Thanks,

My link it does not contrast so well to see if they are plastic or metal. The ones you have show it better than my catalogues on hand. I forgot about that site.

Maybe mine are plastic and I've forgotten over time. I could have sworn they were pewter for all of them that I have. Like I wrote earlier - mine have been in storage for the 13 years of deployments.

Never saw a Cap Imp or Hellbore with metal tracks. If you have a Cap Imp or Hellbore with metal tracks then it must be worth a fortune, maybe more than the original lead Warlord prototypes.

On the Epicollector site you linked, you can clearly see the models have plastic tracks.

Yeah, if I had the money on hand, I would probably buy them. They're well-made and a good size, for about $11.50 each? Sold.

If I had the money to spend right now, I would be all over those Spleen Rippas. They would make great looted wagons with boom guns. But, they give me the idea to go to my local Home Depot and check out some plumbing supplies to maybe make my own.

Whenever I look at that, I imagine him saying "Kill....me....."

"The 75mm gun is firing. The 37mm gun is firing, but is traversed round the wrong way. The Browning is jammed. I am saying "Driver, advance." and the driver, who can't hear me, is reversing.

That's not the worst painted miniature I've ever seen; however, either that description is a masterpiece of satire, or the seller is the saddest, most delusional person I've ever seen.

I'm betting the latter, it has 'sopr kewl racing stripes'. I find it amusing he's so proud of it when there's visible color bleed all over his work. It seems actually odd to me how much of it there is given how neat the stripes are.
