I was adicted to collecting those 1/72 scale soldiers as a kid. Napoleonic were my favourites but I used to get everything from Romans up to ww2. Mainly airfix and esci ones. Looking at that plastic soldier sites reviews shows some sets I would have killed for as a kid. Particularly the samurai and mardhi revolt sets. There's one there with general Gordon and troops.
So I am now down about £120 as I found some sets of these and also a huge box set of Romans/Greeks/Persians. My mrs will kill me when they turn up!
I am going to see if I can get my son and neiphep off the xbox to help me paint them
