Big Top Toys (BTT) circus figures were made by a British company called BTT—Big Top Toys, which was a small-scale producer of hand-painted metal circus figures and accessories, primarily active in the 1990s and early 2000s.

Thank you, Louis. It’s a great and quite scarce piece—Len didn’t make many of them. It took me some time to track one down, but I finally received it a few weeks ago.

Pats, please share your story of how you captured the Lion—and its number too! I’m trying to establish patterns so I can track down this elusive beast myself. Think of it as big game hunting...no tranquilizers needed—just patience, luck, and probably a second mortgage.:)

Thank you, Hawkeye, for posting my #1 Trophy target! More photos are very welcome. And please—do share the story of how you got it. What is its number? Did it cost you an arm and a leg... or just your collecting soul? 😄.

Wolfgang, no problem at all—thank you for your input. If you ever need help with AI-generated sketches, blueprints, or ideas for new projects that AI can create, please don’t hesitate to drop me a line in a PM.

This is one of the most underrated Trophy sets. With only 300 made, it sometimes surfaces without its box and certificate and typically sells for a relatively modest price. I buy it every chance I get and have quite a few in stock. Finding it complete—in the original box with Len’s signed...

Thank you, Louis. I think that’s a great price offer—if I had an ambulance, I’d sell or trade it to you myself! 😄

It will be great if you combine iconic British Highlanders with Indian sepoys for a dramatic “Chukoti-style” garrison scene. 15th Ludhiana Sikhs, 14th Sikhs (Ferozepore Sikhs), 11th Bengal Lancers ("Probyn’s Horse") will fit great because they all have red uniforms like in the movie.

I think it’s a great idea and will look impressive—just keep in mind that the Indian regiments in the film look good visually, but they are fictionalized and not historically accurate.

Hawkeye, identifying a Trophy Indian regiment based on uniforms alone is like trying to guess a curry recipe from the smell—possible, but risky. The later issues were more accurate uniform-wise, but the early ones… well, let’s just say Len wasn’t losing sleep over regimental distinctions back...

Very early Indian regiment with British officers or soldiers—honestly, I never liked them much. They’re too generic to identify, and Len didn’t pay much attention to Indian Army uniforms at the time. I sold all mine long ago. If the single figure has a TM mark on the base, then yes—it’s a...
