Just wanted to post here that I finally have the Series 8 figures up on Animobil, with lots of photos of each including the exploded views.

Great! Thanks for the update and fantastic pictures, as usual. :)

Thanks a million Tiermann, I had no idea until I saw your pic that the Crusader's shield's handle can be turned around. Never seen that before, and it makes me very happy!

Also, anyone know why the green king's hands are brown but his face is pink? Have they been listening to cachalote?

I think it was an attempt at giving the look of leather gloves underneath his chainmail.

Seems like they should have gone with black. That brown is more likely to be read as skin color IMO.

Also I looked it up and a red hat and trim on a Confederate means that he is in the artillery.

I agree. That would have been better. :-\ Perhaps they had a surplus of those arms.
