It probably wouldn't be too bad, and I may do that with some of my extra King
Leos if I get more.  Currently, though, all six are being used for another
purpose:  Servants!  I made four into trumpeteers, using classic smilies and
black peasant cowls, and then I gave each a gold bugle.  The other two are just
plain servants/pages, with classic smilies and mail hairpieces.  They look
really cool IMO ('specially the Trumpeteers).


I do think I have found a decent use for the new wall/tower pieces as either
renforcements in a wall or as a decorative element to the wall of a building
so I might be able to use the wall piece they threw into the box as well.

I was thinking of using them as turrets along a straight section of wall.
These typically weren't very large, and regular 3x3 quarter octagon bricks
would still give it a nice overhang.

Even if I can use him I would wait for a decent sale but if I can use him as a
knight it might make it worth it.

Look at some classic Crusaders.  The soldiers often had an insignia on their
tabbards, rather than printed armor.
