17 inch - that´s a big doll! It does look a bit like Fess. I wonder what the price is.

Ah - right! I need stronger glasses...
Thanks, Nef!

$150 for a doll? No thanks.

I think it's just the "doll" stigma. Call it a $150.00 molded plastic sculpture of Fess Parker and then see how that sounds. Limited editions, by nature, cost bucks. Otherwise, they would not be worth the trouble and expense making.

I wish they would make some decent historical miniature kits 120mm scale of Alamo figures there is plenty about on just about every other period in history, your spoilt for choice if you like paining WW" germans!

True, Alex. About the only figures you can get that depict the
Alamo's "Holy Trinity" come with alcohol in them. (Not that
that's a bad thing.)

I have the three 120mm depicting the trinity from JW film which I will eventually get around to painting.

Where did you order them? Of course, you will post photos of them, upon completion.

Unfortunately the firm that made them closed down they also did a full set of figures from the film Zulu which would have appealed to Bromhead.
