Firefighters in!

OK, though it's almost New Year and I need a new calendar, no, definitely I'm not bringing a firefighters calendar ;)

Do you remember me playing this game?

It's been a whole year since I showed it up

You saw what was the problem then. The minis. The six firefighters were all but identical! Just in different colours! But the game uses different kind of specialists. Weird, I know. :D

Fortunately the creators realized this bloody mess was unsustainable, and decided to produce a whole range of firefighters depicting the different specialists. Phew, just in time; I was getting crazy looking for 28mm. firefighters, and the choices were not that many.

Here they are:
 
Captain and Imaging Technician

Generalist and Structural Engineer

CAFS Firefighter and Rescue Specialist

Rescue Dog, HAZMAT Technician and Paramedic

Driver/Operator and Veteran

But well, of course you can still play the original minis if you please. As you can see I used the floor to make them recognizable by colours:
 
What was I supposed to do? Leave them unpainted?

When the whole company is together they really look like a team!!
 
I'm almost expecting a TV series out of these!
 
Now I do believe these guys need a baptism of fire (of fire, you get it? I'm so witty...)

I foresee some really busy Christmas...
