Miniatures New Figures & Accessories
Mantis miniatures provide us with some pretty nice resin
figures. We have had a look at a few of them here on TMN and usually we like
what we see. They are definitely up there on most modellers wishes with often
figures that are a little different from the norm. These two new Pin Up ladies
are joined by an accessory set and two animal sets – Let’s Have a look at them..
Pin-up Girl #2

In the tradition of all of the Pin-up girl figures you may
have seen on the side of the fighting aircraft of WWII here is a rendition of
that style in something you can use – a 1/35th scale figure.
This young lady is designed to fit onto one of the superb
new Masterbox or even the older tamiya pushbikes (not included of course.) This
bent bar shows a girl’s bike that she sits neatly on top of.
It made us wonder – was it the wind blowing up her skit, the
bike’s seat catching or was she making a distraction? Then we had a look at her
partner….
Pin-up Girl #1

price 14€

Pizzichemi
Painted by: Artur
Miniszewski
This lady is seen looking very sassy , but maybe a little
sinister also. You can see that she is pulling her skirt to the side – to reveal
a luger pistol!
This innocent and lovely lovely looking lady might even be
creeping up behind her partner in this set while her skirt pulled up on the
bike is a distraction.
She and her partner are both sculpted in 35th
scale and sold as a single figure or as a set…
Pin-up Girls Set 1

price: 26€/

N.Pizzichemi / Painted by: A.Miniszewski
Bicycle not included.
Dedicated to Tamiya & Master box kits.
..and here is the big reveal! These two ladies are playing a
dangerous game, they are both sassy but there is a little sinister in the air
about them as one distracts while the other stalks her prey. I can already
think of the interesting scenarios that the modeller could make up – not just
even in a WWII setting which they would be perfect for but other eras and theatres as well...
Sculpted by Nino Pizzichemi and Painted in this instance by
Artur Miniszewski, both of these resin figures are now available in 35th
scale as single or combined sets for 26
euro. Now only f there was something to carry in that bike’s basket???
Pin-up Girl &
Accessories for bicycles.

price: 26€/
Bicycles not
included. Set contains additional parts dedicated to Tamiya & Master Box
kits.
Exactly what is upset in the applecart is this – a 35th
scale set of “Stowage” for push bikes. This is all the accessories a young
lady on the go might like – with two saddlebags, some fruit, a hat and some
clothes a wrapped and belted blanket, a purse and lastly a dog inside the front
basket of the bike! A lot of stuff there, all you need now is the bike.

This brown bear /he could be a ny colour I suppose. Looks
pretty much like the bears you may still well see in Europe or north america,
so you could use him in many a number of dioramas you may have in mind.

You know it’s thanksgiving when a turkey gets a shot in grey 35th scale resin. The natural enemy of Vladimir Putting this turkey
is joined by three little pigs from that nursery rhyme all covered in mud!
