The Barzso Nottingham Castle. Cost quite a penny, especially in shipping and taxes, but it's certainly an impressive model. Pictures will follow.
I've painted a lot of these Tommy's War kits for a fellow collector in OZ .....
Nice figures, great detail too,
John
I didn't know that people in OZ could collect Toys Soldiers in their cell, and more; OZ is a fictional jail !!!
:salute::
Forgive me, I am new here and don't really have the best setup for displaying anything. They are on a high shelf where they are safe from my dogs and cat.
I just got back into Toy soldiers have been on a Britain's kick.
On the right we have a Marine with a Thompson SMG from the Banana Wars in Nicaragua in the 1930s, followed by two British soldiers from WW1, followed by an Astralian Lighthorseman from King & Coountry, followed by another Britains WWI soldier, followed by 2 Britain's soldiers from WWII, followed by a General Pershing, and ended off by two Britian's Nazis armed with STG44s also known as MP44s.

Just arrived this morning. The new limited edition flag bearer and the two lancers I was missing.
Have to say that these are stunningly beautiful pieces. Want to take out all of the Hussars and photograph them but opening these three boxes has left me nervous enough

Early Christmas gifts to myself:
The last one I will be swapping for this week! This a duplicate as I already have one of these. But needed another Landing Craft!

John, what WoR figures are those in the background? I don't recognize either the standard or the colors of the archer. -- AlThis week I collected the 2 standard bearers from my local shop to complete my Battle of Leuthen diorama by John Jenkins.

ROT-11 Roth Wurzburg Infantry Regiment, Infantry Officer With Colonel's Flag & ROT-12 Roth Wurzburg Infantry Regiment, Infantry Officer With Regimental Flag shown with an escort of musketeers.
Maybe this the finish of this group, but I hope that John will do another set to be able to assemble another diorama from this period ???

Many thanks for the answer. Spectacular job. -- AlThe 3 WoR figures are resin masters that John kindly sent to me when they were in the prototype stage a few years back, and he asked me to paint them.

I chose to paint the colours of Thomas Stanley, 1st Earl of Derby who came in to the Battle of Bosworth who initially were unaligned to either side, but sided with Henry to help him achieve victory on that day.
There also is a family connection, with my wife's family (Stanley's) originating in northern England.
