Britains Durbar Question (2 Viewers)

Could we not have a separate Durbar thread not a Beau Geste or Britains as we all are mixing and matching our collections.

Hi Damian,

We actually do its in the general toy soldier discussion thread. It has a lot of nice photos and some interesting discussion too.

All the best

Gentle Friends,

For months, I have looked for the Britains Set #08848, Imperial Elephant Durbar Procession. Finally, through a stroke of good luck and a great tip from Maddadicus, I located the object of my search. I am really excited to include this piece in my Durbar collection. I thought you might enjoy seeing a few pictures of it, which, if I am successful, should appear below.

I hope you enjoy the pictures!

Warmest personal regards,

Pat :)

Wow Pat it looks great! I can hardly wait for mine. Were there any other takers on that elephant?

Hi Vamp,

I talked with the folks from whom we purchased our elephants today. They have sold all of them. We were very, very lucky to get them.

Warmest personal regards,

Pat, had I known they were this nice, I should have bought one. NAH, who am I kidding, there is no cannon sticking out of the tusks or lasers coming from its butt....I am such a war monger....Michael

Hi Michael,

:D :D :D

Now you know why I was in such a hurry to call you for further information. I had to move with all possible speed if I hoped to secure this set. Thank you so much for the tip!

If you had purchased one, you could have checked with Fish or Vamp to see if they could make the modifications in the figure to comply with your preferences! As very recently evidenced, they are very talented in that regard! :D

Thanks for your feedback. I really, really like this set. My collection of Britains Delhi Durbar Elephants is now complete, thanks in large part to you!

Warmest personal regards,

Pat :)

Hi KV,

Now that we've left Camalot I have to ask where are the pictures of your latest acquisition? I imagine the elephants are all happy and parading together. So let see them or I will unleash the Black Beast again!!!

All the best

Dave
