I need to man a US Gunboat/3rd Class Cruiser of the 1890', and would like to have the ship's company in the early version of the Dixie Cup Hat
Old Glory does a landing party for Vera Cruz – but they are carrying rifles. I like to find some figures for deck gun crews, bridge crews, etc
I have used figures in the past from Old Glory's Boxer Range – but would like some different figures more "American" looking

Tiger miniatures has a five figure US Naval crew, 28mm, ca 1898, without guns. Available in the US from recreationalconflict.com and UK from tigerminiatures.co.uk |

Katnmoose: Do you see little 'zzz' by his nick? Tends to suggest he's not been seen in these parts for a long time. ;->= [Last post, March of 2012] Scott: Have this naggin' feeling I've seen something apropos, but not coming up with sources. Sorry! Doug |

@TheBeast: the "ZZZ" icon shows up if you haven't been on in something like 6 months, so it's possible he will show back up and answer. But you are right, he hasn't been on the boards since 2012. @ScottWashburn: QRF does a Naval Landing Party in their Spanish-American War sets, plus US Marines. Otherwise, I think you need to raid the various Boxer Rebellion ranges. |

I think I may have been on QRF's site recently, so may have been that 'brain-itch' I had. Thanks! Doug Edit: And I know other people have a life, but six months without posting IS a long damn for me. ;->= Edit, part deux: And allow me this opportunity to wish all a safe and happy Life Day! |
