I doubt any will make it across the Atlantic, but it's the kind of thing I might be interested in. Some of those old minis had a character you just don't see nowadays, and IME ones '80s minis are still pretty compatible with modern ones; very few are 'true' 25mm (exception: Prince August cast-your-owns), more like 28mm to today's 32mm or so.Simonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01173759805310975320noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7487871339000666216.post-15424357738931684682010-03-08T13:26:17.979-05:002010-03-08T13:26:17.979-05:00I am firmly in the use of miniatures camp since my...I am firmly in the use of miniatures camp since my earliest days. I use/love/need minis, and this is good news for somebody who was around when the old companies were making great miniatures. One of the greatest joys, as a player at least, is finding just the right mini for their mook. And I have always loved finding a great mini, and basing a new NPC around it. It is all an important part of the overall fun of the hobby for me.Kevin Machttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14122665488285424578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7487871339000666216.post-58464050652881551632010-03-08T13:24:47.641-05:002010-03-08T13:24:47.641-05:00DUDE.

I haven't painted figures in a while, mostly because of having a little girl who wants to be a part of everything Mommy and Daddy do, and it's never been feasible for her to paint up a figure.<br /><br />Well, now she's a little older, which means it's an activity more suited to her age...and the figs will be cheap...and my wife and I can paint <i>with</i> her.<br /><br />Plus, I ♥ old-school minis.Dr Rotwanghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16750632906878388570noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7487871339000666216.post-85588065205996791702010-03-08T13:21:34.882-05:002010-03-08T13:21:34.882-05:00In any case, it's a great time to be using min...<i>In any case, it's a great time to be using miniatures in old school fantasy games! </i><br /><br />Blasphemy!<br /><br />;DAaron E.
