Are those little figurines from the Classic Marvel Magazine originally published in the UK but now available in the US?

JB, do you own a copy of How to Draw the Marvel Way?  Sorry for the sort of off topic post, but I saw your books and became curious.

I used to have one, but a few years back I gave it to a 
 neighborhood kid.

What are those figures made of?  I think I'll be waiting a long time to see Guardian made, if ever.  Would it be possible to mod a Silver Surfer, or chop a few of these up to make what I want, like with Heroclix?

They're lead, Ryan.  And, yeah, I would imagine 
 some of them would customize pretty easily.

Thanks JB.  I have about 25 years experience painting little lead Citadel figures, so I'm off to spend some money.

Captain Britain would probably make the best 
 Guardian.  Need a little "whittling", but he's got the 
 "helmet".

Thanks for the advice!  Other than Captain America and Dr. Doom, the ones I really want aren't out yet, which will limit the bleeding for a while.

Love the Iron Man mini statues from Bowen. I wanted the Full Size ones, but they are rare and expensive!
