Cherilea 60mm, swoppets and solids, nothing terribly exciting, but the
black-wash over bronze polymer swoppets were new to me and will be retained,
while the yellow plug-ins will help with complete figure building - I have a
bag (they're too big for tubs) of finished ones and a bag of detritus! Among
the solids I think I like the pinky-maroon re-issue the most, he looks like
he's been cast in 'boiled sweet'!
The other usable figures, it was the yellow
40mm from Cherilea I was after (previously seen here), but I
have a base for the brown Kinder
somewhere, who may turn-out to be a different colour to the one I've got?
The headless 1st version Cherilea will go in their spares tub and
the Charbens (top left) is a hard
plastic one, they used to be a bit of a mystery to me, they did, now (post PW's 'special' publication on the subject) I assume Prison
Industries - Prindus?
Nothing else leaps-out, but they are all
complete, which is more than can be said for the third 'third' . . .
. . . who have already gone to 'Recyce'
for onward conversion to Solent P! This stuff isn't rare, so
there's just no point keeping it in this state, unless you happen to be a
converter who wants to work with such an awkward material - and that's not a
dig, I have much admiration for those who produce workable figures from
polyethylene!

I'll take the broken Lone Star king off you if it's still knocking around
I'll have to dig in the wheelie bin Peter but he's still there, and if you want him he's yours; definitely! Do you want the others?

Funny, I found your message going to eMail you just now!
Nice haul. A couple of them look like they were the inspiration for the Giant HO figures.
Yes EY; the two creamy-white ones - Crescent or Crescent-for-Kellogg's, they (Giant) also used some of the Britains Swoppet poses, not seen above (harder to pick-up cheap they are!).
