OUTSTANDING ARTY PIECES !!^&grin

Does anyone remember the brief mark called Welsh Dragon Miniatures c. 1985 or so ? I remember that they only put out two small sets, the Camel Corps c. 1885 and the Royal Marines again from the same campaign. I remember they were clad in dark gray tunics, wore gloves, had some equipment, and had...

I have this set, too...one of my most cherished...

EXCELLENT SET, BEAUTIFULLY PAINTED ! WOW !!:salute::

Excellent set ! I have Tunstill's Scots Guards, full equipment, at sling arms mint in the box...incidentally, caught a glimpse of the new OTSN catalogue today, and it has an AWESOME section of "new" old toy soldier sets and figs., including mid-production Trophy Camel Corps, Trophy gatling guns...

Does anyone have many of the early thin figures from Len and the crew which first came out in the early-mid '80s ? I have @15 Camel Corps troops (thin and delicate bayonets !) many of which were purchsed from The Stockade in PA several years back...also odds and ends on Ebay, etc...complimented...

Absolutely exquisite !! Can't beat 'em for quality painting and detail...I recently purchased the Dunedin Highland Rifle Volunteers from the OTSN auction for $129, including shipping....also, a mounted Coldstream Guards officer from the Crimean Campaign (will he soon be recalled for combat duty...

Unfortunately, I did check out my KOSB men and the OTSN Dragoons, they appear to be painted by a 3rd party not only from the eye painting, but also the two original figures that I do have from him do have a "CH" logo faintly engraved on the bottom of the base. However, whoever painted the...

I am very lucky to have obtained a BOXED set of 6 Charles Hall KOSB in mint condition from an Ebay dealer some time ago...I also just won at auction a set of MOUNTED Charles Hall Dragoon Guards which look to be extremely rare, white plumed at the halt w/drawn sabers. The detail on these figures...

#A7, which I also have boxed, is a VERY impressive field piece !

I LOVE the Kingcast line ! I recently sold my newer 40 pdr. siege gun (Indian Army, British crew) but kept the older boxed one...I also have 4-5 other sets, including the Royal Marine Lt. Infantry Color Party at attention, the "Wolf of Mafeking" howitzer and crew, and the RHA gatling gun and...

Well, I for one am quite happy (and fortunate) to have picked up a TAW WW1 long-barrelled field gun at the South Florida Toy Soldier Show last weekend...five man crew in grayshirts and softpeak caps serving a large lightgreen khaki field piece somewhat similar in looks to the Boer War 4.7" Naval...

The German band might very well have been done by the late Walt Dineen of Palm Beach, FL. He passed away in the early '90s, I believe. I have seen a couple of his sets at various shows. His eye paintings on the figures are a strong indication that these are Walt's creation. He was also well...

Jim, thanks for your input. The Cowan/Kingcast connection re: set composition and uni style is also apparent with your RMLI set. I believe my troops are KC's interpretation of the 26th Middlesex Vols. Great to have this support group ! Uncled Dave

John, that BA31 KC set sounds like it's the one ! And it does sound like Peter Cowan's signature set composition (officer on tricycle and three troopers on bikes). The painting stylization and sculpturing is quite similar to the several KC sets which I own (personal fave of mine is the "Wolf Gun...

I recently purchased online a nice (unboxed) Bicycle set with a sgt. on a tricycle and three troopers on bikes. They wear blue-gray unis with service caps and red facings. Facial details include eyebrows and full sweeping mustaches. I have the Marktime Middlesex Volunteers set boxed, so they are...

Did Edmunds ever make any Brits or Scotties ?? I just purchased a very nice set of Camerons in khaki on Ebay and the detail is awesome, very compatible to Trophy...long rifles with LONNNGG bayonets, similar to an Edmunds figure. Could they also be Soldiers of the Queen ? They came with no box...

I very regretfully sold my 1:18 scale Tiger I at the NE Toy Soldier Show a few years ago...great detail in the interior included an 88 mm shell rack and loader feed , turret mg , clutch and pedals, etc. Just didn't have the room to properly display it, alas !! :(

Kingcast are terrific sets, I have 7 of them including "The Wolf Gun of Mafeking" replete with Major Panzera commanding ! Also the heavy howitzer mounted for field duty w/RGA crew, the 5.6" field howitzer again w/RGA crew, the RHA Gatling Gun w/crew in full dress, the Black Watch India Gatling...

There was a terrific Yeomanry set recently offered on Ebay...4 troopers w/full equipment Martini Henrys on the hip and a bugler, boxed in mint condition...alas, the UK-USA postage amounted to @ $50.00 !!! These, like the 2nd Battalion Royal Fusiliers set which I have, are part of the HM "Field...
