McEwan Miniatures produced this Heros and Wizards range. These included various fantasy figures in 1/72 scale (25mm to the top of the head on humans) except for the S Series which are in 1/64 Scale (comparable to other manufacture's 25 mm figures). The figures are generally cast without a weapon or other equipment attached. The listed equipment is provided loose piece to allow for easy swapping/modification. Some of these items are still available from Reviresco ( http://tin-soldier.com/ ) but may not listed in their online catalog.

Kilburians & Niskmarines: Kilburack and Nisk were fantasy lands in a late '70s D&D campaign. There was a molding issue with the figures. John didn’t make the masters and they were made of non-durable materials so they only got one mold out them making these very rare. Unique figures for the Niskmarines were never produced and the same figures were sold as both Kilburians & Niskmarines at different points in time.

Sculptor: John McEwan.
