If you liked Adobeville, you'll love this. For those who are not familiar with the original set, it is modular system comprising floors, support girders, ceilings and interchangeable wall blocks. These go together to make room modules. In addition, their are tiled roofs, a flat roof with parapet, a well and so much more. The ideal start for building everything from a desert fort to a Mediterranean walled farm. Glenn Williams listened to his customers and didn't stop there. Adobeville II takes this concept so much further. By adding the models in this set to the basic set, it is possible to create a simple Mosque or Spanish Mission, amongst other possibilities. You get a Minaret, a Mission Bell tower, two styles of balcony (one with a porch that converts to a cloister), gateways, a firing step and a lean to. Also included are gate inserts and blank walls for the basic modules, should you wish to include storerooms or stables. As if all this were not enough, a selection of "cut and paste" doors and windows (Turkish, modern and futuristic) are included to further adapt the basic set. If you're looking for a versatile 28mm system get Adobeville, then get this (you could even include the Lincoln NM, Watchtower). Highly recommended.

Another stunning departure from the typical Wild West clapboard. In many ways, these two Churches are even more useful than the Businesses from this collection. The Catholic and Protestant churches depicted here are authentic copies of the ones in Lincoln, NM, researched on the spot. If you want something that is full of period flavour, without being "Clapboard Gothic", you have the genuine article. The great plus is the simplicity of design, and construction. These are classic mission churches that would not be out of place anywhere from the American South-west to Central Africa. The Catholic church is even more versatile than the Protestant one in this respect. The small size and simplicity of these models also makes them usable with older 25mm miniatures and maybe some 20mm. The timeless quality of these buildings means, although they are intended for the 1880's, they could be used for any period from 1810 to the near future.
Construction is very simple and quick with no difficulties. Like all the buildings in this collection, a base with an optional interior floor and ruined corners is included. I would not hesitate in recommending these lovely little models.

There are other Wild West building kits available, so why buy the Lincoln, New Mexico collection? To coin a popular phrase, "You're not in Kansas now". The Lincoln collection is the authentic South-west from the hand of a man who knows the neighbourhood. It is see, by comparing these lovely little models to period and modern photos, that this is a real town referenced on the spot. Glenn Williams would describe this range as a labour of love and a homecoming, something that shows in the models. The predominantly adobe buildings are a wonderfully refreshing departure from the "Hollywood" depictions of Abilene, Kansas.
Every building comes with an individual base and interior floor. The option is given to attach the building, permanently, to the base or make it slip over a set of ruined corners. The latter option, not as difficult as it sounds, is probably the better. Construction is so simple an experienced model maker could put one together in half an hour. The two buildings in this set are pretty unique for this genre. The General Dealer has the familiar clapboard frontage on a classic adobe building. The Cantina is even more unusual. This is not your typical Western Saloon, it is single storey adobe building with a roof that pitches in four directions. This classic Mexican building has the look of a C19th Diner.
Highly recommended and at $2:50 for two models, Glenn is almost giving these away.

As with all of Finger and Toes products this is a wonderful kit. I find them easy to assemble, with clear directions. Might be nice to see some optional accesories such as signs, which can be pasted on to customize them

Finger and Toe delivers yet ANOTHER great set!
As with ALL F&T models, you get a great modular set of terrain that offers realistic textures on an easy-to-build model that looks fantastic when it is built.
Whether you are wanting a simple set of wall sections to slow down the enemy, of a COMPLETE wall that emcompasses an entire village, this set has it all.
Because it is modular, you can print and build as mauch or as little as you want, and can always add more later.
Fantastic set!

This set is nothing short of amazing!
It gives your paper figures a real video game/ movie feel to it. The textures are gripping and the fields around the figures can be trimmed or not, depending on personal preference.
I am not a big fan of "fields" around the figures, but these allow action poses and things like whips to be used without making them too delicate or compromising the figure.
These sets are a fantastic deal for the money. My favorite feature (besides the figures themselves) is the weapon and equipment cards that are included. You can customize the cards to be used with ANY RPG, or tabletop game.
5 Stars isn't near enough!

This is another addition to Bel's Kitty that I really enjoy using to do modifications. Not only can you build it the way the instructions indicate, I also borrow one of the guns and add it to Cargo Bay from the Mule and Mortar addition to create an APC which can fit multiple squads inside it.

This is a must have addition to the Bel's Kitty Tank.
The Cargo Bay is perfect as an APC for carrying troops behind the Tanks.
As I have stated with Bel's Kitty, I do not build treads. Instead, I use 4 to 6 Finger Toe air cav scout stands to create a hover vehicle and fit them where the treads would be. I also add a gun from the Big Guns addition to the front of the APC. I think you could substitute just about any other Finger Toe gun to the front that would fit and that could work for the APC too. I'm very pleased with this set mostly because it allows me to so easily modify the vehicle to fit the needs of my game.
Yet another great product from Finger toe.

I love this thing. Yes it has treads, but if you don't build them and substitute 4 to 6 stands from the Finger and Toe Air Cav units, you can have a hover tank ala Hammer's Slammers. This is perfect for the big Heavy Hero in your SciFi games. Did I say I love this thing?

This is another great modular set from Finger and Toe, this time focused on building interiors. The pieces are easy to cut and assemble, so it doesn't take long to have a collection of walls, pillars, doors and modules to set up a board for a sci-fi crawl or something else.

At $0.50 this is simply unbelievable. At the very least you get a watchtower that will have a lot of use for sci-fi and post-apocalyptic gaming. If you like kitbashing you can build a whole playground with the provided girders, floors and walls. The pieces can be mixed with the other Slagtown sets for added variety.

This set has lots of modularity and kitbashing possibilities, which is what I like the most with Finger and Toe sets. With a graphics program it's even possible to scale the pieces down and mix them with Slagtown etc.

Very nice add on to the Temple and Necropolis sets, quick and easy. Not a lot of options which would make the set more versitile, but non the less well designed and engineered, no problems with assembly and instruction which is way more than you can say for other brands.
