Cheers guys, massive mix of figures HMS Exeter, including Gringo 40's but larger numbers of Foundry Camrerone Range and Perrys of various ranges plus others. If any one is interested I have a number of posts on the painting progress and I name check all the manufacturers for each of the figures. For instance Perry Second Afghan War Bombay infantry with a head swap are the Imperial Mexicans.

Beautiful layout and figures. Thanks for showing. I have a few hundred of figures for that episode but not used for 20 years. This inspires me to play or sell :)

Cheers guys, Bobgnar suggest you get a couple of games in before deciding whether to sell them. I mean why not?
