About
This short series of 25mm figures featured characters from the Finieous Fingers [3] comic strip by J. D. Webster. This strip ran in various magazines over the years - including TSR's Dragon Magazine - and it was also published as an anthology - "The Finieous Treasury" (1981). In 1982 Tom Meier was hired to sculpt the 8 main characters from the comic strip and they were offered for sale as a strictly limited edition available only until December 1982. In addition, 10 complete sets of figures were gold-plated. Single figures from the gold-plated sets were inserted randomly into the normal sets. All of these figures have "Finieous" and "Manzakk" on the bases. At some point, a few bootleg sets were made [7] [8] Tom Meier revisited these characters 22 years later for his own Thunderbolt Mountain line of Finieous Fingers.
