Hi, unfortunately most are currently packed, but here is the gist:

A. Russian - most of what Zach Posted I have except he has a few excellent ones I don't! I have all the Aeroart Chinese ones that he didn't post - Warlord with Parasol, 2 versions Warlord with Howdah, 1 Chinese Emperor Elephant. Also have the Elephant that is on the Cover of the Aeroart Book. Siamese is on its way to me. Greek, Carthaginian, Roman

I don't have the Tiger Hunt (Aeroart) nor the Shah elephants, one day!


B. Beau Geste - All


C. Marlborough - All

D. Trophy - All many variations except for 1 civilian one I think


E. Tradition - all


F. Steadfast - all


H. Britains - all


I. Hocker - all including a one off


J. Kingcast - all


K. Many Miscellaneous makers - Four Feathers, Hornung, Hiriart, All the Queens Men, Ship Shop, Royal Regiment, Collectors Showcase, First Legion, Blackhawk, at least 3 Niena Russian large dio ones - Wedding Elephant, Tiger Hunt and myriad of others.


L. Lesinski Sudan and Durbar elephants


M. Little Lead Soldiers - nearly all

N. Royal Express - at least 2 of them

O. Verlinden and Andrea Kit elephants to be painted.

Really more than I can remember and I am sure some I forgot. That said, it is amazing that when I see one, I know if I have it or not!! Main ones still seeking are the very hard and rare Aeroart/Arsenyev ones that include some of what Zach has shown and some others. I may have over 100 elephants, I honestly lost count and I am sure some are duplicated!

yes, you are invited for the large reveal when I finally start re-amassing the Pachyderm army. You will have first trade on them! (although honestly you probably have them all!! or at least the ones that you want).

Thanks, but after actually reading that off the top of my head list, Dumfounded is the term that is coming to mind more. Or Obsession!

Nuts

Impressive!

Forgot,
Also have a Tommy Atkins, Alymer Elephant sets, Various unbranded Russian Sets.

Also remembered I have several rare Lucotte/Mignot Raj Durbar type elephant set. These are unique in that each one is slightly different, there is one on ebay now for reference being sold by a seller in France, it is a beauty, but not cheap!

My son and I have no where near as many as Tom and Zach, but here are our elephants, from King & County, Four Feathers, Lesinski (both 60mm and 30 mm), to name a few:

A few more . . .

[zblang]

Two of my favorites!

 

[paxtoysoldier]

We just have Tommy Atkins's Carthaginian elephant, Black Hawk's same, Britain's Curzon & Connaught & Hyderabad & Bikaner @ Durbar, Wm. Hocker's elephant in his Tiger Hunt set, and three other lesser ones including Marlborough's baby. Still very cool.
We like to have a showing of elephants, chariots, camels, horses, artillery canoes & tanks - well, everything. Yet again Mr. Lang (also the name of Pat Jr.'s HS principal btw) & others outdo us yet again{eek3}.
Maybe there should be threads like this all the time, like chariots or biplanes.
Great thread. Best wishes & happy collecting to all
Pat & Pat
