I recently did a commission for some figures for Barsoom the red planet of our Solar System. I grew up on the John Carter books by Edgar Rice Burroughs and I jumped at this commission and finished it in record time! All of the figures are from Bronze Age Miniatures except for the female; I'm not sure who makes the figure. I did two Green Martians:
I love the Bronze Age Green Martians - the variety, the options and the price at $12 US dollars. Figure stands at approximate 54mm tall.
Next on to Helium.
I grew up on John Carter of Mars too and these look great!
ReplyDeleteThanks! I love ERB.
DeleteI love these figures but I wish someone did them in cheap 54mm plastic. I have converted Red Martians from American Indians.
ReplyDeleteThe curse of non-standard 54mm. It’s too bad there aren’t more non-historical sets out there.
DeleteMore nice work here Neil. Bronze Age miniatures is a manufacturer I have looked at on many occasions but not yet taken the plunge!
ReplyDeleteThe metal quality is good, the sculpting is animated and they are surprisingly low priced.
DeleteThese look terrific! I imagine the games you have with these are a lot of fun, Neil. I fear the John Carter books have escaped me - another gap in my education that I need to put right!

Jason,
DeleteThe first three are the best (really a trilogy) - pulp fiction at it's finest: A Princess of Mars, The Gods of Mars, and The Warlord of Mars.

I have bought from Bronze Age several times- never been disappointed in any way
ReplyDeleteSame here; class act, well sculpted figures and a great price.
DeleteThe female shown is also a Bronze Age Miniature.
