Very interesting,

probably inspired by this beatiful pair done by Mirko Bayerl (taken from Missing Lynx page).

Ahhh!! Now I get it! So if I use, for example a Dragon figure in one of my Dio's, somebody will say they were inspired to release that set by my dio? :-) You have it back to front.

Hi Vinnie,

well, I am not 100% sure, when this Lincoln County pair first appeared, nevertheless Mirko's Panther is from 2001-2002, so I had (maybe incorrectly) expected that the inspiration came from his model :-)

Still, this is a great figure set and I'm happy Lincoln County released it ...

Roman, product development takes a long time usually! The figure in the overcoat is the same figure as the one in the set. The contours of the fur lining match exactly. Either Mirko sculpted the set for VLS or used a VLS figure as the base for it...............I hope.

i think the Lincoln line are re-releases of some of the older Warrior figures.

which is why you can see them in older models and dioramas

As well as from some of the other VLS subsidiaries.

Thanks for the review, Vinnie.
