Looking for Trotsky...
« on: 03 December 2012, 11:15:31 AM »


We heard rumours Trotsky was in England spreading his lies amongst the Red Armies engaged in the civil war...so we come to visit, and purge!

Very nice. Love the Stalin mini. Should not one of the troops have an ice axe?

I'm sure you have a Trotsky mini already but this artizan fella could do in a pince. Only a small green stuff gotie needed.

The sickle in the fruitful field;
The sword he sung a song of death,
But could not make the sickle yield."

That last one makes the Trot look too heroic. I want a figure making him look like a snivelling bookworm.

He had the heroic sailors at Kronstadt shot. Time for Joe to avenge them!

Copplestone's BC2 pack, the second figure from the left works for Trotsky.  Like it or not, he was the founder of the Red Army (not Stalin).

Is there a figure of Professor Calculus? That would fit I think...
