Peter Pig and Houston Ships

Marching to the Front

by Marc Shefelton

Have you ever been in one of the following situations?

    "What is this?"
    "It's hard to tell with all the flash."
    "It's an infantryman, there's his cartridge box."
    "No, that has to be a cavalrymen, that's the horse's head."
    "You're both wrong, it's a limber, that thing you two pointed is the top of the wheels."

And the other situation is…

    "Finally, it took us ten minutes, but we finally got that miniature to stand up."

    "Oh no! It fell again."
    "Where is it?"
    "I don't see it."
    "Me neither."
    CRUNCH…"I think I found it."

If you have ever been in one or both of these situations, you need Peter Pig. Wait a second. Okay, with a small amount of effort, all 5 miniatures I received from Peter Pig are now standing on their own bases. It also has some of the finest detail I have ever seen in 15mm scale. There is a small amount of flash on the bottom of the bases, but other than that they are flash free. They come in packs of 4 horsemen or 8 infantrymen. Packs are 1.70 British Pounds.
