Dixon has released a line of 25mm Pirates with some 39 castings in it (not counting the variations that can be made by Head Variants on SOME of the figures.). I especially i liked the treasure burying party and the Naval gun with Pirate gunners. The figures measure 23M on the Barret Scale and will fit well with the slightly larger Foundry figures. These figures are well proportioned and well animated and will be a welcome addition to anyone's collection of Pirates. Among the characters are a swivel gun and crew and some 7 of the more famous (infamous?) Pirate personalities. Available from Wargames, Inc.
