(Commercial) Crooked Dice Lawmen packs

[Arlequín]

Great-looking figures... 

... but yes the 'No.4 Rifle' is an odd choice for the U.S. It was indeed pump-shotguns, M1 Carbines and scoped civilian hunting rifles back in the '60s. Small-mag M16 replaced the M1s in the '70s, just in time for TV's 'SWAT' (1975) and the 'Dawn of the Dead' (1978).

Look at it this way - it is obviously a UK cop show set in the US, but hamstrung by tight-fisted budgetarians so the production designer couldn't afford proper rifle props. 

Awesome stuff. With those I could actually finish my Planet of The Simians project, possibly using the United Radionics heads for a more "ape-riot containment" look.

Some of those heads could start a pop group at the YMCA....

Thanks for all the comments. Here's some more painted pics from Simon Bradley.

Blimey.

You're figures are made for Simons painting. Excellent. For Christmas I wish myself only one week without work and the talent of Simon. Enough Lead is in my hobby-room...

Had a cracking photography day taking some new pics for upcoming releases. Here's a little sample of the latest Lawmen:

Wow. The painting is fantastic.

Lovely paint job

Got some extra pics of the assembled Lawmen deals, so put this poster together for Crisis as we won't have them all painted in the cabinet. Each weapon deal of four figures comes with three head sprues of each hat type (4 heads per sprue) and the £30 set comes with all 16 figures AND four head sprues of each hat type! Bargain!

Damn you Perrotton, I'm not supposed to be buying anything at Crisis!

Any discount for former Constables of the Special variety?

See you in the bar at the hotel!

I got the full set - and realized when I got them that I would rather have had all hand weapons or batons. The M16s do nothing for me, can't see a use for them so they will sit in the trades pile I guess.

Probably buy more hand weapon types to get what I want.

They are very nice figures though, and I am happy with 12 of the 16

Mwah-ha-ha!

Very clever set and nice sculpts, GREAT!

They are gorgeous, but a figure with a pump-action shotgun would be so useful...
