Intended as a resource to help identify vintage wargames figures before posting them more publicly on the Hinton Hunter, Old Metal Detector, or Lone S Ranger blogs

Very small 20mm ECW Dragoon - not Higgins or Niblett
this one has got me thinking, legs of figure remind me of the Airfix Confederate running figure, body, head/hat looks like a Les Higgins ECW musketeer, musket looks crude, which makes me wonder if this is a home cast conversion cheers old john
Tend to agree with John (but when did I ever diagree with him?). The "skipping" pose was also used for some Airfix WW1 figures and for the "running (rifle seperate)" Jacklex figures which may have been covereted from them originally. Harry
I am intending to use this site to post pictures for identification help before blogging them publicly on the Hinton Hunter, Old Metal Detector or Lone S Ranger sites. You can use the comments feature to respond and see any ideas others have left. If you want to post pictures here for others to help with, let me know and I can arrange the right to post. I won't be publicising the site in general, it's really to enable us to do this on line rather than by e-mail and hopefully with higher definition pictures. The site is invitation only but I am happy to invite anyone you think may be interested to join.
