For anyone who misses small green soldiers as a small kid.

Now play with the upgraded version made of lead and other dangerous materials.

Be sure to chek out other stuff.

I thought lead miniatures were made of pewter these days as lead is a dangerous substance. I'm not even sure lead figures are allowed anymore in the US...but I could be wrong. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif

No lead involved, eh? Unless in the paint, as this line comes from HongKong.



All FRONTLINE FIGURES are 54mm high or 1/32rd scale. This is the standard scale for toy soldiers

From the early years of plastic kit construction that most enthusiast collectors experience, modification of standard boxed bits into one off individual models and scratch built items, the first tentative steps were taken into producing single specialist figures for entry into Society shows and the like.

There are a lot of other scales now, 120mm Resin models are quite popular, and Andrea of Spain makes 70mm and 90mm, there larger scales have a lot more detail.

Yes you can use lead. Just get the molds and pour your own. You can get the lead from black powder gun stores and direct mail from Dixie Gun Works. If all else fails, just bust up some old car batteries (watch out for the acid) ****WARNING**** adult supervision required, call your mommie first. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/cool.gif
