*small.
It is pretty but I must do the battles of Marlborough and Eugene. I’ve always wanted to since I was a much smaller boy.
It’s likely 20 or 15mm - but one base will represent a fighting unit...
Even though I rather tend towards 20mm I must say that the variety and quality of what 15/18mm has to offer is astonishing.
You may have seen this site which is excellent for background informatiion.....

I have a liking for freakishly weird toys so, if I weren't doing 20mm I'd go for the Lancashire Games 18mm offerings. Not really compatible with much else but really cute.....and mind numbingly cheap!

Check out the battle packs........and there's usually two or three sales per year.
I love these little fellas. I wish I could justify having some.

I thought Lancashire Games 18mm is 20mm?

No they aren’t running around waving their arms in the air or bayoneting the ground so can’t be proper 20mm

I know what you mean but really, the LG 15/18mm stuff isn't quite 20mm. But it's very, very close.

Thank you EB that is a good site.
I had looked and quite fancied the Lancashire, I’m just not keen on the horses...
What do you think of the blu moon range?

The Blue Moon stuff is very very good...a long way from being 15mm...but still very nice.
The Lurkio 15mm figures are quite nice too.

It just so happens that I have a load of Blue Moon GNW figures that need a good home............cheap!
Actually, as Paul says, they are very nice. Slim 18mils.
The Minifigs chaps are a bit quirky but I like them....the problem with Minifigs is that there's no variety and sometimes the posing of the figures is a bit odd.
