As shown in Toddy's pic's, these very large and realistic figures are brilliant to see in person.

Some more of the MG crew.

Last lot of pic's and the last one show's a lee-enfield rifle jimmied up to cover the retreating Anzac's from Gallipoli cove. The apparatus worked by water condensation collecting in a tin and then slowly filling up to enable the occasional shot to be fired at the Turks. This was very effective and the Turks had no idea that a withdrawal was taking place right under there noses.

Outstanding effort Tom posting all of that lot!!:salute::

I'm still looking through them mate, you got some very good snaps of the big Gallipoli Dio and love the pic's of the colourised WW1 photographs.

Did you manage to spot the figure of Peter Jackson in the big Gallipoli dio??

He's kneeing down taking photographs near a command post wearing his famous shoulder braces? {sm4}
