    KING & COUNTRY Dispatches -- January 2021

    Hello The World, Great to see such a wide range of figures being released. A welcome start, at least re miniatures ,for 2021. Regarding the Skinner's Horse a comment or two is needed. The Indian Army at the time of the British Raj, is indeed very colourful, but the terminology is aT times...

    Hi GlennRobin, Thanks for the info. It definitely does not sound like a good deal. Keen to get figures but not convinced I want to pay so much for the privilege. Stay safe. Thanks again. Black Bob.

    Britain's Collectors Club descriptions for 2021 & upcoming releases.

    A very basic question. I live in the UK and keen to get some of the club figures, current and planned. Despite the cost getting tempted to subscribe.

    Preview: Prussian Cuirassiers in the Franco-Prussian War

    The 7th (Magdeburg) Cuirassiers “von Seydlitz”. A good choice of regiment, they will lend themselves well to anyone wanting to set up a scene form Von Bredow's Death Ride at the Battle of Mars La Tour. Very interested. The mounted figure at the halt will not fit in with the charge, but will I...

    Franco Prussian war - Prussians

    Achieved aim, eventually. The Vizefeldwebel is EWHG3 and the Rekrut EWHG4. I do not think they are currently available.

    What else do you collect beside toy soldiers

    How I look at your collection with a significant degree of green eyed envy. Not just the content but space available. Looks like a very clean example of a Seitengewehr for a soldier / Mannschaft in the 8.Kompanie, 2. Batalion of an infantry regiment. The area of bayonet and sword knots from...

    Painting Service Required.

    Hello All, I am keen to find someone to paint up Rose Miniatures 54mm figures. Initially it would be for Cameronians circa 1900, 1 officer and 3 riflemen, the latter are all in the same pose. Sadly my skills for painting tartan trousers/trews are no longer up to the mark. So if able and...
