Has anyone successfully ordered from oakridge? I placed an order 6 weeks ago (by phone) and have heard nothing. I call weekly. Twice it was "items on back order" two other times it was "we are shipping it in a few days" but alas nothing has arrived.

I have really been unimpressed with their service / responsiveness. Their web ecommerce service left a lot to be desired as well, which is why I phoned the order in. My one and only experience leads me to believe the are really not ready for Internet commerce. I doubt I will be ordering from them again.

Hey, Laz, I get some of my figures from www.hobbybunker.com

It's mainly military figures, but they post pictures of everything they sell. 54mm is about the right size for O.

Model Power makes a set of standing people that's inexpensive. But you have to paint them.
