Those asiduous in this webpage will recognise a recurrent theme… a lot of wargamers and modelers actually enjoy doing Nile Gunboats! Even yours truly indulged in scratchbuilding a tiny one in 25mm for my MINIFIGS (LOL) I must look in the vault to see if I found a pic… (a sorry example compared with those in 54mm).
Enjoy!

Those old boxes have a charm of it’s own… unique maybe not… they were mass produced… but those who kept them in a lovely state are my own kind!
Enjoy for what it is.

I am currently in the middle of upgrading my units to 12 Infantry to play test AGW in my Table (it was longer than I thought to “clean up” the mess of my office)… Will probably confront my French Foreign Legion DORSET against British India Kakhi REPLICA… quite if the FASHODA incident had happened in Lybia somehow I do not have the heart (and time and money) to build a Prussian Army and “go to Dorking”… if you know what I mean… Now all depends on DORSET and REPLICA whom has to provide the missing minis to get those units to 12 Infantry per unit!.

They do not come better than this in matt finish. Toy Soldiers bordering or tiptoeing the thin line between them and Military Modeling.
Awfully good if you ask me. Enjoy

Rather extra good painting job (see the Regimental Colour and the Drum… and the careful grey hair on the mounted officer’s moustache… really a breat of fresh air for us in the hobby…), welcome to this webpage Timmothy!… hope we see soon enough more examples of his units. Enjoy

Somehow a monotonous subject, but as the Imperial Guard Grenadiers the most popular ever with collectors and wargamers alike. You can not buldt a 54mm toy soldier collection eluding those I guess… neither your wargaming Napoleonic French Army will do without the other… that’s how it is and would be. Enjoy

I am a Guards fan since young (I was born very young as Groucho Marx used to say)… somehow the pic seems to have catch the Guards with quite a slopiness rifles stance angle if you know what I mean… if they were in my collection some bending and regluing of arms would have been in order. But you need all sorts you know… Very nice pic. Enjoy.

Of course they look good! have not seen what can be done in 28mm? if these are 40mm aprox Toy Soldiers it is like painting a wall! (and I know recently done some painting in 54mm scale and there are lots of surfaces to be done!
Enjoy.

Always have had a soft spot for lancers… do not ask me why… I do not know for sure… maybe the fluttering pennants?
The pis is part of a much larger collection… see the Highlander Pipers on the extreme right.. And the “marks” on the shelve on the left indicate the old presence of foot toy soldiers… I think I have already posted other pics from the collector but today I have no time to check… Stefano Allorini! (have checked). Enjoy
