London Peelers
« on: 25 May 2009, 08:13:50 PM »
Does anyone know of a source of 28mm 'Peelers' (mid 19th century London policemen wearing top hat and frock coat)? 'Heroic' 28mm preferred.

Struggling to think of any in tophats. Malamute probably knows of any if they exist, something in the back of my mind is telling me I have seen some somewhere.

Brigade games has a package they call Bow Street Runners. I think these are probably more like the Peelers you'r etalking about.
