The days of 'Desperado'

More figures from out of storage after the move. Not one of my 'major' periods but thought I'd share anyway.






A few more shots on the blog.

Interesting figures - they almost look 20mm for some reason.  I assume if they're from the 80's they're more close to proper 25mm?

They look like Dixon Minis to me!

@Philhendry, you are correct... they are Dixon. Thanks for jogging the memory. I'll make a change to the blog.

@Elbows, The Dixon are largish 25s. I think I bought them in the 1990s before the '28mm' blight began. The Pass 'O the North are more like traditional 25s.
