Does anyone out there have any pics of the Dixon wagons?

I was looking at buying one or two of the following but am not keen on buying blind.

(about three quarters of the way down the page)

CW2(a) Prairie Schooner (covered wagon) complete with cover
CW3(b) General purpose Wagon with cover.

Thanks for your time peeps.

These wagons are built to scale for Dixon miniatures. They would be a shade small for today's 28mm miniatures. I have the chuck wagon but no pics though. Nice models with loads of detail.

I've got plenty of dixon mini's that I use with foundry (old and new) and artizan. The scale should be ok. (well the Dixon stage coach I have is fine anyhow)
I just wanted to see what they looked like.

Cheers

I too have some DIXON wagons ( sorry no pictures ) they are sturdy once put together, small issue but I think there's only 1 driver for all the wagons, either that or I've just being unlucky and got the same head variant every time ! They paint up nice and the mule team really makes the piece! I know DIXON ain't everyone's cup of tea but I luv em, hope that helps !

I have only a buckboard wagon (non covered) but I do not remember any problem with the assembly of the model.
