I wouldn't say that Peter Pig and Blue Moon are anywhere near compatible, but I like your ideas of getting more offerings out there in 18mm. I keep looking at the Blue Moon Legion of the United States and hope they finish the range with correct figures some day soon. I cover what is missing on a blog post from some months ago: link That would also hopefully mean even more Indians to go against the Legion, along with some additional personality figures, like Little Turtle, Blue Jacket, Buckongahelas, etc. And then of course expand into the War of 1812 period with Tecumseh, Tenskwatawa, and others. If I ever won the lottery I would have all sorts of figures created…of course that would mean I would have to buy a lottery ticket wouldn't it? :) |

I was told that the reason that manufacturers don't do many personality figures as people will buy only one when they will buy 12 for a firing line. Mark |

True, but a mixed bag of personalities for three conflicts might be workable, as you can use the "wrong" figures for whichever period you are gaming as more generic/nondescript commanders. Native dress didn't change that much between 1750 and 1800, although the European clothing they wore would have. |

I think the middle figure in the 'Indian Chiefs' set from the Minifigs Montclam and Wolfe range link might be intended to be or at least based on Joseph Brant:

Marco56 Yes but they can ( and do ) sell them for more which won't cost much compared to the " line" buying. Then everyone wants the funny stuff. |

I wish they would do more personality figures but when I inquired about them that's when I was told in the above post. Mark |
