There has been a suggestion that the knights might be from "Prince Bishop" who were around in the middle of the 1990s... The one photo of a knight I have been sent from an American magazine does look similar, but if so, then there are some moulds missing for things like spectators, etc....

We will be there - hopefully with some new figures (if I get then in time...) and some samples of the Agincourt range that I hoping to finally get out.
Come and say hello...
Mike
Still working away on some things and trying to get some new stuff finished as well.
This is a sample of the new Naval Brigade figures that will be coming to accompany the 4.7 Naval Gun and crew....
New thread to show things we are working on and new releases as they get moulded and painted.
First up are the Governor General's Bodyguard
TB115 - 3 Troopers £90
TB116 - Indian Officer £35
TB117 - European Officer £35
More chance to spin some moulds today as part of a casting run. Here are the results for some more knight moulds:
More horse and horse head variants.
Dead horse and a couple of piles of dead knights.
This third one includes a weapon rack and a stand with helmets and shields - I assume...
Yes, it is a little bit like that, and not knowing which pieces came from which box... :)
I am extremely busy at the moment but when things quieten down I should have time to devote a couple of days to sorting them out...
Mike
Nice looking figures, as always.
There are a couple of other moulds with knight bits in them that I haveyet to cast. Once I have sorted through everything and worked out what goes with what I will be making them available as kits and I am happy to supply spare parts from the kits for other...
Hi Brad,
yes, the knights have a small oval base - which didn't fully cast when I spun the mould the once- - I am assuming that the two back legs and the extra pin are used to attach it to the base.
The mounted Napoleonics have bases as well.
I will be making the figures available as castings...
Hi Brad.
A couple of the moulds I have looked at have dollies in them - including the dolly used for the kneeling french and british figures so I am pretty sure these are a range developed by whoever produced the moulds. Thereare some odd figures that look 28mm and some orses that look more...
I threw a few moulds on the end of a casting run on Friday and have tacked a couple of figures roughly together to show the style. They all have oval bases with a dimpled texture on them which might be a clue.

Photos below:
I have just received some 50 moulds of 54mm Toy Soldiers which cover mostly French Napoleonics, British Napolenics and some Jousting Knights.
The moulds are 9" black rubber with the slightly unusual thing of having lumps of rubber in them as locators and also having square metal locating pegs...
Sadly I won't be at the show this time - other commitments plus still catching up after 3 weeks in New Zealand mean that I am going to miss it.
I will be at the June and December show and am working on a couple of new releases for those shows at the moment.
I am also taking delivery of a bunch...
Just a heads up that I am away for 3 weeks in February on holiday in New Zealand, although we have house sitters looking after the cats they won't be casting and painting!
The online shop will still be open and I will handle any orders placed when I get back from holiday from March 2nd onwards...
