There's a person who sells FL on here from time to time, called Redbag. He posted some items here recently. Although he didn't list the items you're looking for, it may be worth contacting him to ask him to be on the look out for them.

Thanks - I'll reach out to him

Thanks. I saw that one, but once I add shipping, it's pretty pricey

Hi
There's the pair on ebay UK, though if you won then the shipping might be expensive.

Just occurred to me as an alternative to First Legion. Have you considered the figures made by Kronprinz for the Kings and Regimental Colours.
Only problem then is of the different Battalions.
They have (Kronprinz) showing 1st Battn Colours (correctly?) for Peninsular /Waterloo.
Though FL have 2nd Battn Colours being shown, as they say Colours of 1st Battn were more than a bit tatty (and so at Waterloo, 2nd Battn Colours being carried )after this time with the Peninsular campaigns and the 2nd Battn being disbanded.
Language problems aside, Emilio of Kronprinz tells me he has solved the Union (jack) Flag being wrong way round and I have both the Ensigns (Colours) of the Royal Scots or 1st foot (Pontius Pilate's bodyguard) on order.
Hopefully this has clarified matters more than just muddied the waters !

Says he doesn't post to US.

I've dealt with him before. He will mail to US. I find that most eBay sellers who say in their listings that they won't mail to the US will do so, if requested.

You are absolutely correct. I think many times they just want to be sure that the Buyer understands
the increased cost (postage, customs and etc.), and get a better estimate.

All set - thanks!

All set - thanks!

I am looking for the same flag bearers plus the drummer and bag piper of the Gordon Highlanders.
I have been checking ebay and looking at the classifieds but no success - any ideas?

Thank you!

For the flag bearers will the FL-ickstarter campaign suit your needs?

There is a target number, my guess is its 50 pieces and it looks like it will not make it, its 8% for one and 10% for the other. I have been meaning to get a KC piece the "Adler" I will get that one if this is going to fall short.

I placed orders through the FL campaign but it looks like it will not make it

 

[spartan71]

I was ready to get the Highlanders, and was waiting​ for the confirmation that the standard Bearers was going to be made. But that will not happen, again without the standard Bearers, I consider the line dead.

 

[spartan71]

The British are known to form a square in battle, to form up on the colours in the middle some place, if they do not have the colours where are they suppose to form up to, we don't have any piece that has bag pipes, drums, pipe, horn.nothing to form to. For any new/ someone that is just starting to collect, the line is dead, so don't bother. Just find something that has a centerpiece, which the Highlander does not have without the standards.
