Hello Chaps, I've seen the 'Plastic Soldier Review' which is really good, is there anything on the same lines for lead soldiers? My interest is only really upto 54 mm Many thanks in advance
hello Soren William Britains http://www.wbritain.com/home.cfm still do a good range of metal figures (not lead now) and have a collectors club which you get a free figure each year. John Tunstill's World of Model Soldiers, lead toy model soldiers figures britains wargames postcards prints military militaria medals dorsetsoldiers.com British Model Soldier Society Links - Manufacturers and Retailers however if you can get a copy of they advertise many companys that produce all types of figures plastic/white metal/lead plus numerous reviews from the advertised companies. if you cant get hold of it over there,I will get next months copy and post any relevant info on here for you.
thank you, I remember a John Tunstill's near the IWN London, is it the same place, he used have some great ww2 & WW1 helmets in there

I used to paint for John Tunstill back in the 70's. I painted 10's of 1000's of 25mm figures (I remember French Imperial Guard full Bands were popular). After painting and converting my own Airfix Napoleonic Armies doing these Minifigs on a production line basis was a dead easy. I ended up doing work for him under 2 identities because he later replied to one of my adds in Military Modeller and he started buying the same standard of painting for 50% more than I was getting in my original incarnation!
