As an impulse buy, I purchased the "Come and Take it" gun set from the Texas War of Independence, only to find out that Hans has long been after the piece. Needless to say, I will be posting it to my good friend Hans tomorrow.:wink2:

Here are the two Zulu figures I picked up in Chicago. Could have picked up more but space -- and money -- were becoming a factor. I noticed that the base of the British figure is quite thick. Does that signify something?

 

[nysoldiers]

The special Rorke's Drift set had the thicker bases.......

 

[jazzeum]

Thanks. Does that mean it's rarer?

Hi Brad

That figure represents LT. ARDENDORFF from the Defence of Rorke's Drift set, if you look under the base this name should be engraved there. The figure was only available with the set, nice find:salute::

Martyn,

I can't claim any great sleuthing abilities. I just liked the way he looked. These were part of the the figures that Nicholas (Scarlet Pimpernel) was selling (maybe 20 in all) and I believe there were other figures similar to the Lt.

I wonder why anyone would break up a set? ^&confuse

Hi Brad

I could not work out the logic of breaking up a set unless the building, for instance, had gone AWOL

I managed to find an extra ADENDORFF at a London Show a couple of years ago, here is a picture of my figures along with a couple of pictures of the bases. If you look closely you can see the name ADENDORFF is not from a stamp, they are both slightly different

I know Clive (Lurcio) picked up several figures from the set, almost the complete set in fact, at a London Show

Cheers

[jazzeum]

Thanks for the information Martyn. I don't think Clive picked up any of these figures this past weekend and having seen these on Friday, I don't think anyone purchased any of them until I did on Sunday.

I will look at the base of the Lt. tonight and report back :smile2:

Cheers,

Betting you'll find the info there Brad an the additional 13 figures you saw were figures I purchased years ago where the set had already been broken up. Had Martyn hunting the Rev. and Dalton for me over the past few years.
