Couldn't tell you, I only got this one model, but you never know. If they did a 'Sons of Katie Elder' set I think I'd faint from over-excitement.
I'd do the same for Once Upon a Time in the West.
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.

Doc Holliday, Val Kilmer style .... "I'm your huckleberry."


I haven't started painting mine yet - but I have looked at them.  I thought there was something familiar about the odd figure here and there - particularly that one, but I hadn't 'put two and two together'. 

GGGRRRR!!!!! Now I'm going to be hunting around all the ranges of 'cowboy' figures, looking for movie characters. LOL!

I had to take the Indian pic down, I had jumped the gun by a few months on that one.

To make up for it I'll show you 'Trixie' (from 'Deadwood' fame) and a cowboy (from John Wayne's 'The Cowboys') from the 'Armed Citizens' boxed set.

'Sir John ejaculated explosively, sitting up in his chair.' ... 'The Black Gang'.

You might survive.  ;) Nick might have just bailed you out.

Lovely painting!  Is Trixie very tall, or the cowboy very short?

The cowboy has to be very small. Look at his proportions. Billy the Kid? ;)

The way you paint them ist realy good!
What a joy it would be, to see such well painted figures on a beautiful western table. I would love to play a game.
Bad for me, that i have to spend days of work to be at this point. *g*

Thank's for the pictures.
I like how you paint the clothes. The stripes on the "skirt" are so well done!

Greetings,
Jan

A not Duke and a not Deano would be right up there at the top of my must have list ;D

Yup, there's a serious lack of decent Duke figures available.

Go on Nick you know you want to..  ;)  lol

It's a child.

You people need some culture .... John Wayne, 'The Cowboys'? Never seen it? He takes a bunch of children across the plains to work as cowboys. Great film.

Why are they so coy about their figures? All the teasing they did when the range first came out just succeeded in pissing me off! I don't see the other old west manufacturers acting like Sunday school teachers in a lap dancing club.  ::)

I'll still buy them though, I wasn't that pissed off  lol

Lovely paintwork again Mr Cubs  :-*
