I was actually thinking Captain Jack Harkness in his Torchwood days.

Beautiful figs. Have to save up for another order. \

These are great Dylan!

(Oh my aching wallet!)



This chap looks a bit like David Tennant as the Doctor!


I had the same thought. Wish there was a painted photo to see the detail better.


He looks like the chap from the enigma code film at Bletchly

There was a character called the Crowman in an old British kids' TV show called "Wurzel Gummidge" about a living scarecrow.

The Crowman looked a bit like that figure, though I don't remember him carrying a sickle.

Of course, I may be totally barking up the wrong tree.

Correct tree :-)   Although the crowman in Wurzel Gummidge didn't have a sickle, he was the 'inspiration' behind this figure.
Mike's also got a half finished    figure of a scarecrow on it's wooden cross. Except there's obviously a real man  under the costume, with bulging eyes behind the mask :-)  (For anyone who knows it, think of the scarecrow in The League of Gentlemen!)

Oh, and we're a bit disappointed that nobody has spotted where we got some of the names for this last batch from.      No hints, see what you guys can find :-)

Eliza Stone is from Sharon Stone in "The Quick and The Dead"

Lt. Shab is shabby looking homicide detective Lt Columbo.

Not sure on this one but is Reeves the Butler is from Mortimer the Butler, via comedy duo Reeves and Mortimer?

Aaaarrrrgghhh! That was a truly disturbing & hilarious episode, when the two  little girls had that poor chap imprisoned in that scarecrow  :lol:

Fantastic - I can't wait to see that figure!

Dylan, you could have started a whole new trend in bizarre wargames - now, we need a Papa Lazarou, a Hilary Briss & of course Edward & Tubbs  :lol:  :lol:
