Hobby Products produced a range of figures associated with the Asterix comics written by René Goscinny and illustrated by Albert Uderzo. The miniatures were all sculpted by Josef Ochmann except some of the Pirates that were sculpted by Michael Immig (Michael has confirmed it was 1703 a, b and c). Miniatures were sold in boxed sets or individual blister packs. They have become highly collectible figures.[1][2]
