The Lego version of "Bucket of Soldiers". I'd pull out some of the
soldiers, add same cavalry and cannon with limbers, add same chrome
breastplates and chrome helmets for cuirassiers, some bugles, flags and
flagpoles...are there Lego drums? And, of course, a blue soldier version of
the bucket, a red soldier version, and a black soldier version (Redbeard torso).
Oh, and don't pay attention to Tom, he just seems to have a compulsion to
flame people.
