Paul, they are being revived by Thistle and Rose Miniatures in the US. Sadly progress is slow, but some of us are patient - sort of.
I am keen to expand my Sea Peoples with more of the same figures.

I built up a set of Biblical Era armies for a Trojan War campaign (approx. 1250BC)
Mycenaean - using figures cast by Hall of Ancient Warriors Trojan - Essex New Kingdom Egyptian (a list) - Peter Pig (mostly - but with some Essex Chariots) Babylonian - Essex Syro Canaanite - Hall of Ancient Warriors Ugaritic - mix of anything Early Hebrew - some Venexia but Essex and others thrown in Early Libyan - a mix of Chariot, Essex and Corvus Belli Sea Peoples - Hall of Ancient Warriors Assyrian - Essex Bedouin (Midianite) a mix of ranges Makkan - a mix of ranges Hittite - Essex
I can recommend the Chariot (aka Magister Militum) range for biblical figures - these ones stand out in my Libyan army and likewise the Nubians that I am currently building include a good sized batch from that range. The command figures are exquisite.
The Nubians are going to be part of a campaign set for "The Great Revolt" (2250BC) and I have already built up a Sumerian army which as a core of figures from Magister Militum padded out with Eureka straddle cars and some Essex archers.
Cheers

My Biblical collection is focused on the first two pages of Book I. I have two Early Egyptian (upper and lower), Nubian, Early Libyan, Early Bedouin (all 3000BC), Elamites (2100BC) and Later Amorite (1894BC). The last named evolved from the extra figures lying about. The Egyptians are Black Hat and the rest Old Glory 15s.
On the ‘to do’ list are the Sumerians from Eureka, these still remain unopened.

OKE, Nubian, and Midianite for Biblical. Pre-Vedic, Vedic, and Skythians for the rest of the Book I lot.
Ihave figures for a lot more, need to get around to painting them...
If going for camels the Chariot and Essex ranges are the best and are compatible.

PAWS has forced me out of my comfort zone (Classical and Medieval) to look at Biblical armies and I can’t say I really love any of them. That said I do like the look of Sea People / Early Philistine Armies as well as the “Neo” Armies.
Anyway I just added LCh, 7 Hd and slingers to my Chariot Classical Indians to bring them up to Purple compliant Vedic and pre-Vedic Armies. Not the perfect figures for this period but good enough and now competition ready. Next step is to add the 3D printed Ganesh (that Redrob sent me - thanks mate) and a LCh with a blue charioteer (Krishna) to be the God and Hero in s HOTT Army.

Are there any 15mm I/34 Later Hebrews out there that excite anyone? --I have yet to find any. Old Glory 15's have Maccabean cavalry, spears, slingers and foot in captured Roman gear. They are listed under Successor states.

Philistines done. 6mm EAP project on the go but fancy adding in another DBA army.
Think this time it will either be dry camel force or a medieval archer fest.

Which version of the Philistines have you opted for Baldie? Got the a version done, do have the spear version as well but have enough Greek spears to last a lifetime.

Not sure the Philistine Spear troops looked like Greeks. More like Smurfs.
