Who's been a busy boy then :D

I have to admire your ability to pull all these interesting characters from such a diverse collection of sources (and your imagination of course)

So thats 3 rounds you could have entered in the LPL, even had a bonus round entry with those Prussians - bad boy lol

I say!
I particularly like Professor Ebenezer.
He reminds me of someone, but I just can't place him...  ::)

He'd make a jolly good Flashman as well, in some of his middle period adventures.

Nice work Nick  :)

Very nice, indeed!

A very nice execution of a theme. I always wondered what I have to do with those figures.
Now I know.
