@consectari- The goat is a nice little touch. Though I based it separately from the Chupacaba, since it allows the Chupacabra a little more flexibility in use. Unfortunately the Chupacabra and Goat are cast in the same mold so the goat is connected to the Chupacabras tab for slotted bases, via a small arm/sprue of lead (yes I know the Chronoscope figures aren't lead but a tin alloy).

I just got a shipment of minis from Splintered Light Miniatures, including three Cave Bears (perfect for my Stalingrad 2072 setting), Starship Crew (for Traveller) and armed raccoon-men (as "uplifts" for Traveller and also as mutants for Gamma World-esque settings). Unfortunately, the photos I took of them didn't come out well, so I'll have to take new pictures of the minis later on.

Do they scale up well with the rest of your 15mm stuff?

The bears are as big as they should be, the starship crewmen are of the right scale, if a little big (but still 100% OK), and the raccoon men are a little big (somewhere between 15mm and 18mm) but not TOO big.

I nearly forgot, I 'did' pick up some Zvezda Gallic Warriors a few weeks ago. Wanted some stuff for Dark Fantasy gaming.
I should have researched the product though; nearly 1/4th of the kit is nude except for a chain/thing over the schlong.
I have no issues with nudity in figures, male or female, but it -does- cut down on my options a bit.
Can't find the camera software, so semi-stock pics:

Dimitri,

Use some green stuff to add some clothing or simply don't use the nudes. I actually don't care to use nudes of either sex in my gaming.

Tink: I actually don't mind the fact that there are nudes, it's just the sheer number of them and the small number of poses.
Personally, having a few adds a nice touch of realism. Every 'barbaric' culture had some kind of enraged warrior that went into battle nearly or completely naked; Scandinavian Baresarks, Zaprozian Cossacks, Dacians, etc.
Only have Milliput, but I'm sure some pants would be easy enough to do. Just lazy.

Miner, you're right. I've been -very- impressed by the quality of every 1/72 kit I've picked up. Most make your average 28 look featureless in comparison.

Picked up a nicely painted Vampire from a well known auction site a few weeks ago.

It arrived today - in all of it's painted glory - very nice indeed.

Rocketmen for my pulp WWII games, sculpted for me by Matt Hingley at Elheim. The arm looks a bit weird in this pic but it's just the camera angle. It sounds like he will be doing post-apocalyptic gangers in the new year, can't wait to see them.
