So I'm pulling some figures down off the display shelf to use in a game, and I realize… I don't know what these figures are, I don't remember where they came from, and I don't know who painted them! (And no, I'm not senile, I just have a lot of minis! )

They were obviously painted as a set, with distinctive hex bases. They seem quite familiar, yet I can't quite place them – can you?
Thanks to Huscarle, we can now identify these as products of Bronze Age Miniatures.
Man With Mace (32FADV3)
![Man With Mace Man With Mace](showcase/fanshowcase/2020/290207d.jpg)
A realistically sized sword, and is that a mace? Seems too large to be a scepter. Or is it magical?
![Man With Mace Man With Mace](showcase/fanshowcase/2020/290207f.jpg)
Nice to see a pack that doesn't look like a modern backpack.

The figure has a forward lean – do you think he was sculpted that way, or do I need to carefully straighten him out?
Woman With Spear (32FADV4)
![Woman With Spear Woman With Spear](showcase/fanshowcase/2020/290207c.jpg)
Nice expression.
![Woman With Spear Woman With Spear](showcase/fanshowcase/2020/290207e.jpg)
On the thigh – old war wound, or painter's error?
![Woman With Spear Woman With Spear](showcase/fanshowcase/2020/290207h.jpg)
Hanging at her side, I assume those are nets?

Woman in Blue (32FADV5)
![Woman in Blue Woman in Blue](showcase/fanshowcase/2020/290207i.jpg)
I assume her left arm is under the cloak. Which means she might be armed. Or holding something magical.
![Woman in Blue Woman in Blue](showcase/fanshowcase/2020/290207j.jpg)
Or maybe she's the princess that needs rescuing?

Crouching Man (32FADV1)
![Crouching Man Crouching Man](showcase/fanshowcase/2020/290207b.jpg)
Is he ready to spring upon an enemy, or is he skulking? With that sword, surely he's no thief!
![Crouching Man Crouching Man](showcase/fanshowcase/2020/290207l.jpg)
The mustache adds a lot of character.

Dragon Knight (32FADV2)
![Dragon Knight Dragon Knight](showcase/fanshowcase/2020/290207n.jpg)
All suited up, with some kind of 'dragon helmet'.
![Dragon Knight Dragon Knight](showcase/fanshowcase/2020/290207v.jpg)
And a flaming sword.
![Dragon Knight Dragon Knight](showcase/fanshowcase/2020/290207u.jpg)
And a unique shield – is that dragon scale?
![Dragon Knight Dragon Knight](showcase/fanshowcase/2020/290207r.jpg)
Would you cast him as a hero or a villain? High-level player character or monster boss?
![Dragon Knight Dragon Knight](showcase/fanshowcase/2020/290207q.jpg)
Well, that's the set. I don't believe they've ever been featured on TMP before. If you painted them, let me know and I'll update the article. Thanks!
