With the painting table still out of reach (sigh) I was amusing/bemusing myself looking through various boxes and piles of books I have had to shift around while "redecorating" (top to bottom of the house, groan). Naturally I get happily distracted when I sift through some of the contents :)
Case in point, this figure was for my pure indulgence rather than any scenario need, it's my favorite 2000AD comic character: Hammerstein.
The mighty Hammerstein.
It was my intention to get the rest of the ABC Warriors someday too, but so far I have not seen at the wargame shows I've attended (that is when I had time to go to them).
Manufacturer: Wargames Foundry (looks like a mail order job for the rest of the ABC's)

Bloody Nora, Geordie - 2000AD my favorite comic, to which I still subscribe! Been reading it since Prog 1 and looking forward to Hammerstein's (MK1)return in the next 'Savage' book to be published soon...

I'm a fan but like following my local football team I dipped in and out:
Always liked:
Judge Dredd
Nemesis
ABC Warriors
Rogue Trooper
Stontium Dog
Halo Jones
Stirring stuff
Hit and miss with Slaine and Zarg's Future Shock's
IMHO
Great looking fig and a great paint job.
I´m afraid ABC warriors came down a bit lower on my fave list...Slaine and Rogue trooper came equal 1st place.
Cheers
Paul
Oh and nemesis!!
Cheers Paul's Bods,
I liked the "we're just" side-kicks idea of the ABC's to Nenesis and Deadlock
With Slaine I was never happy with the "warped" warrior thing and all the Celtic mythos I never really understood.
However some episodes were riveting. I always remember an "on the run" Druid or Shaman being protected by Slaine casting a magic protection circle keeping "wild beasts of the forrest at bay" only to be consumed by worms from underneath him.
I thought I would file that away for future use as a DM in AD&D, never got the chance to use it though ;)
