Reading Richard Barber's thread TMP link prompted me to ask why no 15mm US troops in Montana hats?
With all of the obsure wars and armies that get covered by 15mm ranges why does the 1916-1918 US Army on the Mexican border never get the range it deserves
I know Minifigs do a pack of US troops in Montana hats but they are in a marching pose and whilst they look great for the 'Over There' parade, they do look a tad out of place chasing Villa around northern Mexico
I've tried headswaps using Peter Pigs' heads (8. US Doughboy hat) and various bodies , the SCW Spanish Foreign Legion, 1914 British cavalry and Romans for example but they don't look quite right
Come on you 15mm manufacturers surely the 1916-18 US army on the Mexican border must be THE obsure army for 2010
Using Peter Pig's packing model as an example 3 packs would cover the range
Pack 1 – 8 infantry/dismounted cavalry in 2/3 poses with rifles or pistols
Pack 2 – 4 cavalry in 2/3 poses with rifles or pistols
Pack 3 – 1 mg + 2 crew, 2 officer, 2 gun crew
I promise to buy at least 1 pack of each if they are ever produced
