Very nice, I was looking at those the other day... That's one hefty spear! What do you think of the pack? I was worried they'd be too similar, and you didn't like the Copplestone Chinese Pirate figures, are these better?

Thanks all

Work week hopefully, I am well on track but will lose tomorrow as I have to go to the hospital

It was to test a theory and I was proven correct ;)

Yes I prefer these.  They do have telegraph poles but life is too short to swap the ends onto wire.  The pirates are nice figures but when you block paint twenty of them you see just how lazy the conversions were and it niggled.  They are a bit more "cartoony" than these too.

Anyways, to quote Genesis - then there were three



and four and five



I think these look a bit poo in the photos but I was as pleased with them in the flesh

cheers
