I will need to drag the kids to Toys'R'Us at the weekend then.
Bullshot has one of those that he uses as a staff car for his VSF Prussians

Aarrggh! They are lovely models with loads of VSF potential. I shall have to pop into my local Toys R Us.

Thanks for posting

The two robots from the movie Astro Boy are available at McDonalds. I've been eyeing one of them for a while:

The golden compass carriages are 99p and the twin bag airships are 49p at least they were 04/11/09 in Toys R Us Gateshaed MetroCentre got loads already but got three each and picked up a twin pack of Terminators tied to last film for £2.99 because the bulker of the two had a mini gun!! the slimer one seems to be armed with a crowbar?

Nice cheap clockwork soldier with a big hammer. You can find them online for around $1.50 apiece. What's not to love?

Somewhat unimaginatively, it's called a Hammerer.

Well, then I'll buy one, paint it in Swedish colours, and call it 'Peder'.

Then Hammers will probably have something nasty for me the next time we meet

In my VSF game, Germany is almost wiped out (catastrophe involving a poison gas factory), and only a few mad aristocrats and madder scientists survive. Krupp and Bismark rule the country now, which is mostly blasted wastes.

Still, the Germans are the strongest nation on the planet, as Herr Krupp's automated factories turn out armies of automata including the above-mentioned Hammerers, these guys for infantry:

and half a dozen land leviathans:

The whole army includes only three human figures from Brigade Games: a mad scientist (Krupp), a Prussian aristocrat (Bismark) and a shady figure in long trench coat and peaked cap known only as Herr Kapitan...

Other than that, all I have are a few German Imperial flags, and the whole thing is ready to go, and give my VSF British and Russians no end of fits.

Some day, I'll figure out how to work a camera

, and put up some photos.

One thing though. While it's a nice model, the piece is badly balanced, and has a tendency to fall over. Unless you are going to remount it, the easiest thing is to glue a penny under it's base.

Don't think anyone has mentioned Gary Mitchell's mini's here. I think the the Cepholod might be of special interest, but there are other aliens that might be of interest.

Our nearest Toys'r'Us has a whole bunch of the Golden Compass carriage at about £5 a piece. That's discounted.... pretty steep, like anything else in this darn country...

Some of those look pretty good. You could make a nice aero-fleet out of the dirigibles and balloons.
