Theirs are excellent, but too steep for me, running over $25 for most figures. Nice pics on their website: https://www.kingsx.com/ecat/servlet/EcatPage?comp_id=24<br /><br />I've long wanted to visit the Little Big Horn too. What I'd really like is to trace Custer's route on horseback, but with all the private land that now seems impossible.Evan Lewishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07620731784654779358noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4705940625481143611.post-20121753439435852152010-03-15T07:41:02.793-07:002010-03-15T07:41:02.793-07:00This is great.

I've been by it without stopping, planned to go for the reenactment the last two summers, but have never actually been. This year will change!Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10070278104646895235noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4705940625481143611.post-89154374652364678932010-03-15T07:05:36.065-07:002010-03-15T07:05:36.065-07:00Did you get to the toy soldier store near the Meng...Did you get to the toy soldier store near the Menger Hotel?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02350478005243505108noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4705940625481143611.post-47356179278427366882010-03-15T06:35:31.315-07:002010-03-15T06:35:31.315-07:00Meeting direct descendents, reenactments, and invi...Meeting direct descendents, reenactments, and invitation to family reunions. <br /><br />That's a wonderful Christmas gift.David Cranmerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04749857752139212888noreply@blogger.com
