Some Artizan Cavalry in the 1880's uniform and Custer who seems to have survived the Big Horn somehow;

Have had a worrying longing of late for Hollywood style troopers in braces, white hats and yellow neckerchiefs and officers in plastron shirts with brass buttons, recreate some of the classic 1950's westerns.

There's a Heath Ledger film about that kind of longing. Won lots of awards as I recall.

Ah a Heath Ledger figure? Would it be a knight, a redcoat or Australian bush ranger?

It would be a Joker. Indubitably.
