Which mini do you know or prefer ?
-
Boot Hill Miniatures seems the best and does foot and mounted version: http://www.boothillminiatures.co.uk/index.htm (http://www.boothillminiatures.co.uk/index.htm)
There are also versions from Artizan Designs (nice), Reaper Miniatures (sword too big), Blue Moon (dodgy sculpt) and Lance and Laser (out of production?).
-
I have all of them and find the Boothill Miniatures set the most useful. But, they all have potential for gaming. Artisan has a nice one (I think the first or second Zorro I bought.)
I thought the Frog God (real name and company name slips my mind) still produces the L&L one (in the superhero line - there is a compatible female figure as a person of interest.)
Gracias,

I have the Artizan one. I like it a lot!

Now come on, you can't just bait the hook like that and leave us hanging! Frog God? ;D ???

Well, I could... but I won't.
Correct answer - http://www.teamfrog.com/index2.htm - I think the owner's e-mail once referred to something akin to that moniker.

Alas, I don't see it anywhere!
Aside, Wow, I didn't know about the Monty Python skit. Or the "girl" videos...

I would have to say the Boot Hill Miniatures version (but then I would wouldn't I ;) lol)

As well as the masked bandit himself there are presidial troops, a fat sargento, dastardly governor etc. I plan to add to the range next year with a tax collector set and some Mexican civilians including Don's, Vaqueros and ladies. :)

Boot Hill without a doubt, one of my all time favourite figures of all time :-*

Nice. I'm waiting for a stretch without large sculpting, moudling or casting costs to order the lot of them.

I'd have to agree with that too... :D

I have (and like) that figure - but it's more "Son of Zorro" or even a less known predecessor to Zorro in my mind.
Just mi dos centavos.

It was Malamute's Zorro figures that broke the spine of my decision to leave 25/28 mm figures. Then the soldados from DPS and 500 Nations Comanches that put the idea to rest pretty much permanently. Finding adequate (if slightly inaccurate) figures for non-missionary California indians was icing on the cake.

Glenn,
Please enlighten us about DPS? Links?

Sorry, "Glennese" (bureaucratic bad habit) for Dayton Painting Services which carries the (IIRC the London War Room) Soldados de Cuera figures. http://www.dpcltdcom.org/ Radetsky AT prodigy DOT com is the contact e-mail.
They are a bit of a niche, (Ya' think, Glenn? ::) just a little?) so I asked about them and he sent a virtual catalog where all the figures are listed. I don't see them on the web age right away.
Gracias,
Glenn

I got the Artizan, Reaper and Boot Hill...
And I prefer the Artizan. But then again, I think his sculpts are great.
The Boot Hill was a VERY close second.
I really don't think you can go wrong with either.
