quick 1/72 update

Will Douglas, the coffee swillin' analog gamer, was nice enough to post a link to this page from Plastic Soldier Review with pics of all the Caesar brand 1/72 fantasy figures. Turns out you can get a plastic version of Gandalf in the adventurers set:The downside here is that four of the 19 figures in the box are random packs and so far I can't tell if the wizard is a sure thing or not.

    Okay, if you follow my link and scroll down to the pictures of the Adventurers, the ones I got are:

    First row:

    2 of the first one
    2 of the second one
    2 of the third one
    2 of the fourth one
    2 of the fifth one

    Second Row:

    2 of the first one
    1 of the second one
    2 of the third one
    1 of the fourth one
    2 of the fifth one
    2 of the sixth one

    Third Row:

    2 of the first one
    None of the second one

    Fourth Row:

    1 of the Big Guy.


    So yeah, I do have two of the Wizard type. If you get a box and don't get a Wizard, let me know; I'm sure we can arrange something.

    Thanks for the neat links Will and Jeff. I was browsing the Michigan toy site. If you go beyond strict fantasy, there is a wide array of historical ancient and medieval figures at reasonable prices. My future bad guys might happen to look like Assyrians or Polish knights.

    Very neat; I might just get back into minis. I had thousands back in the day. Lead, like the Gods intended, not pewter. :-)

    I'm guessing the fact that the elves look taller than the adventurers is because they're supposed to be moer Tolkeinesque than D&D-esque.
