F is for Follow-up - Tim Mee's Fierce Fellows

Although I tagged them with Tim Mee, I forgot to mention in the text that the various HK-sourced figures we looked at the other day were copied from Tim Mee mouldings . . . I don't have many but here they are for a comparison...

Cave Man; Cavemen; Cro-Magnon Man; Dinosaur Models; Dinosaur Dinosaur Set; Early Man; Homonids; Humanoids; Prehistoric; Prehistoric Animals; Primitive Humans; Pterosaurus; Sinclair Gas Stations; Sinclair Gasoline; Sinclair Petroleum; Small Scale World; smallscaleworld.blogspot.com; Tim Mee; Tim Mee Dinosaurs; Tyrannosaurus;
It's the figures we're interested in and all three poses are here, I'm not sure about the green dinosaur; he looks a bit too good? They are two or three millimetres taller than the largest of the copies, so they (the HK figures) were probably hand-copies rather than pantograph; the detail loss is also quite marked.

Coconut shy! Tim Mee/Processed Plastics made a second set (reissued by J Lloyd) and this is the sum total of my sample! He's about 45mm and the tree may not be right; there are so many versions of it now it's hard to place, but they came together!
