Sci-Fi Fictioneers

Stan Johansen Miniatures produced this Sci-Fi Fictioneers range sculpted by Stan Johansen. According to information provided by Stan, these figures were his first line of 25mm figures. They were sculpted by him and first sold from 1972 to 1976. Stan cited both Heinlein's "Starship Troopers" and Burroughs' "...of Mars" books as his inspiration. Stan planned to expand this line, however, someone else got the rights to produce Barsoom figures. Also, around 1976 FanTac Games asked him to do their Space Marines figures so he discontinued working on this range.

In 2021, the IP and remaining stock/molds/masters were sold to RRB Minis. Most of these are back in production; the current offerings and the status of the restoration project can be found at rrbminis.com.
