I'm always on the lookout to put in bids for 'bargains'. Just arrived is the first of 2 'wins' - some 42mm Irregular Russian and Turkish troops (assume the next lot will arrive tomorrow) that I got for, really, very little.
 |
| This lot are all down as Russians. |
 |
| While these are the Turks. |
 |
| To be honest, personally I've no idea what the one in the green jacket is - so I'll accept the Russian tag for now.. |
 |
| There are 2 'Russian' guns, but again I'm not fully convinced. |
 |
| There were quite a few bent rifles and fragile leg joints but only 2 broken figures as such. |
So, discounting the 2 broken pieces, a total of 30 infantry/artillerymen and 2 guns, generally acceptable in most areas and requiring very little to get them in action. Bought from Irregular as new unpainted casting this would cost £69 excluding postage. Total I paid for this lot? £15.50 including postage - just over 22% of the new unpainted cost.
The next lot were an even better deal...
