Wow Martyn, now you made me envious

They are looking very good in these white uniforms, I have never seen these sets before...

Did they come in boxes with LE certificate and what are sets numbers?
Also what was "the damage", if you do not mind me asking ?

I will post pictures of my SA-band later this afternoon.

Hi Al

Many thanks, glad you like them

They came in two boxes, one of 12 figures and one with 24 figures. No cert but the set numbers are RWK25 and RWK25a. Vey reasonable price, less than £10 each

Looking forward to seeing pictures of your sets

Cheers

Nice sets Al, do the bases have the TM trade mark? I ask because some of the sets commissioned by Rod Keys have and some haven't.

Hi Al

Here are four I know of

RW5A - Battle wagon - 5 figures with a small cart
RWK 9 - 6 piece Funeral March
RWK 20 - 12 piece band
RWK 26 - 24 piece French Congo marching band

Thank you, Martyn... very interesting info... do you know quantities of these sets? French Congo band sounds intriguing? I have seen a small 4-5 figures "sitting" X-mas SA set...

Hi Al

Hi Martyn,
No questions about it: your SA set is quite unique, could you ask Len about this set and Ray Keys sets next time you talk with him, please.
