Right then, with the stuff that arrived last week, we can knock a few things off the old Top 10.  Here's the shiny new list:

1.  Falklands War range
2.  Fantasy Bears
3.  French Revolutionary range
4.  Korean War range
5.  Aztecs range
6.  Indian Mutiny range
7.  Yom Kippur range
8.  WW2 Italian artillery
9.  Colonial Fuzzy on camel
10. WW2 Personalities

The top 7 are all full ranges, so it's gonna take some time to make a dent in those.  I might have to look at doing separate lists for ranges/individual items.
www.pendraken.co.uk - Now home to over 10,000 products, including nearly 5000 items for 10mm wargaming, plus MDF bases, Battlescale buildings, I-94 decals, Litko Gaming Aids, Militia Miniatures, Raiden Miniatures 1/285th aircraft, Red Vectors MDF products, Vallejo paints, Tiny Tin Troops flags and much, much more!

Fantasy bears a full range - al we want is Brown, Grizley, Polar - not a full set, but BEARS.

Being a completely selfish git :d and not even remotely interested in No2 to No10 >:(, I'm gonna throw my hat in the ring (again and hope it doesn't get noticed :-[) to keep banging on about the No1 Slot. ;)

1.  Because its primarily an infantry based list and probably the smallest of the ranges in the top 10 so will take less endeavour all round ;)

2.  Because no-one else makes it in 10mm and Pendraken will do there usual sterling job I am sure

3.  Because it will diversify and expand upon Pendrakens magnificence in 10mm taking the collection to new and exciting places

4.  Because I am a selfish git who has no interest in 2-10 ;D

Please, please, please, pretty please with a cherry on top!

So I may yet live to command an army of Aztecs in 10mm. There's hope for the world yet!
(I presume there'll be Tlaxcalans and other Mesoamericans to use against them with the Spaniards!)

Hmmm, no middle eastern  :(

Just a few generic figures plus the odd specialist would cover most of the period 11th - 18th centuries. Persians, North Indians, Egyptian, Tartars and more...

Would cover more armies with less figures than any other range

Thanks for posting that, Leon.

It would be good to have a separate list for small sets and fullranges; Id even vote for a limited number of votes  so folks would focus on what the really really want.

For specific WWI personalities for the, I want a Vatutin (see him early in this fillm),  The distinctive body form should make him recognizable in 10mm.

pity he's a Bavarian, but at least he looks the part, especially without a hat.

Would any of the Viet Nam Aussies be any good for Falklands?
I have neither the time nor the crayons to explain why you are wrong.

Maybe, but I could guarantee that VN riverine monitors would go well with the Australians though!  :d
Unlike some people, I feel under no obligation to pretend that only one war-gaming scale is true, and that any others 6mm/10mm/15mm/25mm are mistaken; or that I know better than people themselves what is right for them to use. The point is precisely for all war-gamers to decide for themselves.

I guess the question is whether the Aussies could, in effect, be used as dollies...hmm...

Nosher

I agree that Chinese are needed, but Aztecs will be a big job to paint. Be patient and wait for Chinese in 2012.
