Hi
Does anyone have , for sale , some of the Dixon miniature Samurai lords 15mm ?
You can only buy them in batches of 5 from miniature figurines in the UK .
Cheers

The samurai lords that are on the Minifigs/Caliver site are Two Dragons Productions, who were once associated with Dixon.

The figures are priced individually, not in packs of 5, at £6.25 GBP each. I consider that very expensive for a single 15mm figure, especially as the horses aren't included.

£6.00 GBP for a single figure…. I assumed it was a pack of five !
If I get a chance I will email minifigs and check
I mean they are beautiful figures …. But £6.00 GBP is expensive

And yes they are the Two Dragons sculpts …. An awesome range

Love the Sculpts

Caviler got them to me quickly in US

OP, cavalry is listed in packs of 5, the Samurai Lord figures are listed as individual figures. Crazy if it is not a typo.

All the other Two Dragons ranges have several miniatures bagged up together for around the same price , it clearly shows that on the listing…
Fingers crossed

cantbeatdavy,
I faced a similar problem with some of the 30 figure Old Glory packages. Eventually, I realized that, if I only wanted half a package (how many American Indian villagers do you really need?), chances are there is somebody else out there who only wants half a package, particularly if some of them are duplicates. If you are willing to take a chance, you could order the whole package, then try to sell off the part of the package you don't want, either here on TMP or through other figure sales arrangements to recoup some of your expenses.

You might want to try to contact the Minifigs/Matchlock folks and ask for clarification. I suspect the 6.25 figure may be an error, as the Anglo-Norman cavalry in the Two Dragons "Dark Ages" line is 1.35 for a single figure (which also apparently includes the horse).

If you go to the Miniature Figurines web site:

link

and hover your mouse over the options, it tells you what you get in a pack. Either a mounted Lord on a horse with two retainers or a seated Lord and four retainers.

David:
Thanks for that, in all the times I've visited the MF site I never noticed that! But IMHO the product description should be edited to show that, it's too easy to miss and as CBD notes you might not even be able to see it on a phone. Anyone from the site reading this thread?

Love TWO Dragon Samurai. My only professionally painted castings. Every general is accurate as are their messengers. Every mounted warrior is painted differently. Every foot warrior also has slight paint differences between them.

Still "waiting " to get near a laptop !!
And I agree awesome figures !!
Hope to get some soon
