The trouble with miniatures is that you're mostly limited to what the
manufacturers offer, unless you're a talented sculptor yourself (I for one
can virtually scratchbuild a 54mm figure given some basic parts like a head,
hands, feet, and "inspiration," but I won't even try it in 25mm...)
I did like those Lone Star figures you had there, Stefan... Too bad they
seem to be out of production (My guess is that they are Grenadier, who made
SR figures before Ral Partha did. Ral Partha's LS pack seems just a bit too
much of a rip-off to me -- 5 figures, of which 4 are identical...)
