Wow, I could have used Admiral Nelson and the Seaview crew about 40 years ago! I was painting and making science fiction and fantasy figures and models to sell at science fiction conventions. I tried to have the widest range of stuff I could manage but inevitably people would ask me for things I didn't have. I do remember one time a guy asked if I had any Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea figures! Sadly, I did not.

I would love any figure with a broomhandle Mauser – can't say why but one of my favourite handguns

If it's "worthless" I have no need of it. Not sure what that even means…

Old poll.

I have Queen Victoria with shotgun. It took me years to finally get one. "Useless" in this context, to me means that there is no practical use in game terms but you have to have it. Her. God bless her.
She just fits in the pilot house of the Lindberg Robert E Lee paddleboat, and the lads fight better knowing she is watching over them.

I also got a Don Quixote figure years ago. I NEEDED it. Painted, never used it in a game.

Oh, I could find employment for most of these figures (the ones I recognize, anyway), and I already have a girl with a broomhandle Mauser and a Barney the Purple Dinosaur.

The Seaview crew would make an excellent Pulp adventures league. And while we're in Sixties TV Land, the Combat squad would be terrific in a WWII skirmish action.

QV with a shotgun – she featured in the first two IHMN are held. She's tough!

Carl from Caddyshack and the Dalai Lama are both great scenario rescue objectives.

Freydis as described sounds like what I eant in a Jomsviking warlord for SAGA.
