Blimey Monkeynut, you've added about 12 years work to Leon's list!

Well done!



If we're adding British softskins, I'll reconfirm my request for a an Airborne Morris for towing 17pdrs. *



*Exception to my "I've finished NW Europe"claim.

Not quite the classic Don R but not too bad as a stand-in from the Misc section of the WW1 range

WW1 Despatch rider with leather coat and flying goggles (5)

Get in line Lieutenant!  :P
I'm still waiting for Byzantines, chariot armies, super heroes, something to drag my Airborne 17pdrs and Bernadotte's Swedes.

Never apologise. Especially for good suggestions.

When I started making soldiers for Pendraken in 2011.......I can remember Leon telling me about the number of 'requests' and 'things that needed making.'

I think he said he had 10 sheets of A4 covered in small typeface with all the 'wants', at that time.

I dread to think how long the list is now. ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D......And that's with a lot of the original requests now done.

Cheers - Phil  :)

When I first saw the title of this thread I thought " that sounds like a dodgy adult movie".  Did anyone else think this, or has my mind descended to sewer level again? :d

More importantly I did not think that the Don in the title referred to his holiness Donald Featherstone. That would have been Heresy!
