Here's a neat NIB batch of figs I just picked up and opened!

They're Folio Works "High Command" figs from the early 90's (before 2nd edition)

I've done a blog posting about them at Chicago Skirmish Wargames with a bit of history, comparison pics to IG, and a couple of other figures from the same line. Enjoy.

tThanks folks. Glad you found it interesting.

The post was updated this evening as we recieved information that most of these figs are still being produced. I've emailed the company that says they are still making them, but hasn't any pics on their site. I'll post whatever I find out.

I have some of those! Terrible knock-offs that they are.
