However I think that most periods you can think of come under that category, seems a long time ago when we all had to convert the old Airfix figures to what we needed.<br />I remember seeing the film Zulu and buying the Tarzan set for some native figures to represent Zulus and fighting them against British Napoleonics! Now people whinge if the buttons are painted the wrong color.Dave Huntley (sheepman)https://www.blogger.com/profile/14728830987896678578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6435533278284919252.post-32596605191371120082013-06-06T20:05:51.007+00:002013-06-06T20:05:51.007+00:00Dave,
