Idol Pursuits : Master of the Plastic Arts - Part 3 : 01984 Dr. Strange metal figure and 3 complete sets of TSR metal figures

Hello again, for another "Master of the Plastic Arts" installment of "Idol Pursuits".

Our entry today is but the first of TWO linked posts, both associated with the Marvel Super Heroes RPG (role playing game) first released by TSR in 01984.

In this installment, we take a look at the metal miniature figurines, produced by TSR.

The general purpose of the miniature figures is that they were representative of your character(s) which you would then move along the included play-map as you made your way through the given adventure(s).

These were the more "high-end" authentic player figures (which could be painted to suit), as opposed to the "cheap-ass" versions that I feature in the other part of this 2-fer entry (HERE).
