Well seeing as other members have their wish lists, I thought I would start one for the AZW. What are you guys hoping for?

Here are a few for me


Wagons (horses, oxen)
Colour Sergeant Bourne
RHA
Tents
17th Lancers

 

[The Breaker]

CS Bourne
Sgt. Windridge
Col. Durnford
Natal Native Horse
17th Lancers
Naval Brigade

Heck one could go on and on. I wouldn't mind seeing WBritain go on for a few more years with the Zulu War.

I think there are some great items on the list but how about a multi piece Zulu Kraal and then a grouping of troops from the Battle of Ulundi with troops from the 80th 90th and 58th and more of the 94th Regiments and a Royal Artillery 7 or 9 pounder

I wouldn't mind seeing a RHA gun but in gloss

 

[General Custer]

Correct Gatling and Crew

In matte, of course!

 

[Mister Dave]

I've always loved this guy. Would love to see him made by WB.

What? No shared enthusiasm for the "Pride of the 24th"? The title of the painting referring to this old timer loading what likely proves to be his last round at Isandlwana.

MD

 

[The Breaker]

Absolutely, a great painting (Bud Bradshaw?) and it would make a great figure. Gotta love the mutton chops.

Would make a great figure Dave. Very nice.

YEE HA!!! WHOOOPEEE! besides that Dave, I think WB already has the basic pose with the guy loading...Maybe a repaint coming up from a forum member?

PS-Glad you're back from service! Thanks for it!

Seems like he's been done in plastic by Conte he appears next to Chard loading his Marini-Henry and you'll note my Aide de Camp he's done in gloss along with the other rankers and Chard

Lt.,
I knew that Nigel Greene figure looked familiar! Thanks for reminding us, My Lord!

Little Legion has also made this figure.

 

[Mister Dave]

Alright, now that is more like it.

Now you mention it, I guess LL does sell a figure bearing a remarkable likeness to this guy. Did not realize Conte had made him too. Hopefully WB will make their own version with massive greying mutton chops and all.

Also, thanks for the well wishes Mike. I am nearly done now (not quite yet) and my wife has begun counting down the days.

[The Lt.]

Here's the same poses of the figure done by LL

 

[Mister Dave]

Yes, resurrecting an old neglected thread here, but had a couple of comments. First, was happy to hear mention by an attendee at the recent London show of a mutton chopped 24th Foot figure in the works. Secondly, adding to the wish list, I'd love to see a 2 or 3 figure wounded set of 24th Foot figures at some point.

Looks like I got one off of my wishlist
