BlueMoon are doing these as part of their Americana Range.
They doen't look half bad!

They seem to be kicking out quite a few different minis at the moment, including some ganster minis ( also in the Americana range ) although there aren't any photos at the moment.
I'm not sure of the scale of the minis and how well they match my other stuff but I might order a pack to have a look at.

Blimey - These guys aren't haning around, they are churning out new figures by the bucketload :lol:

Blue Moon are 28mm to the eye. Plus the bases are molded onto the figure.

Ahh the bases; IMO a real pain in the butt (deep down where you just acn not scratch...  :x ) - but some people like them.
For me it is just one more step in cleaning the mini... :(
cheers and keep on gaming, Agis - https://www.adpublishing.de

I feel your pain Agis.  :)

I do all our figures with bases as small as possible so that they are easier to clip off or get hidden in basing material. I hate molded bases.

Those huge bases are a bad idea, indeed. However, I certainly prefer small "flat blobs" beneath the figure feet to "slotta tabs", even if I actually use slottas for a project.

I saw these figures at Historicon and they are very nice.  If you purchase an Old Glory membership for $50, you get 40% off all Blue Moon miniatures, Westwind figures, Old Glory stuff, Old Glory Shipyards and Crusader Miniatures.  I picked up my card at Historicon and was able to get a really nice Spanish church with a removeable roof and separate bell tower. I think you have to spend about $137 to break even on the deal which I did and then some so now I am getting stuff off at 40% each time I order.
Victory is guaranteed to the last man standing, but always remember those whom you stepped on to get there!!
