Perry War of the Roses casualty wagon and labourers

Not a very festive sentiment! but I thought I'd draw your attention to the latest additions to the metal workbench. They include 2 carts with wounded and dead for the Wars of the Roses/European Armies ranges plus casualties and labourers for the same. They should be out by the end of January.

Oh, now that sounds interesting...

And this set is blinkin' lovely:



I can see these being an addition to my forces that I didn't even know I needed.

I like the 'diving one-handed catch on the boundary' pose. But I didn't think they played cricket in the 15th Century...

The other poses in that pack must go with the first pack to represent the England team in their open-top cart ride through London after they secured their 1475 Ashes victory. I assume the one holding his head to be that stout yeoman whose limbs were made in England, Freddye Flintoffe.

Lovely looking figures, the expansion of this range is great!

No, just on their mailing list.  Must get these, but I have an army of unopened WotR at home that they will add to.

Well, I will try only to buy additions to ranges in 2012, and clear the backlog.

The civilians are lovely!
Hopefully we'll see one or two more civilian sets for the 15th century from the Perrys, I haven't seen any others on the market.

No, I only said that i wouldn't buy a new period, not that I wouldn't add to my ongoing work..............  :D

Not forgetting that my last period, IM, was your fault!  :)

Picked up a copy of The Last Mughal yesterday for free, though.........  :-*

The cart and the labourers are a must have.

Hmmm. My WotR army gets bigger .... Winter project currently standing at 250 minis with the first 12 (yep only the first 12) on the paint bench. ;-)
My LAF Gallery is HERE
Minis (foot & mounted) finished in 2024 = 32
(2023 = 151; 2022 = 204; 2021 = 123; 2020 = ???)
