Personal Wants List - first ever post....


This is definitely sticking a cautious toe in the water - Ron, if this is inappropriate then please strangle it.


I'm currently working on adding a 1812-vintage Spanish division to my Allied Peninsular army. There is precious little in the way of suitable figures for this - if you don't want 1808 guys in bicorns or those pantomime grenadiers with the jelly-bags hanging from their hats. I have a number of these little OOP fellas - Minifigs s-range Spanish infantry advancing - catalog #SN-1s - and I could use a bunch more of them. Anybody have any? - painted? - unpainted?
Anybody fancy doing some casting? I approached Minifigs US, and they seemed quite interested in producing some copies, then suddenly the radio went dead, and now they won't reply. If anyone would be interested in a little judicious repro work - just in the interests of reseach, of course...
Seriously - anyone got any SN-1s, please get in touch.
Tony

Introduction

Hi to all,

So what is the purpose or reason for this blog?

I and a lot of folks have spare figures lying around and also need certain figures.

We can always offer these on Ebay and the like or we can trade these figures among friends and save some of our cash.

This is a repository for all who wish to use it.

Nobody owns the blog and only inappropriate posts will be moderated out - some tidying up and labelling may also take place for consistency of layout and ease of access only.

There is no intention of any unfair skimming of figures by the moderator and all sales are completed privately by the participants by email. That is why the posts are only moderated afterwards as above. Everybody sees them at the same time.

Comments and suggestions for improvement are welcome at anytime.

Good trading!

Ron
