Completely agree. Once white metal spears, flagstaffs, swords, etc, get bent beyond a certain limit it's almost impossible to get them back into the true shape plus the photo-etched sword blades on St Petersburg, or First Legion, figures are much more in scale - and therefore better looking. I use brass rod to replace spears and flagstaffs, and I do have some photo-etched steel sword blades, but I'm limited to only one shape. So I'd also be extremely interested if anyone comes up with a supplier for these items.I wasn't very clear with my question. I apologize. I've purchased several St. Petersburg 54mm figures and they come with stainless steel bayonets or swords. Much better looking than white metal versions that most commercial kits have. I was just asking if anyone knew of a figure accessory supplier who carried them.
