Britains Premier Range (1 Viewer)

[Builtrite]

Here are pieces from the Premier Ranges. These include Britains Premier range while Charles Biggs was still employed at Britains, Premier by Biggs company that he started and folded, and the final incarnation of Premier by Britains while they were owned by Eartl. The figures in marching formations are by J.S.Dietz who closed up his shop in CA. a few years ago.

Brent,

Welcome to the Forum and looks like a very impressive collection.

Very nice Brent. I too collected some of the Premier series. I was interested in the ceremonial gun sets. I started too late to get in at a good time, most having been retired. So I sold my sets several years ago. But they were very nice sets and very well done. I espcially like the planes that you have. Welcome to the forum. TN is a very beautiful state. I enjoyed the times I spent there.

Welcome to forum Brent. I also like the glossy Britains and wwl figures. I see in Toy Soldier& Model figure this month that J.S. Dietz is starting up again after 6 years off. I think he is going to do Sudan because he has a picture of a British officer in the Sudan. I never had his figures and wonder if they are ok. Leadmen

Nice stuff builtrite. Looks like you have all the best of the godies they made in that series.

I love the Premier series too. I have a ton of it, main pieces missing are the 8637 French Gun and the 8639 French Machine Gun.

It was a lot of fun collecting it, although it gets dang confusing when trying to find the different versions - Britains Premier, Premier by Biggs and then Britains Premier by Biggs. If I got that right!

Brent, I like how you have that photo of the battery behind the models, adds some realism to the toy soldiers.

Glossy 'hardware' and WWI go great together. Impressive collection.
