Once I made the decision to "scratch my itch" and seriously consider gaming the Wild West in 28mm scale I have been scouring many websites for suitable figures and scenery. Plus, I already had a large collection of figures that I had been buying in this scale from the 1980's onwards. <br /><br />It is so long since I last watched "Paint Your Wagon" that I can barely remember anything at all about it, so I'll just take your word about the Brothel minis. I do think, however, that they are very generic.Vampifanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11318241813130102121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8423998700545338590.post-23041832066897119332016-10-27T21:08:07.869+01:002016-10-27T21:08:07.869+01:00HahahahaHahahahaDa Gobbohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09482323500538272232noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8423998700545338590.post-25554142017739791162016-10-27T20:55:36.903+01:002016-10-27T20:55:36.903+01:00Nice figures Bryan and of course a must for any wi...Nice figures Bryan and of course a must for any wild west frontier town is gun fodder (I mean townsfolk sorry), I had to laugh at the last line of your post though....<br /><br />"All are useful figures even if they won't see much action".<br /><br />How does the brothel stay open then?<br /><br />Cheers Roger.Dick Garrisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01653744597413710281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8423998700545338590.post-12242611957676286552016-10-27T19:29:55.102+01:002016-10-27T19:29:55.102+01:00The Chinese figures are great!!The Chinese figures are great!!Ray Rousellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07352596392520905197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8423998700545338590.post-11022593296033973412016-10-27T18:42:16.898+01:002016-10-27T18:42:16.898+01:00Very nice, Bryan.
