(...) Cool! If you own any, I'd suggest that you could add a few skeletons from the Pyrates line to add further zing to your forces. The 12 points of articulation would also offset any missing poseability in the Dragons figs. Nice battle scene in (...) (19 years ago, 15-Aug-05, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, FTX)
