Ok, FSN, you've worn us down.  Here you go

I have neither the time nor the crayons to explain why you are wrong.

If that's a Transformer that will change into a proper Centurion tank, I'll take it!

They've got a small cloth saddle on them.

I thought there was a pic of them somewhere, posted by Phil, but I can't find it now.  I'll double check when I get to work tomorrow.

I'm pretty sure I reamed everything off and just put a cloth 'saddle' on them Meirion.
Pretty sure I did pop a piccy up somewhere......I'll have a look too.

Think that's the link....I'll check if that works now.
Seems to.

I've got naked mammals on the brain at the moment, looks like that amount of accoutrement may be beyond my ability and resources to remove!  :-\

I've going to convert this chappie very soon anyway. ;)
If Leon's happy for me to do it, I'll ask him to send me a couple of these, and make up a completely plain one at the same time as I'm doing the other.
Wouldn't take long.
Cheers - Phil

Thanks Phill, if Leon says yes, I'll certainly buy a pack of those! :D

Hmm, if you did a flat-backed version it could do for a llama/alpaca: a first tentative step on the way to the occasionally requested Aztec range... ;)

I'll wait for 'the man'. ;)

Classic misread of your last post Meirion..... :-[ :-[ :-[
I wondered what on earth you were on about........as I read it as a flat PACKED camel the first time. ;D ;D ;D
(Maybe you can get those from Ikea.)

Cheers - Phil

Speaking of Aztecs, does anyone remember the "Deadliest Warrior" series? It took two warriors from the past and pitted them against each other. I remember Pirate vs Knight, William Wallace vs Chaka Zulu and was miffed when the Viking lost to someone or another.

The ferocious Jaguar Warrior had his backside handed to him by an African warrior, whose war cry I seem to remember was "yum yum". Scary.

Also, whilst I'm meandering down this lane, does anyone remeber a game show featuring the Army? Every week a pair of bttns would go up against each other is fine military skills. I always liked the 2" mortar. Couldn't do it now of course. Not enough bttns left for a series!

I only saw one or two episodes of Deadliest Warrior, and I had no desire to see more.

I do remember that, but I can't remember what it was called. I seem to recall being impressed there was some sort of mechanism for suppressive fire. Can't remember the details, but it meant that they couldn't ignore fire directed at the wall they were hiding behind.

By the way, FSN, have you checked your private messages?

Wasn't it a samurai? Closest to a 50-50 match out of all of them though IIRC.

The one I only saw about 5 minutes of it, but remember vividly was Spetsnak vs Green Beret. The experts looked like they would happily have sorted it out there and then given half a chance...

... and the good thing is that EVERYONE will know how long it is before they can order Centurions.
