20mm Old West - Where I got my toys

I got asked where my 20mm Old West Stuff came from, so here's what I can remember (vendors/ranges in caps)

 The stagecoach is from IMEX
 Wagons/buckboards are IMEX too.  They have a few really useful pack of civilians and terrain (cacti, ladders camps etc)
 This is six of the seven RAVENTHORPE poses, the missing one is a kneeling rifleman I wasn't keen on
 QUALITYCAST, sadly no longer in business
They also had some useful figs in their WW2 ranges, like this golfer with a revolver and hunter with shotgun
 These are old DARK FUTURE by GW.  Blind Jorge and Maisy
 These are either AIRFIX or the reissued REVELL, can't recall which.  Soft plastics as you can see on the damaged gun on the LHS
 These are a mix of QUALITYCAST, DAPOL, IMEX, STRELETS and MUSKET MINIATURES
 Now for the wacky, these are supposed to be Boers by STRELETS, I'm not sure if anyone in Strelets has ever seen a pic of a Boer before
 However, they do make excellent cowboys, especially the Dynamiteros
 And more, they are firmer plastics so take paint better than the Airfix/Revell figs
 Injuns, these are IMEX I think
 Buildings are mix of MUSKET MINIATURES (some bought pre-painted from GAJO) and old KIBRI kits, from Ebay
 I did find recently that the old KIBRI kits have been rereleased by BCH from the US
Wild West Gunfighters
I don't have these yet, they are in the mail.  These are the new gunfighters from NEWLINE DESIGNS.  I'm looking forwards to getting these painted.
