I purchased these figures from Splintered Light Miniatures when I attended Historicon. These figures are well made, had almost no flash, lots of detail for a 15mm/18mm miniatures, and the service from David at Splintered Light is excellent. These figures were not manufactured as 1/72 but as 15mm/18mm figures. It would have been awesome if they were one or two millimeters taller, but they look good on the table top. Overall I am very happy with them.
TheRat Ogre shown will get his own article, but he is a 28mm Ratman figure from Rodrick Campbell. I knew he would make the perfect Rat Ogre for my 1/72d Ratmen and he did not disappoint.
As usual, Friar Tuck (an Airfix Robin Hood set figure) and Conan (a Caesar Miniatures Adventures set figure) make their appearance for scale.
Thanks for reading...

Just found this post doing a search for 1/72 ratmen. Good stuff, as usual Ron.
ReplyDeleteJust begun my own 1/72 fantasy foray, thanks for sharing this blog.
ReplyDeleteThanks Stevothedivo, I am hoping to finish up my home improvements and find some time to get back to the paint table. It has been way to long.
