Military Bands have always been a very collectable category as far as I know… Toy Soldiers need music to march on!
Bands standing instead of marching, or even seated are a special variant of the subject. See three examples of a serious collector.
Enjoy!

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!

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!

I am very partial to REPLICA’s output… in this case a bunch of ACW recast Britain’s like toy soldiers…
They are hard to get!… meaning patience is the main asset when ordering from REPLICA!… but the results are worth the wait.
Wish Andrew luck with them.
Enjoy

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!

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!

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!

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!

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!.

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
