Any old boys or girls able to help out The Colonel?
These 1/72 figures were in a 'Betta Bilda' set I purchased on Ebay, which (along with the style) places them in the UK, probably from the 60s (clicky for biggy) ...
They are brittle polystyrene.
Manufacturer and date? I thank you.

Dark Mechanicus, but only half the story (Part 2)
Before JtD gets the works, I needed to make the bulk of the base (restricted to a 'Terminator Base' [40 mm] for this competition), for scale. Just needed a cog, so a little press-moulding was in order.
The Cog ...
In GW Green Stuff (for flexibility) ...
Voilà ...
ProCreate filled (paraffin wax-assisted, never waste any putty ;) ) ...
Voilà ...
Result is more than fine for this project. There was a little irrelevant tearing, as I took it out early, because of the complexity of the teeth etc.
The Base moves on ...
