D'oh! Scheltrum!

I have several figures, and they should have been near the top of my list.

As for eBay, VSF figs are few and far between except for old Space 1889, but
there's a seller, collectorfigs, out of KC, who often has bits and
pieces. He ususally has them pre-primed, and run from sci-fi, such as
Galacta, to VSF such as original John Carter of Mars through Schetrum. I
picked up some from there, including, if memory serves, some
Rocketeer-style fellows.

I'd say you're still better off buying online direct, though, where you can.
Even the Deadlands figs seem rare on eBay, at least when I search.
Books, there are a-plenty.

Saddens me, as, if there were a better VSF presence, I'd be floggin' my
surplus Atlantis and Wild, Wild West toys there. ;->=

I wouldn't have thought so, but I'll take another look at some of what I got.
Would make sense, though, as he's put up a heck of a lot of OOP figs.

Thanks for the heads up, Frits!

I tend to cut some slack with long OOP, but not current production. And even
the Space 1889 stuff is still available.

Thanks again, all, for the heads up.

By the way, should I ever put up some 15mm Traveller, please note I DO have a
metric b**t load of the original. Not that the Martian Metals stuff was
all that good as castings. ;->=

Just to be safe, I'll try to do the in original blisters.
