I had a request for some comparison photos with W. Britain's so I figured I could put them on here in case anyone else had the same question!

Thanks Julie,

To try and expand on this and to help people with the question;

These do fit with W Britain figures within a diorama setting.
The tea stained helmet on our version was done to a) set us apart / not to plagiarise another manufacturer and b) to offer some variety of colour, as there would have been.
These first four have a heavy tea stained rifle sling, again for the above reason. The next 6 are a lot whiter.
The expansion bag (or ball bag has it was also called ) was not part of standard equipment but an additional private purchase item. In later regs, the suggested positioning for this expansion bag was to the rear. Many soldiers did place them on the right hip for ease of use. Again, we did this to offer variation.
The uniform colour matches far better than that of the FL and TGM figures.
The size is also closer than that of the above two manufacturers.

Our range is due to expand to be at least 14 figures in size for 24th foot in the next six months with further expansion planned for the second half of 2016. This will of course mean that these figures can be displayed together well.

Hope this helps too.

Malcolm. :salute::
