review by Richard Bryant
Merrimack Miniatures, famous for their beautiful ship models have expanded into stockades, buildings and forts using some of the same techniques that gives such beautiful detail to their ships. Sent for review is the Tombstone's OK Corral and its surrounding buildings. These have great interior detail and separate doors that can be mounted to open and close. There are 4 buildings and 10 figures in the set - the figures are well detailed as well. I'm not sure who makes the figures but they will fit nicely with Foundry Old west figures. Of course, the buildings can be used for any old west or ACW scenario as well. $75 from J & T Miniatures and well worth the price. Also available are various forts and a Russian FarmStead. J & T also sells Connoisseur, Houston's Civil War Artillery and Bicorne Miniatures Colonial Range at very reasonable prices. www.jandtminiatures.com or 31216 County Road 112 Pequot lakes, MN 56472 gregory@tds.net More Reviewing Stand
