for those not fully acquainted with British television series (sorry I grown up only with the Professionals and Inspector Barnaby, the only one that were aired there...) from which one they are from? Usually I can recognize Crooked Dice stuff but this time I am at loss.

Below is a link to my blog. It's the place where I write uninteresting things about little toy soldiers. I do this because I refuse to grow up and behave like an adult.

Cracking paintjobs as always. Like the sound of the crims. Hopefully with a balaclava/hooded/ninja type head to convert some of those Minions with would be good.
