If you saw my post in the General Glossy section, this is an addendum to that call for help. Long story short, I'm stuck in a hotel room 3.5 hours from home and brought a bunch of soldiers with me to sort, ID and box up in preparation for the MFCA show in Philly. I have a ton of stuff from all...

I can only imagine what the housekeeping staff would think if I didn't have the Do Not Disturb sign in the door.

I also discovered that the Egyptians have what looks like a GB scratched into the recessed bases. The recess has made me change my opinion of those 3 figures being Imperial.

There's a mark on the base of the Marines, but, it's hard to make out. These are the best 2 of the bunch.

Just at Christmas to that set name and you nailed it. Thank you. https://michtoy-from-the-front.blogspot.com/2018/12/fridays-with-farley-aka-another-dose-of.html

Part II .... I was having a hard time with the natives carrying the bloke on the chair. The whole set was in a Fusilier box. But, as I have learned, what's on the box doesn't necessarily represent what's in the box. Interpreting Dave's handwriting presented its own challenges as well at...

So, work sends me out of town and I'm holed up in a hotel 100 miles from home. What do I do with all this free time? Try to put a good dent in identifying what's left of the unidentified soldiers in this collection. Thanks to Boerboy for helping me knock out a good chunk of this. But...

These are not mine. Grabbed the picture from an eBay listing. But, I do have the same figures by Charles Hall.

I have a bunch of Quartermaster Corps boxes to reunite with the correct figures. The pictures with the white background all have the full brand name on the base. No brainer that they go with the boxes. But, there are some guys without bases. Can anyone tell me if the guys pictured on top of...

Scrolled through all 45 pages and didn't see this set

I did not. But, I get the impression that that might be a good idea. :LOL:

I found this set in an unlabeled Trophy box, so I automatically assumed that was the maker. But, that assumption has been thrown into question. There's no mark or stamp on the base. And, there's no other figures in my collection that look quite like these guys. I have someone who is...

Thanks again, Al. Would you have a pic or list of crates for the Supply Wagon?

I found a picture of EQ38 Oxen Drawn Ammunition Wagon posted by Martyn a few years ago. For the most part, all the pieces seem to be present and accounted for. The only thing that wasn't clear was what kind of ammo boxes were the riders in the wagon sitting on. The ambulance wagon seems to be...

Awesome. I had part of that correct. I know someone had pointed out that that was two sets, but, I had the set numbers listed as PW11 and PW11A. And, I wasn't aware of the set names, so, I just had it listed as Princes and Hunting Party. I will update my list to reflect the correct info.

Quick look and I didn't see it. But, I've overlooked things in the past. Here's my FOV list you can peruse at your own leisure.

Thanks, Al. Everything has been found and gathered together with the original box.

Perfect. The Russian sailor and the little French dude are in my labelled pictures above. I have the other two as well. And, I'm pretty sure I have the box to boot. Can't believe I missed the dragon gun in your list. I looked that thing up and down probably 10 times. I could pick your...

Many thanks for that wealth of info. I've got a couple of the Hand to Hand sets and the Fields of War. I didn't see the Dragon Gun battery on that list. Would that be part of this range? I'm also trying to confirm whether or not these pieces are from the Peking barricade or a different set.
