Wargames Foundry 20mm
Arab-Israeli Wars


I've got four Israeli and two Arab troops - they're new, so I've no price or catalog data yet - that fit right into the upper crust of 20mm figures. They all run about 21M Barrett, and are all quite well done. Equipment is all precisely cast, but not over-emphasized. Anatomy is good (I was a bit suspect of the proportions of one walking Israeli, but his shoulder-butt/butt-foot ratio is the same as mine, so either he's OK or I'm not!) uniforms are welldetailed, and, most important, all set well on the figures. Facial expressions are good for the scale (they all look mean) and the poses are convincing - animated, but not overdone. I'd rank these right with my MLR and (the better of my) SHQ figures. Available from your game shop or, if unavailable there, directly from Pendragon Miniatures Highly recommended!- BILL RUTHERFORD

* The Courier uses the Tobey Barrett Measurement [BM] System to simplify comparison of figure sizes. The number is the height in millimeters from the bottom of the figure's foot (top of base) to its eyes. The letter refers to the "heft" of the figure: L=light, M=medium, and H=heavy. Thus, Hs will fit in with other Hs and some Ms, but not Ls.
