Plus we have Ms Freeman, a liberated young medic from the near future who will be available singly and combined in a new pack with two other temporal travellers – Ms Temple and Group Captain Jim.

The detail on Tucker really makes him stand out from some of the other models in the Crooked range (much as I love them) with their smooth faces. Excellent work

Hurrah.  Wonderful additions to your range.  It doesn't Hurt that Professor Kane is so well-sculpted.  ;)
