Many thanks Mike, Joe, Randy and Hawkeye glad you all like it.

In answer to your questions

Hawkeye, I have a couple of dozen in the winter blue uniform but only 2 in the brown fez, white shirt and blue trousers, I’m always on the look out for more though

Mike, the back drop is a picture of the original battlefield, sure was bleak

Randy, the gun emplacement came with the set the other two redoubt sections I acquired over the years

The story continues


A redoubt manned by Egyptian “fellahin” or conscripts

Lovely figures and well displayed as always.
I was always more interested in what came after you know the Madhi etc.
But lovely figures.
To be honest all Trophy figures are wonderful.
If I was Bill Gates I would collect them all,
Thanks for posting.

Many thanks Damian.

The nice thing about this range of figures is the versatility, in 1882 they are fighting against the British and in 1885 they are part of the Gordon Relief Column fighting for the British

Hello Martyn,

Great figures and nice display as always.

.....either face the advancing enemy or the hostile desert to the rear....

Hobson's choice I would say.

Well I hope so Martyn! Even though I don't collect gloss figures I always admire your collections of Trophy figures, especially the Sudan.
