Waitng for eBAY listing of this Turret 201 for some time now (at a reasonable price of course)... but Surprise Surprise - my local dealer managed to get it for me instead ! :salute::
My new 1/18 Dauntless from Merit " Battle of the Coral sea". This model has excellent detail just like a model build from kit. It also has good weathering. Very happy with it. I also show it along with my Zero.
Finally the Canadians have come ashore on Juno aka my kitchen counter. I was able to pick up the lot in one swoop of these retired beauties at a local dealer. I am guessing he purchased an idividiual's collection. Not surprisingly it is rare to see these these sets in Canada.
I just got this set. William Hocker's "The Queens Own Presentation Box of Toy Soldiers". This is stunning! 150 or so pieces and comes in an enormous red glossy wooden box. Sorry for the not so great photos, but all of these figures wouldn't fit in my light box that I usually use for taking my photos.
This set is of Queen Victoria's Jubilee. If you look at her in the carriage, that is William Britain next to it handing her a box of toy soldiers.
