Fantastic. Although the pedant in me has to point out the kings and queens aren’t set up properly.Smile

But I still want a set

Ah so the BL90s are the kings and the 50s the queens. Nice.

I still want a set and I want one now!

Assuming the BL50 is the queen it's right, queen on the color. Neat set. I like it.

Ah, I see the right side of the board now, yeah, setup half right.

I'm afraid I'm recovering from the BeoVirus. Sad

Yes but in the first pic the white pieces were set up as if the 50 was the king.

Though that too, but they're less "horselike"…

Since you ask, here is the full story:

- Penta's would have been great as towers, but I was lazy to model them.
- Beolab 4 would have been great as pawns, but I was lazy to model them.
- Knights were tricky to find, even BL17 stands for a commonly accepted compromise!
- I wanted to see BL5 (see point 1).
- I'd like to see BL8000 too.

I also wanted to have an time wise consistent lineup (except the iconic BL5's)

But lets' say it's real, I suppose you'll be able to custom order the pieces you want, and of course in Bronze tone, Natural, Brass Tone, Black, Maple, Smoked oak and Walnut. (prices accordingly Big Smile)
