Luiz Fleury collection Sudan/NWF and French Foreign Legion 54mm

Views: 5

If you want to see the full collection of pics try to join the International Toy Soldier Club (ITSC) club 93 members but growing and if I may say so great quality (not talking about my contributions). And there you can comment and post and interact with other members.

Enjoy! I did

Mounted Officer.
A good observation post.
Very good DIORAMA.
Nice Artillery vignette.
Guess he is attracted by the same themes as me!
British Khaki Colonials is also a favourite of mine
Excellent mix of manufacturers

Of course one advantage is that as long as your scenery is a bit neutral it can be used very easily in the NWF and in North Africa.

See the French Foreign Legion pics below.

Legion on the march.
Smacks of March or Die… but who does not!
I thought I was the only one indulging in FFL manning Artillery!… suddenly I do not feel alone
Excellent models (or Toy Soldiers)… I guess mine are a bit more on the Toy Soldier side
Fantastic scenery and backdrop.

Find hereby some delightful vignettes done by Andrew Stevenson from REPLICA METAL MODEL SOLDIERS.

There are several years specials (for X’mas) mixed up.

Quite peaceful if you ask me…

Enjoy!

And now some real toy soldiers after the sugary season… original subjects to say the least!

If you do collect 54mm Toy Soldiers it would be a good idea to join The International Toy Soldier Club… really good company!

Look one of the last Posts there… A highlander late campaign uniform (kakhi) full Band (Band + Fifes&Drums)… done by Andrew Stevenson for a customer no other than James Opie of worldwide fame expertise on Britains Toy Soldiers.

A fantastic set (bespoke… so unique)…

Enjoy!

The Band
The Pipes and Drums.

Published in the web of the ITSC (The International Toy Soldier Club) this is an awesome set done by Andrew Stevenson for a customer (a lucky customer I will add full of positive envy!).

It reproduces one mythical set of Old Britains with figures ad hoc (many of them Britains never did I must clarify!).

Never have seen something so awesome in years of collecting.

Enjoy!

Naval Gun on wheels… for landing party.
Royal Marines Light Infantry… and Bluejackets pulling limber…
Second level of the box!
Command and Signals.
Great landing party!
Medical station.
Firing line.
The massive box and the superior tray… Awesome!

REPLICA comes back with an orgy of redcoats!

The long awaited return of REPLICA is here!… and this set from the owner is very similar (enhanced by a lot more of figures for the pic) to a commission from the National Army Museum (UK).

What else can I say?

Enjoy!

A very similar composition is now at the National Army Museum… courtesy of REPLICA!
Another view of the decorations to Royal Fusiliers!
They look very similar but the details are important!
My own work would never be in a Museum… but I love that some figures in my collection are from Andrew Stevens from REPLICA!

REPLICA (or Andrew) is BACK!

I woke up today and for the life of me I could not remember what I intended to post today!… to my delightful surprise I stumbled in a post from Andrew at REPLICA… and here you have a choice of pics (there are more on Facebook in the group mytoysoldiersandme). Damn good news… I hope he is back in the saddle again for keeps… Enjoy!

A fine General! (with ADC)
Fusiliers
Territorials
Exotic uniforms…

As far as 54mm New Toy Soldiers akin to Britain’s go… you do not need to search more… REPLICA it is… and that’s that. (Alternatively there are other well known trade marks as Dorset Soldiers / Imperial Soldiers and Steadfast (R.Prati) to say but two!).

Here you can have a sight of the new premises… as we all know we have been promised start of production by next January 2023… keep your fingers crossed and hope for the best!.
