Hi Guys,

Thanks to the growing popularity of our various (and colourful) ‘CEREMONIAL’ ranges we decided to put together our newest brochure aptly titled ‘CEREMONIAL’.

This 24 page, full colour brochure features 8 famous military formations from around the world in their full dress, parade uniforms.

Colourful military uniforms have always interested me and even hark back to my own earliest days as a toy soldier collector... My very first memory of being given some toy soldiers was a box of 6 dismounted Life Guards alongwith 3 more mounted figures from the same regiment.

The nine pieces were to go with a toy fort my Dad made for me.

Anyway, one of the things I really enjoy about ‘CEREMONIAL’ is seeing toy soldiers on parade... If you like the same then this brochure and collection is for you!

It also makes a refreshing change from ‘olive drab’ and ‘field gray’.

All the best for the weekend,

Andy

Yes my imagination was sparked around 6 years old with a book called ‘Bom the little drummer boy’ with the centre pages of the book showing a long line of standing at attention, figures on parade, in those iconic beaver hats and smart red tunics. This was the seed that no doubt has stayed with me my whole life and why these images in the brochure are so alluring even today. Your brochures are becoming more like books Andy. Just received my Vietnam one yesterday. Robin.
 
If you had to have only a small collection of toy soldiers these figures would be what I would go for. So iconic. And yet I currently have none of them and more is the pity.

Gary mate,
These figures are the absolute best. Collecting them and adding more each month takes me back 65 years to when I was eight years old and had a great collection of British Ceremonial figures both marching and mounted. Cannot remember what brand they were but I loved them. Not really sure what my Mum did with them after I left home and was married.

Cheers Howard
 
I don't collect ceremonials, but there is something about them that takes me back to younger days when collecting toy soldiers was a child's game, no concerns about scale, cost or what a collection was worth.
 
just yesterday 34 new Recruits of the Swiss Guard were sworn in in the courtyard of the Apostolic Palace in the Vatican City

Hi Andy, the Ceremonial Range is beautiful and potentially infinite. Hope in the next future we'll se figures portraying Yeomen of The Queen and Yeomen Warders, also i "reiterate" here my request for a series of Prince Philip figures...:)
