What Toy Soldier items Have You Acquired in The Last 2 Weeks ? (1 Viewer)

This weekend I have completed another couple of batches of Stadden figures from the Napoleonic era......

Yours mate or customer?

Oh no, these are definitely part of my collection.

One of the local guys had a big box of these figures, he said there was no way that he could paint them, and so was quitting some of stuff. I got about half of them.
He also arranged a sale for me of a lot of Historex Napoleonic plastic kits that I have had for years, and that I won''t even make because I have so many metal casting to do.

Anyway, I'll show you them all when you come to town.

Here are another couple I recently painted:

Thanks to a tip from our good friend Mark (Saxon Lions), I was able to pick up three wonderful, late production, highly detailed Heco Tinplate Models, an FE2b 2-seater pusher plane fighter, a Royal Aircraft Factory RE 8, a two seater light bomber/reconaissance plane I did not even know Heco had made (possibly a custom commission), and a highly detailed late production single-seater Bleriot Monoplane.
