V is for Viking, Vinyl Vikings

Quick box-ticker here at Small Scale World, nearly included in the mini-season on Supreme medievals back in January or whenever it was, and a go-to in Rack Toy Month most years; Supreme / SP Toys, and this year is no exception! There's actually some Arabs somewhere (show report) which may make the month, if I keep-up the posting rate!
 
Here masquerading as 'by Atosa', on a sticker, presumably an importer or retailer's phantom-brand, it's a standard Supreme packaging from about ten or fifteen years ago. Six foot, there may have been one or two pairs of mounted in similar packs? You can see two of them on the card and there were others on the back, but it wasn't in a fit state to photograph, or scan!

I was going to leave them in the blister so took this close-up, price label suggests the continent, but it could have come via the Republic of Ireland, however, I fancy it may have entered the UK on a second weekend in May, via PB Toys!

Here's some I prepared later! The packaging was pretty shot and only hanging together from the front, so in the end I binned it . . . makes room too! They're nice figures, one (guy on the end) needs his shield heat-bent the other way. That's it, box ticked, tagged - "Next!"
