You certianly do. I think this has been asked before, but how many of these 'toy soldier' figures have you got? It must be an awful lot.

[ushistoryprof]

Any idea which manufacturer did the Legion figures?

I do indeed! From left to right (or right to left), they are: Artizan, Blue Moon, Artizan, Blue Moon and Artizan.

Hi Answer_is_42 (or can I call you 42?),

I haven't a clue how many there are at present. I'm busy painting up two x 36 figure Austrian line infantry regiments and one x 24 figure Austrian grenze regiment to field against two x 32 figure Ottoman 'line' and one x 32 figure Ottoman 'skirmisher' ortas. The Ottoman numbers may change as I get more information on there...formations.

Of course, plans are liable to change if I see an interesting unit I want to paint...or if an unusually busy week means painting a 'fall back' unit instead.


Cheers,

Moriarty, I imagine that you have a dedicated war-room lined with glass-fronted display cases filled with rank upon rank of your brightly-coloured figures.....thar'sands of 'em.  Lovely. 

[Moriarty]

Nah, couldn't be done with the dusting/polishing required :-)

All my little lead men (and not a few plastic ones) are in boxes, plotting world domination. The only time they see light of day is when they're due on the table for a game. As to 'thar'sands', well... I won't tell if you won't ;-)
