Really nice figures! But a bit too pricey for my pockets. May have to see what I can find at the local hobby shop.

great site and a wonderful collection of nasty cutthroats.

I've found that reaper minis have a slightly better price,but not nearly the amount of different pirate characters that the foundry has

reaper's are from $2.50 to $5.00 depending of figure

the foundry sells there packs of six for $18 that makes em $3 apiece +shipping

and then there are the cute little ships that hold the minis-$36

28's are a bit small for me, I prefer closer to 54's.

Have you seen these?

I love conte. have you seen thier longship?

[Matty Bottles]

Yeah, conte's a fine company, but a bit pricey. I like that scale, too. What I've found works well is to get yer captain and QM from conte, and then to save money order the rest of yer crew from barzso. Barzso molds are plastic but the quality of the figures is some of the best I've ever seen. That may not be saying much for plastic, but still....also, they have a pirate jolly boat set, a cannon crew set, and, if yer still not happy with yer level of knavery and naval combat, ye can order the F&I colonial militia for privateers and the Redcoat whaleboat crew for marines. The site is http://www.barzso.com

Barzso made a tallship, too, the Hispaniola for the Treasure Island playset. I can't find it for sail. It looks like a decent hull but lousy rigging. Heck, I can replace the rigging. I've even been thinking about building me own hull out of balsa. Anyone have any ship plans they'd care to share?

I keep tellin' you lads us pirate wenches put our "assets" t'good use. We distracts ye long enough t'run ye through.

I've got Maria Roseblade from the Reaper Mini's. If you ever buy from Iron Wind Metals, let me know, their local, and I can call and pick up orders, and mail cheaper to you. Their cool receptionist emailed us and told us that, since we're all local.

Those minitures rock! I'll have to see if the historical hobby place near us actually carries them! Wooo thanks!
