    What about puir Colquhoun? I think the MacGregors have stolen his kilt. BTW I'm related to both, no aspersions intended in either direction.

    (Can anyone guess which one represents my main Scottish line?)
    Well, there are two or three that look such with their powdered wigs and awkward poses, including "MacIntire", which I can tolerate. I do like the great kilt, but there's no tartan in it!

    MacIan Figurines

    Several years ago Gaelic Themes made a series of figures based on the MacIan prints. These were really very well done (but cost a lot more than t-shirts)-- I wonder if they are still in production?

    Thanks for posting that up. Not to long ago I was contemplating making up a batch for my Clan to offer at the old Clan tent at Highland Games and other such events. I of course have the Cameron print hanging proudly in my living room. I'll have to add that to the list along with one of your wonderful kilts. By the way how long is the line say if I ordered one some time this month ? I should get it in a couple years or so right .
    Yours Aye,
    Sean

    Greg the Graham one is the gent leaning up against a wall, I'd rather have the fishing one, however I've come to think that he is merely resting after vanquishing his foes.

    HAHA! That's the spirit!

    Don't get me wrong, I like to fish, but it's not nearly as cool as fighting off a soldier when wearing only a kilt, hose, and a sword (MacMillan)!

    Yep, that was Great Grampa MacMillan. (sept of clan) Accept he was probably having a scotch instead of fighting...

    BTW, I'm finding out what these look like by you guys talking about them, thanks.

    I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
    Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…

    Todd - it's not the French part, it's the "Court" part.
