CP Miniatures (2 Viewers)

[kiernan]

Hi

I'm new to the forum but have been collecting for several years. Just bought a set of Royal Australian Regiment Korean War figures by CP miniatures. Very impressed by the quality and they are noted as limited edition of 200. Cannot find out anything about the manufacturer although believe to be Australian. Would be very grateful if anyone could provide information.

Welcome to the forum Kiernan.

They were made in Australia and there is a thread concerning them here-

Are you able to post an image of your Korean war set?

Hi

Do you know if they exported as my set was purchased in the UK? How likely would it be to find another set over here?

As we speak of a short lived company ( lees than 2 years ) I doubt there was enough time for many export .
Sorry, have not a clue .

Kiernan.

I keep an eye out for locally made model soldiers on E-bay and the like and have seen only a few CP Miniatures sets over the last couple of years. I doubt there are many about.
