Hi,

As some of you will be aware I am spending the summer relocating my collection. Unfortunately my new display space cannot accommodate all my toy soldiers so I am very very very reluctantly selling duplicates. I have listed below details of what I currently have available. I will add photos separately. Please PM if you are interested in any of the sets. Prices exclude shipping which will be charged separately.

Best wishes

Note: please note condition of all items is used with some wear and tear. There may be a few bits of paint loss/chips, small breaks and/or repairs undertaken by previous owners. I have included a more detailed overview of condition where there may be other issues. I have tried to list makers and set names to the best of my knowledge but I am not an expert and I could be wrong too! I have shared the list with some other fellow collectors so items listed are subject to availability.
