They are HIGHLY cool, James.  I particularly like the khan with the falcon.

Awesome figure. I played with him in the game on Friday night. I didn't realize how converted he was. Highly impressive.

Pretty damned cool. Your collection puts mine to shame.

Although, I notice you're using the Bicorne Mahdist gun crew. Can I ask why? I bought some a while back, and can honestly say they are the worst figures I have ever seen. I couldn't bring myself to paint them...

I got them because the price was right. My friend Don was shutting down his attempt to produce under license Bicorne minis and he gave me a huge box of his left over Colonial stock.

I needed gunners in turbans and these guys were in the box.

Bicorne don't look too bad en masse once painted but they aren't showpiece figures.

I haven't noticed if the Perry's produce turbaned artillery crew yet.
