In going through the March 1975 issue I found this:
I've previously posted on SF13 Plant Man. I'm just embarrassed that it has taken me so long to progress this project.
Here are SF3 Red Martian Warrior, sword and dagger and SF4 Red Martian Maiden.
Lovely bendy Hinchcliffe figures.

They featured in the previous post and just took a mere four years to complete. No progress on the other Hinchcliffe figures or those from TinMan Miniatures that I purchased a year or so back.
The catalyst for this post was realizing that the new John Carter kickstarter has miniatures that are 32mm.
Good idea starting an index! I started one for my collection of wargaming magazines, and I still maintain it. I made it an open resource for everyone to use, see here:

Your site is fantastic. I'm also relieved you have not already done Military Modelling. I plan to make mine publicly available and will look at what you have done.
DeleteGood gnus! Broadsword Miniatures have plans to recast as much of the Hinchliffe John Carter range as they can!
ReplyDeleteI've finally been painting the range as I think I've had them long enough now! The SF15 Martian Dog never appeared as far as I'm aware... possibly destroyed in the master mold? Would love see an image of one if it did ever make a limited release... the only listing I've it in is the one above when I too was going through my MM magazines although without the commitment to cataloguing them! A few pics here;

As Jon says, Mike at Broadsword is due to re-release them soon!
I think these old figures will provide character to any Barsoom game. Annoyingly I have a few figures now, but from different ranges and while nice, ain't really compatible. I always wanted enough figures so I could use them with the SPI boardgame.
