Cannot resist a bargain : Crescent and Cross

Been working in Birmingham for a couple of days and popped into Allen's bookshop. I always pop in  as they often sell off odd bits of stock. I am a sucker for a bargain and annoyingly they were selling off some Saga Muslim forces. It worked out at £25 for the five packets shown which retail at £62. As I have been working on my Moors I just couldn't say no πŸ˜€
A nice collection of Saracen warriors, levy, moorish black guard fanatic cavalry and naffatun a nice addition to my forces πŸ˜€

  1. I cannot pass up a bargain either! These figures will make great additions to your Reconquista project.

  4. Always most satisfying when one bags a bargain, wether one needs them/it or not :~)

    1. I really like the Gb figures although not everybody's favourite. So at less than half price no wasn't really an option....πŸ˜€

  6. So lovely to hear they are still going! Used to work in the city center, before moving to France, and would usually be in Ian Allen's at lunchtime spending money I didn't have on things I didn't need!

  7. About the right price for Gripping Beast figures in my book, but, a bargain is a bargain!
