Review by John Boehm
Castaway Arts has also brought an extensive line of Colonial Gaming Figures from “Down Under” Ashanti natives and Egyptians were available for review. They also make a line of British figures. There are 40 listings 14 British, 13, Ahanti native and 12 Egyptians. The figures measure 25M Barret Measure, slender and well proportioned as we have noted before in Australian figures. Well detailed and animated these figures are a great bargain at $.90 US per foot figure and rider, I have no price for horses as they do not make a hosr mounted figure for this line as yet. Gerry Webb of Castaway who I met at Historicon, assures me that a large expansion of the line is forthcoming. These are gorgeous figures and I can’t wait to start fielding these troops. See other review for complete address.
