The Figures were another Auckland band who never recorded, but were important as being a group with members who influenced the scene in later years.

Jack Stradwick and Brian Harris had previously played together in one of Peter Posa's many combos. Jack and Dan Stradwick had also played in a group called the Jet Blacks. The Figures were formed in 1965 and when John Kristian left in 1966, they evolved into the Action, by adding John Bissett, from the Mods, on keyboards, and eventually Evan Silva as vocalist.
