I love the post-apocalyptic fisherman. With a replaced shotgun he would be an ideal inhabitant of Innsmouth.  :)

This is another gorgeous range. LAM are turning all these quality figures out so quickly, I'm starting to wonder if there was a pact signed at the crossroads.........

Love the captain, not quite sure about the fishy swordsman, but the guy with the gaff is great again. Quite tempting, although I can't shake the mental image of them running in terror from a giant mutated Spongebob... ;) lol

Like 'em all, but have to say that the fellow with the boat hook/harpoon (I suspect you could use it as either) is my favorite. I could easily see these becoming part of my post-apoc collection.

Slide action shotguns have been around a while, 1893 was the year Winchester introduced their first. Interestingly the early models also had no trigger disconnect, so you could just hold the trigger down and it would fire as quick as you could cycle the action.

Looking like another fine set of figures... I have to admit that I'm not keen on the 'swordsman' either though. Maybe a cutlass or a hand hook... but a sawfish's* bill?

Actually chaps as Prof says,the weapon depicted on the sword and shield chap is from a Sawfish a type of shark,it is an bottom feeder and uses it's saw like bill to disturb crabs et cetera, to eat. The Swordfish is a pelagic fish similar to a Marlin and has a rapier like bill.

 Sorry for being an pedant.

 Oh and I like him :)

Ammo is rare in the post-apocalyptic future  :)

I completely agree! And apart from Ramshackle most miniature lines (yet) have missed this point.

Good looking fishermen (well bad looking, but good!)
