Great fun topic! Cool...a simple cleaver idea is to simply add in extra shelves between the existing shelves. You can easily get cut glass shelves and drill in some new holes and set up additional shelving. Almost all of the wood cabinets are made for displaying plates and large Royal Doulton figures so lots of room to add in an extra shelf.

Notice how "opponents "soon became integral to British military dominance in empire building. Scots, Welsh,Irish, sikh,gurkha,moiri. Too name but a few.

I have about 30 dime store figures. I stopped buying them. All of them are loosely based on WW1 Doughboy American soldiers. They represent a certain era of miniature solders. My true interest is Britains Ldt, Queens Guard figures, found at flea markets or Antique Malls. Usual price for a single Britians figure (in somewhat Ok condition) sells about $10.oo each. These figures are difficult to find, one piece at a time, over some 25 years. What amazes me is the plastic Britains that were very abundantly available in the hobby stores throughout the 1970s, are non existent! Thank you for your Channel!

Hi Scott, is there a dealer who buys 12in and 54m toy soldier collectibles in Canada? Thank you
@scottssoldiers23753 ай бұрын
In Canada there are a number of individuals and 'dealers' who buy and re-sell. But in Canada, you're best way to signal what you wish to sell is likely through the OMSS Facebook page posting photos. This could get you the widest possible audience without having to do international selling. There are other venues such as auction houses, eBay but you have to be prepared to pay admin fees, handle shipping, etc etc. There are pros & cons to each pathway. Check out my Ep 58 Graveyard Chat, or view some of the OMSS' KZbin videos for more general info. As to a specific dealer (in Canada) those are for the most part in Ontario / Quebec region and are retailers who you would have to contact directly (they are listed on this site - omss.blog - currently under construction which you can view ). There is obviously a demand for 12in (1/6th) and 54mm but as always it depends on desirability / condition/ price / completeness, etc. Good luck!

I have had at least two of them. They were all "played to pieces". The big thing at 4:25 still lies around somewhere and could shoot if I could reassemble the affutage (?). The plastic shells are mostly lost, we used iron balls that had some impact on the target. The source of the iron balls are best not mentioned. And they are also gone except a few - they tended to fracture.

Hi Scott, In the first instance , if EVER you are in the UK for whatever reason, there will always be a welcome here in Shropshire and if you need to, you are welcome to stay over, but I warn you all the chat will be on soldiers!! I will endeavour to find out how to post pictures on this web site. Best Chris

These old figures are really strange, you can feel a flavour of antiqueness when you look at them.

Thank you for introducing several volumes that I have overlooked. I have a small collection based on the British, Dominion and Indian armies of July 1914. Many are figures from my childhood. Identifying and reading about them has been a delightful sub- hobby giving me many hours of enjoyment. This would have been impossible without the works of Opie and others. In many ways, the hobby allows one to relive the excitement of receiving toy soldiers as presents. That magic feeling which still lingers of opening a large box containing the entire Guard Mounting set by W.M. Britain is still vivid and is refreshed by reference amd research. Once again, thank you.

Personality figures have always been the most difficult, especially contemporary figures as we all know what they "should look like" vs what is put out by the various sometimes overpriced newer manufactures!
