So who can get excited over Mexican Peasants. I happen to liketo add civilians into games. Pass of the North now offers tothose of us who like this sort of thing 21 different Mexican peasants. There are three packs of seven different types. All figures are excellent and come open handed; one packhas advancing, another standing, and the third walking (the latter have blankets draped over them). Each figure in each pack is a little different-some with big or small sombreros on head,some with sombreros hanging in back , some with a peaked cap. Almost all are useful for the 19th and early 20th century (the peaked cap figures are better for the more recent period). Eachpack comes with a weapons sprue including rifles, machetes, and farm tools (a pistol would have been nice). Added to the POTN, Magnificant Seven group you can now game out the movie of the same name, or pit these guys against the forces of Maximillian orCaranza, even Pershing. On the Barrett Size Scale I give them a 23M. Available from: Pass of the North 1060 Esplanda El Paso, Texas 79932 More Reviews
