Sheriff Ben Howard, here shown as mounted and on foot. Made from the Gunfighters and Mounted Gunfighters sets.
Like the current Gunfighters set, the Mounted Gunfighters box contains 10 miniatures so that you can replicate your foot posse on horseback.

Great to see a mounted set to go alongside the foot figures.

Although I'm really looking forward to this release! I would like to see STLs to print my own. Same thing with Knuckleduster/Gunfighter's Ball. Forrest creates the figures with a computer so releasing the STLs is an easy decision. I suspect he's not releasing STLs of his whole line due to piracy concerns, so he's watching the effect on his sales.

We will never do stl's for any of our plastic ranges.

Love the idea of being able to make foot and mounted versions of the same characters. In!

Mine have arrived* I have done some assembly. They look good, and I love being able to make foot and mounted versions of the same characters. Thanks, Great Escape Games!
I was happy to see they scale nicely with the Knuckleduster faction figures I have. The Dead Man's Hand horses are much nicer than the Knuckleduster ones, though - my Knuckleduster horses have weird leg musculature and came with a with a lot of flash on them. Happily, the riders are excellent sculpts and were largely flash free. Sadly, those Knuckleduster riders won't fit on the excellent DMH horses.
Looking forward to the next plastic set release(s).

*Great Escape Games mailed the package promptly, and it crossed the Atlantic in good time. It took about three days to clear customs... and then the U.S. postal service took the better part of two weeks to deliver it to me. Still, better than the package I (living in Texas) sent to my brother (in Tennessee) for Christmas, which took almost a month and had stops in Guam and Hawaii before safely landing.
