Does anyone know how the various miniatures offered from Old Glory actually compare to each other, in size (talking about 25 to 28mm here)? I just purchased Pulp Alley and while I was initially planning on 15mm, I'm now leaning toward scaling up. I noticed a few miniatures in the Superfigs line would be useful for a pulp game. In order to get discounts, I was thinking of getting all my figures from the same source, and mixing and matching between the Superfigs, the West Wind horror line, and OG's historical miniatures. The Superfigs are listed as both 25mm and 28mm at various places on the OG website, depending on where one looks. Thank you for the help. |

I would use them all together without reservation, but I'm not bothered by minor variations in size. They all tend to be sculpted in an 'animated' style, so I think they go together well in that sense. |

Many of the Superfigs are very large (or even huge) compared to other OG lines, but this befits their super heroic background. As with C Anders above I would happily mix them with any of the other models you are considering. |

Agree with Jerry; even the 'normal' human SuperFigs are 30mm to the eye. Mark |

I have quite a number of superfigs, and they are definitely 'heroic' 28mm/30mm. If pulp is your thing, you should definitely check out
pulpfigures.com/home A complete range – I ordered some mystery men and they are very nice 28mm-ish figures. |

I also like Bob Murch's "Pulp Figures" very much (see previous post for link). You might also like to check out the various ranges from the manufacturers mentioned in this thread: TMP link

This has all been very helpful; thanks to everyone. I found Bob Murch's Pulp Figures just a few nights ago and was very impressed. Right now I'm debating between those and the mixing-and-matching of Old Glory figures. |

Buy them all, eh? The more the merrier . . . and you'll certainly want more, won't you? Personally I ordered 11 packs of Bob Murch's Pulp Figures on November 30 and received them one week ago today . . . and I've already fully painted 34 of them with another 6 almost finished . . . . . . and, yes, I'm already planning what to buy next. (They are fun to paint).
