I am looking to buy some Mogadishu building from the Square and wondered if any one had bought, have photos, a link to photos, advice, etc etc.

Thanks

Mad that they don't have a picture of their productsConfused. How are you meant to know what you are buying?

I bought some stuff from them at Colours last year. The stand was a bit disorganised but there are all sorts of bits in various scales. Well worth a rumage, and pretty cheap, I thought.

Skinnedpuppy.

Their 10mm stuff has 1/200 in brackets afterwards, so that puts it more in line with skytrex so not much use to us.

But they also seem to have some 10mm figure ranges (SCW, Vietnam). Annyone know how these compare to Pendraken or Minifigs?

Their 10mm figures/vehicles are those formerly available from Bren Gun which was the old Wild Geese ranges which became Pendraken, but before you get too excited they were 1/200.

Yep, they will be too small for Pendraken or bigger Confused

OK, thanks for that. A pity as they would fill some gaps in what's available for moderns.

Ooops sorry, never saw your question about the e-mail address.

This forum replaces the "AT" symbol with the word at to stop spammers from getting e-mail addresses.

I never really left my stand except to grab a quick coffe, sorry.

I've used *loads* of stuff from The Square that I've picked up at various Legionaries over the years...they're nicely cast resin pieces, great value for money & scale-wise are fine, perhaps a touch on the small side but nothing too noticeable really...

If you've got BKCII look at the pic on p5: the Spanish buildings from left - right:

Square - Time Cast - Square - Square - Time Cast

...and on pp32-3 look at the dug-in troops: they're safe behind some Square fallen tree trunks [& Pendraken barricades]

Pics of their assorted rubble & more modern buildings are here: http://nikharwood.pbworks.com/w/page/7825401/10...

Nigel [IIRC that's his name...] is a nice fella too - and invariably chucks some freebies in at shows [well, at least he has for me!]

Hope that helps Smile
