We've seen Brian's self display before (in another diver 'follow-up' post I think!), but there are new faces in the line-up; at that time it was the three whitish ones in the back row, they have been joined by two Lik Be (LB) cake decorations (they had a carded issue or two as well!) in red, a nice figure in front (metal?) and the larger chap at the back.
Cap'n Pugwash is still keeping an eye on his increasing motley crew!
Brian has actually found two of them, and using the stuff on the feet found them to be by Bonkers for the Ryan's World franchise. Brian reports the figures are solid with no movable parts which somewhat restricts play? I have seen the gift eggs in various supermarkets and other outlets, and had even got as far as working out there are different themes to the different trays/counter boxes (boys, Girls etc . . . ), but the graphics are too 'busy' to work out if there's anything useful to us in which tray's eggs, so I've ♫ . . . walked on down the hall ♪♪!Clearly they are worth a shufftie, and if anyone can enlighten us further, that would be grand. The Ryan's World 'phenomena' is best explained by Wikipedia for those who haven't encountered it.
In the meantime these turned up the other day in a lot I'd bid on for something else, and to be honest I hadn't really registered them in the evilBay images beyond maybe clocking them as 'better' or earlier Hong Kong copy stuff, but actually they are quite good paint Lone Star survivors and will need comparing with my 'master' sample, which we have seen before. Although I think most of mine are the James Bond orange ones, so these may be a very useful surprise?
