Or 18mm. The Grand Turk could be sitting on his throne, reclining in his seraglio, mounted on his horse, or just standing around being Grand and Turkish. Viziers, eunuch guards, and harem dancers would also be a plus.

Thanks!

Sir, conduct his eminence over to Essex and put him astride his favorite hunting elephant and find the man riding on the flying carpet, he makes a perfect Sultan figure replete with a fancy Persian rug to sit on (just do away with the flying stand). I believe his name is MOG, 17th in his line:

And you can get him riding on an elephant, too!

While there, search around for other suitable figures - I'm not sure if that's where I found my harem guards but I think it was. Check Peter Pig for dancing girls (naked but easily modified) and, if you can get in touch with him and get him to fulfill your order, the CUB range from The Quartermaster has some very useful figures - at least for the ladies of the seraglio. All mine are long out of their packages and I have so much that I can't recall where they all came from - but the stuff is definitely out there.
