toothy humanoid giant, a giant anthropomorphic gecko and a giant clam currently in production for Hawaiian subjects.

I gotta say, the sets of Northwest Pacific Coast Indian warriors that I received are highly multi-part for white metal castings. I think the Hawaiian warriors are the same. I got heads, torsos, separate arms, and a hip-leg unit. The design calls for a lot of drilling, pinning and gluing. There are some detail differences among the heads and torsos, and you can vary the poses to some degree, although there's only one angle of join that makes the torsos line up with the hips. I thought it was a lot of work for the result I wanted. The standard of modeling among LAF members is high, so maybe these Paymaster figure kits are just what you want to work with.

Um...there's a post on the Paymaster Facebook page from November 4, stating that Marc would be taking pre-orders for product from his most recently funded Kickstarter for *two days*, with a link to his 'pre-order store'. Some tasty stuff listed there, including Polynesian and Maori items not on the Ebay store. Might be worth exploring and IMing Marc, if you like the miniatures:

Thank you zippyfusenet for the informations about this range.

 ;)

As a collateral effect of this topic, i have started a new project for the......... Amazonian !  o_o o_o o_o
i have already for action a lot of painted Tupi warriors (Coppelstone ones) so i need only to create/find one God and some fun Legends.
So i have started tracking which ones could interest me. Like Mapinguari (a conversion is nearly finished), Lobisomem, etc....
i'm working too on an OGAM list to go with it.

a busy year is coming, i think  :?

Yes, now I see him, and he's looking great! I'm looking forward to seeing him finished and glowing.   :D

And your Maui choice is a fine one; do you plan to give him hair or will he stay bald? Could look good either way!

i  have started a new way to put hair on bald figurines.

1- Hot glue to give thickness.
2- then "No screws-No nails" Pattex glue, for designing hair (found in an Action store

excellent and easy way
