A Blast from the Past !


Myself and my dear wife called in at the local  'Antiques and Collectors Fair' last weekend and I purchased some old 54mm lead hollow cast Britains figures for £1 each - a good deal I think !. Will repaint them (real collectors will be screaming at this sacrilege !) and then they will join the ranks of my 'Funny Little Armies' . More pictures to follow.

  1. Nothing like the real thing. Accept no substitutions, well, except, Castings sells molds of old style Britain's Guards.
