Love that stuff. I still have an un-opened Aurora Blue Knight of Milan model from the 60s. It's the only one I didn't open up, build, then blow up with firecrackers when I was a kid.

I have several of the Marx knights, vikings and cowboys. I love the inane amount of accessorires that you get with them.

DrGoat said...

Yeah! They are very cool. The Marx Silver Knight Sir Stuart is great. You're right. Lots of accessories.

And then gunpowder had to ruin it all!

Hey no gunpowder no cowboys. Unless you want a weird alternate history of knighted cowpokes. Sir William the Kid.

Now you're talking my language ;) Armour is cool, as The Doctor (probably) will say...

these are most excellent; are they from a book? A quick search found a lot of Graham Turner stuff at Osprey Publishing. Thanks!

Reminds me of that ditty --

"In days of old,
When knights were bold,
Oh but those tin pants
Were cold."

A classic.

I know a similar one about condoms not being invented and what they did so babies were prevented. You are my people, Debra.
