if You did not recognize them You haven't, but should ... read the Discworld novels from Terry Prattchett.
Start with the older ones ... imo the best ... with the nightwatch series ... so much character. Vimes, Death, Agusta, *purr*

Thanks for the info. Sorry, but I've never been a fan of Pratchett's kind of flat humour ... Nevertheless I like the very nice figures!  :)

Thanks for the comments guys.

@ Admiral Benbow - The figures are from Micro Art Studios Discworld range and are from left to right:

Cut My Own Throat Dibbler - Often heard shouting "Sausage inna Bun! Get 'em while they're warm" - the Arthur Daley of Ankh Morpork

The others are The Canting Crew, the beggars and street-livers of Ankh Morpork

 Duckman - Whose response to people mentioning the duck on his head is "What duck?"

Coffin 'Enry - Cough! Give me some money or Cough! I'll follow you home Cough!"

Arnold Sideways - he uses boots on sticks to push himself around and bangs his pans to attract attention

Gaspode the Wonder Dog - A talking dog, who sometimes remembers to say "Woof!" when ordinary dogs would bark

Foul Ole Ron - Favourite phrases are "Buggrit!"  "Millenium Hand and Shrimp"

These are painted as part of my collection of Discworld figures (City Watch characters appeared in LPL8) and presented here as just a small tribute to a great author who sadly passed away earlier this year with so many stories untold.

GNU Terry Pratchett

Thargor

I was looking forward to seeing your AM figures after your comment on mine in Round 3.  Not so sure I wanted to see them this close up.

Beautifully done figures in a nice setting.  A real tribute to Sir Terry.

All I can say about coming up against them is Buggerit and can I have a Rat on a stick

"Don't you mean Pork?"
"Well yes...technically"

sorry, Admiral, though not actually a quote, but sort of an insider ;)
