Ed Borris got a sneak peak of some new poses that will come out in the future. The designer gave permission to share these photos. At this time the designer  does not want his name mention or who will be offering these figures. The figures are to be done in plastic.

As you can see it is a Indian warrior possible Sioux attacking with knife and tomahawk. I like the pose very animated and can not wait to see the other poses.

    I like the original posing, and that talented sculptors can still come up with brand new positions and poses that have never been done before. This would be a perfect addition to any Custer Last Stand set-up, especially in the final stages on Last Stand Hill. We’re all looking forward to seeing the other poses in the set.

    That is a Paragon figures, it’s one their website now. It looks like he got the head size correct.

    Yes, now that the figure’s been identified as Paragon, I can recognize the Paragon style. I think it’s great that since Paragon did such an outstanding job on it’s Apache line, that it’s now turning its attention to some Plains Indians (Sioux, Cheyenne, Arapaho, Commanche). Paragon’s cavalry went perfectly with TSSD’s cavalry, and I’m betting this new Paragon set will go perfectly with the TSSD Sioux in the Custer Last Stand sets. Fortunately, the respective owners of TSSD and Paragon are good friends, talk all the time, are both located in Southern Cal., use the same overseas manufacturer, and so we can get a little correlation between the figures.

    The only thing we have to worry about is that the most recent issue of Playset Magazine (January-February 2015 — just arrived) contains a small announcement on page 9 that Gene Abravaya of Paragon recently suffered a mild heart attack. Fortunately, for all sorts of reasons, the prognosis for complete recovery is good, per Playset Magazine.

      I like that Paragon is doing Sioux Indians and not typical breech cloth that is usually done. Dom 54mm Karl May Indians will go well with these figures.
      We are sorry to hear about Gene’s health scare and hope everything stay well. We all wish him well.

    Yeah, plains Indians are what I crave. Don’t imagine the spear was a big weapon at the Little Big Horn, but he looks good.

    I agree ,Dom plastik Indians as most Germany made Indians are one of the best and my favorites Indians ever made, even most brands of Germany figures run in larger than 1.32 scale like elastolin and others; their Indian poses and figure sculpting is impressive and in general in my opinion more varied than all American Indians made in plastic till Barzso start doing new tribes types figures representative of the less produced eastern and northern early natives.
