The TRADITION web site item is shown above the photo of the three other figures. Jack Duke NEVER sold his special commissions commercially so Tradition are illegaly selling something they must have "acquired" elsewhere

It is worth repeating. Jack and Thelma Duke NEVER sold this figure commercially. So someone has made a great big copyright fraud Boo Boo

I was lucky that Jack Duke gave me one of his Danish Kettle Drummers about 20 years ago as a casting and it has now been joined by a couple of Tradition Hussars to lead my parade for the Coronation of King Frederik X earlier this year. fredXas.jpg

Max and Maryse will be selling individual figures, and initialy sold "loose" I E Not boxed figure sets, at this early time. As part of a service however to encourage younger Model makers to "convert" and create new figures of their own, and to help try to bring back to the Hobby more young Modellers once more, a series of "conversion parts sets" is to be issued.

These will include separate heads, legs, bodies hands weapons etc. There will also be a number of separate, different posed Horses as part of the series.
Boxed figure sets are planned for the future, once re established. Restoring several of the large figure ranges has taken a great committment in personal time and energy, following the demise of the previous owner in bad health, and the chaotic state much of it was found to be in.
CHOTA SAHIB and STUDIO FIGURES .
Max and Maryse FABRE CHEVALLIER purchased the complete former "Sarum Soldiers" Ranges of these items from retired "International Buisnessman" Patrick J D WILLIS in 2009. This was a bone fide legaly witnessed purchase using UK legal Solicitors and well and clearly documented.
The classic figurine ranges were never sold or somehow "licensed" to anybody "else" at any time.

The FABRE CHEVALLIER family continue to own and to fully posess all materiel and toolings, Moulds and Masters and full Documentation in Europe, so this firmly de bunks and shows up anybody o selling copies or re casted products.
This also includes items" sold by "TRADITION" of London (Stockholm ) who have been copying a number of the figures illegaly.

As part of the re Launch this year of the ranges from New Zealand now owned by them, the family will also be re issuing Chota Sahib and Studio figurine ranges. Which no doubt shall prove interesting to collectors everywhere.
Meanwhile, Max and Maryse welcome honest and traditional toy soldier collectors from around the world, and invite enquiries from interested hobby enthusiasts interested in buying some of their many figures or kits.

A Dedicated Internet Server is being set up from which shortly it will once again become easily possible to buy the toy soldiers.

Please leave a message on TREEFROG or alternatively, for Toy Soldier questions only, E mail max Chevallier on.

Please note that the Chevalliers do not offer toy soldiers through anyone else, and will not be using or selling " on E Bay".
