Cheers for that Kommando - I should have said that I'm not keen on the equivilent Foundry ranges, too static and sold in overlarge packs for my skirmish needs. Plus that would be too easy....
Major - ah, excellent, thanks for that, I did browse those, but couldn't confirm which end of the spectrum they were at.
I'm afraid I'm a bit of a scale-nazi and already have a small portion of the lead mountain that I bought on spec, dismissed as unusable, but then kept; ('I'm sure I can use them for...errr.').
I was looking at the Warlord metal dismounted Dragoons as I like the idea of boots (I'm still quite Hollywood, I admit) but have no idea if they are as chunky as the plastics.
