No longer in lugnet.build.minifigs, David Low replies to himself:
Anyone know where else I might find him (or any other redbearded fellow who
might realistically play Odysseus)?


You might try 6706, hard to see on the picture but I'm pretty sure one of
the soldiers has that head:

I noticed that one while scrutinising Brickshelf. The other characters would
be one offs for me and there are a few cute parts (brown saddle, bush base,
flag, bugle, hats). Let us know if someone spots it on special.

(Possible) special spotted by yours truly. Mosied on down to Target today,
vaguely remembering that a couple of these were floating around a few months
ago. They were still there, except that one of them had been horsectomised
by some thieving brat. But this suited me fine, since the horse was exactly
the one piece I didn't want. So I was expecting maybe a few dollars of the
RRP of $12-15. A combination of some polite inquiries and a disgruntled
checkout chap resulted in a 30% discount, which I thought was alright.
Except that the price turned out to be $7 (-30% = $4.90 = happy boy). They
were closing, and I didn't have time to see if this was a more general
discount or just on this set, but it might be worth checking out. And he
said unto them "Go forth and save $$$".

On a totally different topic, maybe December's STUDSfest can be an
opportunity for showing off some of our favourite minifigs. Just an idea...

The set's pretty thin on the ground up here, and frankly it's because (...) (23 years ago, 27-Nov-00, to lugnet.build.minifigs, lugnet.loc.au)
