Not sure where these belong, Nick will no doubt be along to reveal all at some point.

Yup, very odd, but interesting.  ::)

Great miniatures,  :)

I assume the middle one is supposed to be Clockwork Orange-y in a trenchcoat, but what are the other two?
Or is the Lucid Eye range supposed to be whatever Steve Saleh fancies, in a similar way to Mike Owen's Midnight Workshop stuff?

That's right up my middle-aged alley.  :-*

Oh honey, watch that man!

Might have to get me one of those. I'm most interested as to if these models are part of a new range?

Well, I like a bit of Bowie, but none of these:-


really screams this:-



to me.
Not knocking the figure in any way, I'm just none the wiser,  lol

Despite that, I love the 2 on the right, and they could definitely find a VSF use for me.
I look forward to this range developing,  :)

Does anyone produce an Iggy Pop miniature?

Ziggy could be holding a hair dryer......

The other two look more like Pulp Victorians than anything else.

The center figure is nothing but a young man about town. Perhaps he's doing a bit of Record shopping and perhaps a bit of socializing to the William Tell Overture.

I'm pretty certain that the right hand figure would be Numbe r8 in the series of famous time travelers.

Very much looking forward to more of this.

A customer of the Korova Milk Bar? It makes sense now than you mention it.

On site to purchase, plus some nifty looking Neanderthals.

Those are rather nice too,  :)
Look as though they'd go well with Copplestone's cavemen.

And just right for a bit of VSF time-travel, or lost valley exploration

I'm a fan of North Star's eclectic Thrilling Tales and Midnight Workshop ranges, and I think I'm going to like this new Lucid Eye range too.

Why not check out the full review of the range on the Wargames Illustrated website?

Then you can see the other figures which are coming out at Salute...
