And when I told the missus what I've ordered she said "Why didn't you order more?" so I threw in one box of Accurate's English Men At Arms too. 
Ah, yes the dentist went fine! No holes and I managed to stay awake.

Just recieved my first order from Michigan Toy Soldier today. A little slow on the delivery(blames the post) but I have already ordered again.(22 WW2 vehicles, Pegasus and Italiari.) It consisted of : Strelets: Union General Staff #2
Imex (Billy 5): Union and confederate Artillery and Cavalry
Imex : AWI American Artillery
and some Woodland Scenic foliage.
I also had an order from Woodrows War Store in Canada arrive last week. It comprised the following: Ceasar : Dwarves
Italiari : AWI American Infantry
Pegasaus : KV-1 and Farm Animals
Zvezda : French Foot Soldiers 100 Years War
Emhar : Zouaves
These orders were my first ever from Strelets,Ceasar, Pegasus, and Emhar. I worked on the Strelets set today. Wow! Spent almost an hour just to get the riders on their horses and to stand up!!! It looked like one of their better sets too
Ceasars Dwarves are pretty good. The Kids got a laugh out of them too. I have not orderd from Italieri for a long time but their AWI American set is massive
PSR said 25/26mm, but I would say mabey 30 plus! I can"t even use them on the same bases with my Imex stuff.
I had a much more plesant time with Pegasus KV-1. It went together fast and I built both tanks in about an hour! So I orderd 18 more! Also worked on the Emhar Zouaves yesterday. The detail is good and I like being able to alter them with the possible plastic. So thats about it for now. Should keep me busy till work starts up again in March!

Well, if they were real horses you could make sausage. Early Strelets horse poses are really impossible not to laugh at. Also bought that set.

... some times ago, I bought on e-bay an old "ATLANTIC Wagon Train"... for 20€ !!! 
The wagon is quite not too bad (better than the AIRFIX one) with much accessories, but the 2 figures (it seems to be ACW figs...) are awful !
lucky guy!
don't buy it yet... money, money....
(even I prefer having the resin set!)

Just as you wished, Peter - here's my purchase list from the recent Figurenbörse in Herne:
- HäT French Line Infantry (late)
- HäT French Light Infantry (late)
- HäT French Line Grenadiers 1806-1812
- Strelets Napoleons' general staff (1)
One box each. Plus a sheet of Rofur flags for Prussian foot guards.
Plus a set of casualties of French line infantry (ART-miniatures, http://www.schmaeling.de/images/0284.jpg).
Additionally, I took some firing French Hussars and a handful of HäT Russian militiamen out of the grabbing box. I have certain plans with these figures...
Btw - I also found a Strelets bonus figure in the grabbing box and put in in the envelope addressed to Peter.
On the same day, I won an auction on Ebay - one set of HäT Russian Cossacks for the bargain price of just 2,40€!
That's a pretty good result for just one day.
