Hi,
Fantastic collection. I have a question about the two officer figures behind the pedestal mounted machine gun. One officer is writing on a board and has a thin base, while the second officer is wearing brown gloves and is mounted on a thicker base. Who manufactures these figures?

Thanks
Benjamin

Hi Benjamin,
For some reason the pictures you were referring to, were taken away.....you can see them all at my albums in my profile. As to your question they are STADDEN. A fantastic manufacturer of the 60/70s that due to time and other factors is no longer trading....a pitty for he had the most detailed sets ever.....here I post the referred picture....

This is what happens when you get some ' lost treasures from Hinchliffe, add to that equation two crazy guys....one ( me ) to search around for sets and propose changes to come up with unique new dios , then the second one ( Obee - half the world away )...a very professional artist that can actually make the first crazy guy's ideas come true...........well you get a great set of Indian Colonial Mountain artillery set with some supporting infantry giving protection to the gun and gunners as they fire long range salvos at Afeghan fighters blocking the passage of the main British column into the Kyhber Pass.....
John, just sent me these pics and I look froward to having them sometime in January and therefore share with you all full dio set ups.....

Cheers A_C

These are the most recent British Empire sets to be added to my collection....
After a long trip between the UK - Brazil - Australia they finally arrived and are now being incorporated to the current standing battalions....Thanks to Obee and his magic..... :salute::

My versatile K&C Desert Fort line....Here I have my K&C Desert set manned by Heritage British Infantry supported by a Heritage Naval Contingent protected by JG Miniature trench sections along with a Premier British General Service wagon/driver - an old Trophy soldier ( currently sourcing for a better driver ) and some additional JG Miniature props...and finally some Steasfast/Buldog Artillery pieces...
