The good thing about Fright Knights are that they can easily be drafted into
other armies since their torsos are non-faction specific. I only have so
many because the minifig pack was on sale when I was first starting to build
up my armies.

They *can* go for a lot, but quite often I can get them at a reasonable
price. The truth of the matter is even though people like them and they are
in demand, there are still a lot floating about.

I was refering to the specific gray-forestman torso generally identified as
a "peasant", rather than draftees from other lines.

Now this one is odd. People like 'em, and they weren't out that long so
they are in short supply. But I haven't had that hard of time getting them
for a reasonable price - indeed, I have so many because deals were
plentiful. I suspect that while they have a devoted following, many people
just don't bother with them.

My blue torso sacled figs end up with the Black Falcons, and the red torso
scaled figs go with the Crusaders. My least favorite torso is the old solid
breastplate fig, so that always gets armor over it and I determine it's
faction more by the Horse Barding.

Gosh, and here I thought Frank Filz was the champion Islander collector.
Skellies, mummies, and other various undead (Darth Maul works as an Orc, or
as a wraith with the black side turned around) should be mentioned.
