Dunno but I don't want to risk it.

Well the first batch of Eureka SYW figures have yet to arrive, but it's payday again, so I've stuck in another order... :)

My mate Phil also bought my remaining Macedonian odds and sods (after a former friend sold the vast majority of the army that I didn't even know he had in his possession...). By way of payment he's ordered me a spanking new French SYW army from Eureka. As there's no cash or bank transactions involved, this fresh acquisition should completely escape the hawk-like vision of the Memsahib... :)

Oh dear, can anyone else spot the rookie error here?

Of course it is... It's almost a present that would be churlish to refuse...

He's recently arrived from England and apparently it's 'cultural' for you lot, so it might be considered racist to refuse. :oops:

Denying their identity, very serious. That'll get you three years in an HR re education camp.

They're lovely sculpts. I'm gradually working my way through an Austrian army from Eureka.

The first batch of Eurekas arrived yesterday and I'm just sorting through them now. :thumbs: They're absolutely gorgeous figures and absolutely no taller than Old Glory 15s, while being distinctly less 'chunky', which possibly makes them appear taller. Whatever, they'll fit in perfectly with my existing collection. :thumbs:
