Make that early 90's before 4th edition ruined it for everyone ;)

I'm glad they are thinking of doing towns folk again but these are meh to me. Far better they buy Igor's sculpts off his talented hands or re-release the marauder townsfolk and traveling players.

I really like them! They are the best stuff I have seen from GW in a long time and will most likely be my first purchase in a long time now. They are awesome for Mordheim.
I love me some cool merchant model and these are so Warhammer Roleplay.

Much as has been said before - not bad but price will probably put me off.

Quite like the merchant/mayor fellow though.

The bear reminds of one of the Yeti off Dr Who! Think its the pose more than anything...

If not looking at the GW tag: Some nice miniatures for fantasy adventure games. The bear and his handler would make a lovely vignette for Stephen Maturin and Jack Aubrey travelling through Spain. ;)

£27.50 for 6 figures is steep, though.............

Hm... maybe that's it. They're too "perfect", like silicone stuffed "glamour models".

What's wrong with those???  :D

I quite like the duellists, especially the pistolier, he looks like a nasty piece of work. If they were sold individually I'd be pretty interested. The other ones don't grab me, but maybe if I saw them looking a bit muckier I'd change my tune. (In my mind's eye everything in Warhammer is at least a bit grimy.)

Too far from Denmark to justify going half in on an order mate.  :(

I'm in the UK.

I have to say I really quite like all of them, with the fellow with the pistols being my favorite.  I think the heavy shading on the flesh doesn't do them any favors, though.

I hope GW releases more figures in this range.  They are great for RPGs (and Mordheim).
