[QUOTE="CRG, post: 282481, member: 5867"] I know what you mean. I've got quite a few of them. My biggest problem is that I'm frankly full of human halbrediers between that and Battlemasters. You do occasionally see them around in toy stores and outlests - Kaybee or local stores espescially. You've got no change at Toys-r-Us as they cycle their inventory well and generally do a good job of moving out the older stuff. One year in recent past (not more than 5 years ago) my friends and I went out and bought each other a bunch of board games and cheesey toys (which is funny only considering our age) for Christmas. My mother came over to the house as it was my daughter's first chirstmas and was shocked to see that, yes indeed, Mall Madness and Dinosaur Mountain were not for my daughter but was instead placed under the tree for me...the parts were too small for her anyway, not suitable for children over 3. Adults? No problem. Somewhere around here I have an unopened Weapons & Warriors Pirate Battle Game box. Bought it for the boats. The mounted archers have the most potential for me. You don't see many of those and you sure as heck don't see them cheap and plastic. As far as the victorians (were they the ones with the rifle and pointed/ridged helmets?)...you could probably snip the rifle off or do other mods for them. I want to caution, I haven't measured them yet...if someone owns this game or cracks a copy of it open, let us all know their approximate size / scale. [/QUOTE]
