Saginaw, If you decide to got the Foundry route, I have a sizeable number, mostly painted, with which I can part. Contact me at jmcp1650 at comcast dot net (removing the spaces and substituting the symbols for the words). Jim Jackson, MS |

Do they have a Roger Casement figure? Good for the Congo or the Easter Rebellion- |
