Thank all!

VB, the answer to that, is Greg Stafford, high on mescaline, in his sweat lodge.

Dilophosaurus

Thanks - I knew they were too small for Velociraptors; plus they had that little fan thing that emerged from their necks when they were angry which 'raptors didn't have. Any idea how scientists knew they did the projectile vomiting thing?

Yes, pure damn fiction
Just like the expanding neck frill thing, which may have been a misunderstanding by the Jurassic Park Producers as to what a "crest" was

Perhaps surprisingly for a major Hollywood movie the facts were stretched/expanded/made up to make the film more entertaining As far as I know there are no confirmed venomous dinos. Maybe you'll sleep better at night for that

I think a lot of the fillum industry's "understanding" of dinosaurs comes from observing the weirder members of the modern reptile world (that's genuine reptiles, not journalists), hence some of the "improvisations" perhaps?

First group of Spanish Geurillas from Front Rank

Very nice.

Indeed. Nice.

Lovely looking figures.



Willz.

Nice work and good to see some Napoleonics even though they are irregular and not fancy plumed troops etc
What are these going to be used for Jeremiah Obadiah?

Thanks All!

VB, going to use them for SP2. I have some Spanish Militia on the desk at the moment.

I feel British are so over-done for the Peninsula and thought Spanish might be fun
