They were a short lived range of budget wargames figures that appeared around 1975 and were gone about four years later. The range was quite comprehensive and was still expanding when they went out of production.<br /><br />They were the first metal figures that my brothers and I bought in any numbers and we had loads of them. Then time went by and we moved on to Hinchliffe and Minifigs and until about 2010 the Ros figure collection lay dormant. About that time I dug them out and decided it would be fun to try to collect the whole range and refurbish those that I already have.<br /><br />If interested you can find out more on my Ros Figure blog:<br /><br />https://ros25mmfigures.blogspot.com/<br /><br />Bob The Old Painterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12799920263660656268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7474733860161790452.post-47435869744611132162020-04-21T01:48:45.652-07:002020-04-21T01:48:45.652-07:00Being of a certain age I thought I knew virtually ...Being of a certain age I thought I knew virtually all the figure manufacturers. But Ros? in 25mm Obviously there were Heroics and Ros and their lovely 5mm figures but this company is a new /old one for me.Saying that you have done a lovely paint job on them, well done.Independentwargamesgrouphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07019172667119107650noreply@blogger.com
