54mm Toy Soldiers – Page 17 – My Toy Soldiers & Me

A GENTLEMAN’S WAR: Still more pics

Sometimes my 54mm fever is high… must be one of those periods. Enjoy while it lasts.

Surely you can admit they have a charm of their own.

A GENTLEMAN’S WAR: more pics

I have posted a lot of Scott Lesch work because it is awesome!… Does that mean that I am going to indulge in the Franco-Prussian War (1870)? NOT AT ALL!… but you must admit his production of Armies is very mice indeed!. And sometimes when awareness is down… I think of it seriously!.

The fact that every unit seems to field a “cantiniere” is non important for me… but adds a “je ne sais quoi”… LOL

I added those Prussians as an afterthought

So here they are… The Second Reich would be won at the end of the campaign.

Daniel Borris Own 54mm Toy Soldiers

He posts frequently in Facebook… and his collection is really impressive!… he even got in it the late Featherstone’s Armies… Those Highlanders are Britain’s of course… but he is an eclectic collector and has items from a variety of makers. Enjoy!

REPLICA GUARDROOM COLLECTION

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!.

Michael Nash presents: Nate Fogt’s of Nate’s Garage

All items seen in facebook as reported in the Chicago Toy Soldier Show… items exposed and sold in less than an hour… and no wonder!… Enjoy!

Scott Lesch’s Own

Splendid castings. AGW or not involved they are beautiful Toy Soldiers on their own. I wish I could do moulds and cast my own figures but never got even close to that part of the hobby. Too late at my age… better buy unpainted casts and paint them if I found the time!… Silly me!… I thought that once retired I would have lots and lots of free time… it is not so (you have been warned!). LOL

Toy Soldiers

Sometimes I tend to forget that there are brand new toy soldiers to buy… silly of course… but when I see an example in Facebook I get it and copy paste here for your daily dose. Enjoy

Paul Watson’s Military Band!

Paul uses thid pic sometimes to celebrate the entrance of new members in our FaceBook site (or Group)… yes… mytoysoldiersandme … 450 members from ’round the world. I am much busy nowadays and keeping the webpage alive everyday consumes my time so I do not post a lot in FaceBook… but other members do so regularly!

A great hobby!

Tony Dilley’s Cavalry

Sorry I forgot to include the mounted soldiers on last day post… here they are… and truly impressive too… sometimes I complain to my wife about the lack of market in ANDORRA concerning Toy Soldiers… probably knowing myself this is probably for the better!… lol

The rest of Dilley’s compulsory purchase…

Toy Soldiers BUY!: He could not resist adding them to the collection

You must understand us collectors!… he found those and could not resist buying them… that’s how it goes. For once John Lennon was right when he said the evident enough statement “life is what happens to you while you’re busy making other plans”… lol … it really works that way.
