Response to Khusru

Khusru left a comment asking about Mexican figure sources - besides Peter Pig.  Best source is Old Glory's Blue Moon figures - look through the Mexican wars, including early 20th century revolution - for both armed and unarmed civilians for Mexico and other civilians - and other ranges as well, never know what might work.  Also, look at the Peter Pig Mexican revolution range - and explore their other ranges for earlier or later periods for useful figures.  Peter Pig packs always have duplicates; Blue Moon sometimes have all unique poses - or far fewer duplicates.  Another option is to hunt through QRF ranges for civilians beyond the Yellow Ribbon range, again earlier and later.  And there are a few here and there in Minifigs Old West sets (through Caliver these days I believe).  Far more unarmed civilians in 15 mm than at first blush - just have to do some digging and look through a 'different lense' to see how a given figure will work in an unintended period.   

As to when will the 'extra' figures be up for grabs and where - not sure yet but will start locally but feel free to contact me via a PM at Lead Adventure Forum as well if you have specific interests/needs.  Timing will be after I am certain I am done with the sorting.  See immediately preceding post for the why.

  1. Thank you. I split my time between the UK and US so postage wouldn't be a problem
