Perry Miniatures - Town People and Villagers


I've prepped a couple of packs of civilians for games of Daishо̄/Ronin/Test of Honour - both from the Perry Miniatures samurai range.

First up the Town People pack - 7 minis in total (the Perry website is a little misleading here - the child it refers to is a single piece casting holding the hand of, presumably, his mother).  Here's an old man, a traveller with a staff and hat, and a chap running (the implement? he is holding needed to be glued into place):


The rest of the pack is made up of a child with mother, a nicely dressed woman, a chap with a shouldered sword and a porter:


I also got the Villager pack.  This actually includes 8 minis.  First up a particularly obstinate child, a pointing woman (presumably trying to tell the kid to do something!), a Komusо̄ and a woman taking a break:


And finishing off the civilians - a worker carrying a basket, a worker leaning on a shovel, a worker swinging a pick and a sitting chap taking it easy:


The minis are all the high quality we all know and expect from the Perrys - average amounts of flash but nothing major to clean up. The porter from the Town People pack did need some gentle bending of the basket on the pole which was a little nerve wracking but I managed it!

These minis will really bring games to life - potentially inspiring some special scenarios (that Komusо̄ in particular seems to be begging for some rules!).
