Swiss Papal Guard Colour Party Set ID (1 Viewer)

Can't figure the marking out and it is escaping me at the moment. Has what looks like a fancy M on base and then other writing. Anyhow, these are super well done, not flimsy metal, style is almost Trophy and quality is almost as good. High quality gloss, anyone know who made them?

I'm almost certain they were made by this company. Unfortunately the link to the Swiss Guard figures they make is broken. http://www.newtoysoldiers.it/e_comm...iguren_collection/toy_soldiers/ducato_modena/

Hi, there is some resemblance, but the eyes are very distinct and different on other sets, so I am not sure. I am going to try and look at the marking again and compare to stuff I have.

Prost!

anybody have any ideas on this? I thought maybe Mars, but that doesn't look right. Ironically, the faces are as well done as any glossy i have seen, i just can't remember who did these.

Unfortunately, the trademark doesn't ring any bells.

For what it's worth, it looks like the second letter in the name is an "i", which would give us "Mi". It's also unfortunate that there's a casting bubble right in the middle of it.

Maybe someone else will recognize it. I can take your photo and share it in the Facebook groups I belong to, unless Dave N beats me to it.

Prost!

Thanks, if and when we find out, I know I will kick myself for not remembering!
