    Are they Egyptian, French or something completely different?

    I have these two Dorset figures that I believed to be Egyptian. Their uniforms, to me, seemed very similar to Trophy Egyptian artillery figures I have. However, someone whispered in my ear that they look more like French Tirailleurs Senegalese. I did find one figure on eBay listed with that...

    WWI Germans

    Two questions about these guys. 1. Who is the maker? 2. Does the officer appear to come from somewhere else? The paint detail is very similar. But, I notice the arm is either a replacement or from a different maker. The base is also a bit thinner than the rest of the pack.

    IDs for knights.

    Discussion on a FB group has led to some uncertainty. The picture with 4 figures I originally thought was all Cherilea. The figure on the right has the name stamped on the base. The 2 on the left have the name handwritten on the base. However, there has been a challenge claiming the two with...

    Marlborough figures to ID

    Marlborough was one of the first makers that I tackled when trying to match up loose figures with the correct boxes. These guys are the stragglers for which no box exists. Trying to figure out who they are and whether or not they belong together. The lancers, for example. There are two...

    London Bridge figures

    I have a few sets of figures from London Bridge when they were based in Emmaus, PA. Are they still producing their own line under the new ownership in TN? I know personal preferences vary by collector, but, did these figures ever generate much interest? Pics of some of the sets can be viewed...

    David Christ Collection on line

    I want to thank everyone on here for the assistance towards identifying the pieces in this collection. It is not 100% complete. But, I have uploaded quite a bit of what's available ahead of the MFCA show this weekend. A price guide is available upon request if you are not able to stop by our...

    The Great Hotel ID Project: Britains Edition

    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...

    The Great Hotel ID Project

    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...

    Any Quartermaster Corps aficionados on here?

    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...

    Need confirmation - Boer War Artillery

    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...

    2 wagon sets

    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...

    Trophy or UTF?

    There's some debate whether these guys are early Trophy or Under Two Flags. What say you guys?

    Indian Prince and Falconer hunting party

    Looking for an official name and/or set number for this group. The only place I've found it so far is on an auctioneer site where they had it listed as an Indian Army Cavalry. That does not seem correct to me. Is it?

    3 Flagbearers to ID

    Dug out these 3 guys today. There's no box for any of them. Looking for set numbers and/or descriptions. The first two are labelled 2003 on the base with the guy on the right showing 2012. I've had feedback that the guy on the right bears the flag of Inniskilling (27th Foot) at Waterloo...

    The White Box Album

    This has been one of the more challenging parts of deciphering what goes where when it comes to matching up the loose soldiers in this collection with the empty boxes that are available. I have these long white boxes that look to fit roughly six figures. But, the set numbers make no sense to...

    Unicorn Regiment

    I've dubbed these guys the Unicorn Regiment because I can't find anything quite like them. Anyone able to help put a correct title to the uniform?

    Need help identifying Indian flagbearers

    I had these guys narrowed down to either 127th Baluchs or 29th Bombay Native Infantry. Are either of those correct? As far as the guy carrying the ammo box, was he sold as a single figure? Of all the Indian sets I have, there is nothing else like him in this collection. Thanks in advance for...

    Are these pillars JG?

    Besides the Roman Fortress, I have quite a few other JG pieces. Can't confirm if these were from them as well.

    Peking Gate figures

    If I'm not mistaken, any figures that go with the Peking Gate set have blue bases. Is that correct? These pictures include the box that I found with the set number displayed along with all the figures I have with blue bases. The big question is do all these figures belong with this set and/or...
