All new gangs now available for preorder. I'll be placing an order for all of these.
Definitely getting a Pale Rider vibe from the Pinkertons.

I love this game,it's one of my faves and I will definitely get a copy at Salute.As far as the figures are concerned the Indians look decidedly chunky,esp. their heads plus they are leaning at some strange angles too?7th Cav look pretty cool as do the Banditos but I'm a little disappointed with the Pinkertons tbh...I have the Artizan ones already but was hoping for some more dynamic poses but not one is firing or even aiming?....with so many great sculptors out there you'd think that all sculptors would at least try to put some energy into their models' poses but too late now I suppose...feeling a litttle underwhelmed

Nope, I'm with ya.  I'm not stoked about the poses or sculpts, but they are acceptable to me.  Though now I remember that BS re-released their indians...hmmm.  lol  I haven't been blown away by any of the DMH figures (hence I don't own any), but I think they're decidedly okay.  It's rare nowadays for me to blown away by sculpts - I don't know if it's a tech thing but a ton of people are sculpting stuff now, and much of it as shockingly mediocre.

I like the soldiers here pretty well.  Don't care for the Pinkertons or the Banditos --- and I think the Indians are okay.  Overall, still a very reasonable line of OW minis.

I like the Indians, should mix well with the artizan ones. Foundry offerings are still to be beaten for Apache when I had them they were a little gem of a collection.

Pinkertons I can see what they have done to make them different form the artizan ones but still think bowler hats woul dahve been a bit better and the dusters seem a bit narrow, I want them more flowing etc.

Cavalry are pick of the bunch but again others out there as good. Mexicans are a take it or leave it, one or two I would pick up indivudally but already have around 15 banditos so would be only on a whim ;D

Can`t wait for the rules expeansion as played a couple of games and thorooughly enjoyed them :D

Yes, I'm really only excited with the apaches.   Saying that, forget pinkertons, the leader is clearly based on the chap at the end of Pale Rider.....nice .

Some legends next up, a not-Elam Ferguson from Hell On Wheels and a not-Jeff Bridges as Rooster Cogburn in True Grit. The shopping list gets bigger...

Agreed! Little Bill, William Munny, English Bob, Ned, the Kid and all the others. Some great scenarios there too.

Nice, Elam is a must buy.
I am looking for the following Deadlands minis:  Shotgun Thug, Lost Soul, Cleaners, Railroad Workers & Feral Dead. If you have any of these minis, or if you are one, please send me a PM.
