The person must have brought them from Lacy Scott in Bury St Edmunds
He is selling them at very high prices considering what he paid for them.
I was in part of the BFFS members that sorted out Michael Creese's figures.
There was another auction in December last year.
I now think all of Mike's figures and Dioramas have been sold at Lacy Scott.

I adjusted some pictures, too large (forgot to downsize them)... should be better.

But well done to all, you did us proud  ;D [size=78%]    [/size]

A lot of Michael Creese painted flat figure sets and a couple of dioramas for sale on eBay at the moment.
