in one of my ebay auctions i found some strange figs - they all have a square base and the tag "VFW" with a number. the birdie-guys seem to have the year 1978 and a number. (which would speak against star frontiers)


so - does anyone recognize them?

I'm not much of a mini's guy but I don't think they are for Star Frontiers. The winged guy doesn't look like any of the SF races.

The minis also have a very early feel / look to them so I would think they predate Star Frontiers.

Did anything every come of this?

I checked on the Stuff of Legends website, which is very strong in mini's for this era...

Sadly their Gamma World images are few and far between.

Good info. I thought about taking the images down to the local V.F.W. to see if they would recognize them. Thanks for saving me the trip!
