Dixons have a wide range of figs.
Black Scorpian are nice.

There are plenty more.

These are metal figures and very nice they are too.

Anyway if you are looking for Wild West buildings you might want to check out the card models for "White Wash City".

Do not be put off by them being card, they are durable and using a base makes them very stable. best of all by the CD and you can print out and assemble as many as you want.

If you're looking for a western skirmish game, then I invite you to check out my game, Blackwater Gulch! It's a fast paced but laid back game, you can design your own gang from scratch or use the pre-made characters that come with our figures. You can download the rules for free on my website .. www.blackwatergulch.com

Our miniatures aren't available yet, but I expect to have everything for sale in September if all goes well. If you're looking for terrain, white wash city is great for papercraft buildings. If you're looking for wooden kits, I have links to some great manufacturers on my website.

I would give a thumbs up for Blackwater Gulch.

We downloaded a copy of the rules a liittle while ago and they are great fun - the upcoming minis look great as well.

yes blackwater is the system i was looking at.
i like the look of the minis and i think that the indians should also have options for bows.

Thanks I will include bows in the future. But for the Bloodwolf Tribe I wanted them to be more like people that stole, traded or scavenged their weapons. The game takes place around 1890, so I thought there would be more guns and less bows for that kind of time period. But, I'll add them in for future models

Blackwater Gulch is awesome - I eagerly await the new printing of the latest rulebook.

I can also recommend Legends of the Old West from Warhammer Historicals but you may to to hunt to find a copy at a reasonable price.

I made a blog just to handle questions like this. These two posts cover all of the Clint Eastwood models I've been able to find. The decent sculpts, at least.
