I'm pretty sure Nyarlathotep did it, great figures and funny setting. Parriah, those models look ancient! Very characterful, where (and when) are they from?

@ suspects
if it wasn't for the title this time, I would have thought, that the numbers were ment for the voters - to know where one tentacle end, and another begins  :D

That's a lot of sanity points to lose all at once lol

not related to voting, but the guy with the treasure chest on his back was the first mini I ever got.  30 years ago :o   

Nice to see someone still loves the old lead.

Thanx, I tried harder on these, but don't seem to be up to snuff yet.
 
To my fellow entrant, NICE! I like these better than any others that have squashed me flat so far!

They are all Pre 1985 TSR Grenadier official AD&D figs. The pony is from the LoTR set, The 2 guys w/ chest are from a set called adventurers, The one guy w/ chest on back is from set called dungeon crawlers, etc. I have said before, I still have all of the minis I ever bought, except a couple here and there who got lost somehow. But I repainted them for this contest.

I love the lovecraftian monsters, great work! Y'golonac is my favourite. The background is an interesting touch, too.

I remember that packtrain set from my AD&D days, and yes, thirty years ago is about right.   Wow.   Nice to see them again. 

So many tentacles .....

Thanks for the moments.
In fact the guilty is Paty Noarthel, guess who is it ?

@Parriah: I agree, good to see old minis. I think, 80's mini ont une âme [have a soul] (<- french expression, don't know if it has a sense in english)
