American Adventurers sighted...

...in Rhanzlistan. I went to the Great Barr Table Top Sale last month with Jon ~ he anted to buy some prepainted 20mm WWII Russian troops and vehicles ~ not really thinking I'd buy anything. I was surprised to see one chap selling heaps of based and undercoated Pulp figures from any number of manufacturers. I bought five, very disciplined I thought, and the two shown below have gone right into he Rhanzlistan back story.
I see them as two American Adventurers, seeking the lost kingdom of Bhladi Bhla, where they might find fame and fortune, although getting it back home might be a problem, you really can't trust those Bhurpas any further than you can spit into a gale! For no other reason than I like to name figures in these Pulp style games after my friends, I decided to call them Joe Paddock and Davy Moore. Any resemblance to living chaps is of course accidental as they say. Here they are ~
Joe Paddock & Davy Moore














They are Copplestone figures of course, although which sets they are from I can't say off hand. They will be setting out on an adventure later in the month I hope.

    A nice job you have made of them too.
