I have submitted the news bit to Bill but in the mean time I know that there are those who are very anxious to see what this years figures, "Mission California" look like. I now have the picture on both the Old Glory 25s and the Blue Moon Manufacturing web sites. We are very excited about this years set of figures and really hope you enjoy them. If you are not an Old Glory Army Member and want to purchase them, they are all set up on both sites and ready to order. Here are the links to them on the sites.

Sweet! Not my scale but very tempting none the less.

Two bits, four bits, six bits, a peso! All for Zorro stand up and say so!!!!

Looks good.

I think something happened to the poor mounted Zorro's head in Photoshop!

Those are nice! I just loved the Blue Moon Cowboys, so these may be enough to goad me into renewing my OG Army membership. (That and I need some more 2nd Gen ACW; maybe some late Romans and some 1/600 ironclads…)
Very tempting! Thanks, Rob.

Cool, will that range get any other releases?

Not diggin' 'em. They kinda look wonky to me… Kinda thin… And Zorro looks like a 'pencil necked geek'…

These are going to be great for Gloire. Just what I need is another period. Oh well.

Your looking at a photo. The head on the mounted Zorro is the same head on the dismounted zorro. Russ

A fun-looking set of figures.

Now, see, this is a missed marketing opportunity. In California 4th graders have to build replicas of one of the Spanish Missions. The styrofoam kits aren't to scale with each other link and the human and animal figures that are available are toylike. Pegasus makes some 1/48 scale Indians to go with the larger scale kits, but there are a couple where 25mm figs would be appropriate.

These should be out there at Michaels and Joann's Fabrics!!!

Excellent. I'll definitely renew, to get them and more.

Where are Bernardo and Don Diego?

I'll get mine when I renew at Fall In.

Rodrick, IMEX has Mexican round hat cavalry dismounted, and mounted round hat cavalry in the works. Pegasus does Friars in their Indian Mission set. Ever think of sculpting a 1/72 personalities set for Zorro? Throw in some Mexican Peasants for Zorro to save and rally, and you might have something that would be marketable.

Have the figures in hand and they are much better than the photos on the websites. I hope that Blue Moon expands the range – need more minions. Thinking of making a whip in the maked man's hand so I can have Do Q, Son of Zorro!

Tom Reed24 Sep 2009 6:24 a.m. PST

Thinking about doing my Zorro as The Gay Blade. The only thing I'm not sure about is how dark to make Mr. Hamiltons skin!

I like them! These are a good incentive to rejoin, if I ever get the cash to buy figures in numbers again.
