I want to add a small mercenary team to my modern 54mm world. Inspired by movies like dogs of war and wild geese, these 5 guys would take on small missions or be the core of a larger merc unit. I want them to be unique characters. So here listed is the team. Commander- " the major" . Looking to use airfix brit para officer pointing
"Oz" looking to use airfix aussie kneeling bren gunner. "Lime" looking to use airfix brit commando kneeling bren gunner. "Scottie" looking to use matchbox brit 8th army kneeling bren gunner. "Jock" looking to use matchbox brit 8th army standing bren gunner. I have AIP Arabs i would trade at a two arab to one merc ratio. For trades send an email titled 54mm to joesmerdock@yahoo.com Thanks |

Should that be "Doggies"? Sorry, can't help with trades. Good Luck! |

Dogeese is a blend of dog and geese as referenced to the movie titles. A. Way of combining the two. |

Couple options: 1. [Buy] Try Gerardo at toysoldiersdepot.com. You'll have to email him to ask about loose figs. 2. [Buy] Try Kent at toysoldierhq.com. Check his site. You can also email him. 3. [Trade] I probably have the loose Airfix already. If I go to Heart of the South in two weeks, I'll try to get all 5 for you. - Cort |

That's one hell of a lot of bren-guns! I probably have all these figures in my collection – if you are still looking let me know and I will dig them out for you, no trade needed. |

What about a Billie Fish (Airfix Ghurka) ? |

I have failed to find the other two, sorry, but have chucked in a couple of others in compensation
Will package them up and post ASAP. If anyone else is looking for free 54mm single figures, get in touch. I might ask for some postage though. |
