TihonFigureN has a 60mm figure set based on the TV version of the Witcher.  

Until recently, you could buy extra and leftover figures made for various tabletop games directly from China on ebay with either free shipping or extremely cheap shipping.  Most are made in smaller scales but I found a bunch of random figures that work with toy soldiers.  I don't know which games these figures were originally made to be played with.  I don't believe that the sellers know either.   
These are all very high quality both in terms of the sculpts and the production value.  

Publius has only made three poses of goblins as far as I know.  They are very high quality just like all of their figures.

LOD has started a series of 70mm Greek Gods.  High quality at a midlevel price.  Seven figures so far.

Ares.

Athena.



Poseidon. 
Apollo. 
Athena II.
Aphrodite.
Hera.

TihonFigureN is another Russian maker of very high quality figures.  Not cheap, but worth the price for their best stuff.  This set of 18 includes several "gun dwarves."  

This castle playset comes with three inch figures that are like a poor man's Papo/Schielch.

3D printing is almost certainly the future for high end figures of all types.  It is still fairly expensive to print the figures compared to mass production, but that may change in the coming years.  Below are the first 3D printed figures I purchased off of ebay.  The are a random assortment of super cool poses.  These are in 54mm scale.  It would be easy to spend a fortune on these figures.  I intend to be very particular about the ones I buy going forward.

Biplant is the corporate successor to Oritet.  They recently released these sets of elves with dragonriders including three colors of dragons.   They are about 60mm.

Hello you wonderful people, monsters and other dungeon crawlers.  I am back from my long absence. 

Around three years ago, I was diagnosed with life changing health issues.  Issues for which medical science has no effective treatments.  So, my priorities changed and I went on a personal journey of exploration to find alternative treatments and solutions.  My path turned a bit dark and eventually drew the attention of law enforcement resulting in a host of criminal charges.  My trial was an absolute circus with the prosecution recklessly tossing around terms like "atrocity" and "ritual sacrifice."  I fought the good fight in court but the deck was stacked against me.  The final result was my sad, and untimely, execution by the State.

Fortunately, my younger brother has a real talent for unspeakable acts of necromancy.  This past solstice he pulled me back from my convalescence in the grave.  Sure, I had to give him back his soul and his spell makes me cluck like a chicken whenever he says the word "burrito," but that is a small price to pay for a new lease on life.  I do mean lease as I must pay the rent every equinox and solstice from now on and eat a very restricted diet, if you know what I mean.  At least I was able to get a lot of work done while in the dirt and I will now be able to get back to regular weekly posts for the next several months.  I have a lot of new figures to catch up with.  I hope you will all enjoy. 

Beleriand Toy Soldiers of Russia has released a super high quality series of 60mm figure sets based on J.R.R. Tolkien's Children of Hurin.  They are among the best figures ever to come out of Russia.  They are very expensive ($10-$15 each fig).  Sadly, they are made of a very soft material that can distort under pressure.  That makes storage a little complicated.

Safari has released a new set of six 60+mm figures called Heroes & Monsters. 

One last figure from Russia.  This is a 60mm evil queen/vampire/witch.  I am not sure when or by whom she was made.  What ever you want ot call her, she has bad girl written all over her.    

I am going to miss Russian made figures. 

These are the last of the Russian made figures I was able to buy off of ebay before the war started and all the Russian sellers got kicked off.  A few Russian sellers are back on ebay but they are listed as operating out of Albania.  Imagine that.  

Some of the figures are made to be classic greek style Amazons and others are just female Viking style warriors. 

Publius classic Amazons.

Dollar General has released  another new set of figures for Halloween this year.  The new set is called Witch Characters and has traditional pointy hat witchs in eight poses.  These are not as cool as the skeletons or the mummy army, but the are much better than last year's so called Ghost Pirates which were really just lame pirates with nothing ghostly about them.  These girls are made in the same scale as the other sets (42mm - 50mm).  They seem to be flying off the shelves.  Get them while you can.  

I think the one the with the star wand was moleled after a woman I dated in the 1990s.   

This is the last set of Russian made orcs I have left to post.  I do not know who made them.  There are a bunch of amazingly talented people producing their own figures in the Tehnolog Fantasy Battles style.  These orcs have a primitive look with excellent detail and mean looking faces.

After being delayed for months, EMCE finally relaased their Nanoforce Star Trek figures.  There are two sets of 12 figures from the Original Series and Next Generation.  The figures are around 50mm but 3mm of that is base.  They feel a bit smaller than they stand.  Excellent detail, 

Original Series

Next Generation

I am going to post about all of the Russian figures I have in backlog over the next few days/weeks.  Ebay has cut off Russian sellers and I do not have the direct links I had a few years ago.  Who knows when, or if, this stuff will ever be on the market again.  Sadly, the soldiers that Russia is exporting these days are no longer toys.  
These are around 54mm - 60mm.  The detail is outstanding.  This is only the second set of Russiam made Orcs I have found that includes a magic user.  

I do not know the actual name of the company that made these, but I love them and hope they keep making more figures.  These are some of the best orcs ever.

I have recently acquired the original superheroes that Timmee turned into fantasy figures after they gave up their liscense with Marvel.  Their was only one run of the superheroes and each figure came in just one color.  All of the Hulk, Green Goblin, Doctor Octupus and Namor figures are green.  All of the Red Skull, Spiderman, Ironman and Human Torch figures are red.  All of the Captain America, Thor, Dr. Doom and Falcon figures are blue.  

I do not believe I have seen any pictures of them side by side before.  So, just for fun . . . . regular and color ehanced versions.  

 SCS Direct is at it again.  They have just released a second series of their Fantasy Creatures.  Twelve new figures in the same old light and dark gray.
