All my 30mm Spencer Smith ACW cavalry have both mounted and dismounted figures as well as empty horses and horse holders. |

Ditto to Jim for my VBCW mounted figures, whether on bicycles, horses or motorcycles. Anyone recall Jack Scruby's plan for dismounting figures? He made the riders with a long sword to form a tripod with legs of riders, so you could just take the figures off the horses and they would stand up. |

For figures without swords Jack used to solder a length of steel wire on one foot; left unattached to the horse, this "ski" would allow the figure to stand on the table without the necessity of a separate dismounted stand. |
