Splendid work, as usual!

I just wish Her Majesty [Gawd bless'er!] was available without the shotgun.

It's probably possible for those with talent to convert her .... sadly that group doesn't include me  :(

Eureka do a Queen Victoria figure - in Britain available through Fighting 15s. It's kind of small and dumpy - but she was, wasn't she ?

Yeah, but she's in "Anglo-African" attire. Not an ideal figure for most needs.

Ahh Her Majesty, Queen Victoria (Gaud Bless 'Er) Empress of India, attended by her maid Miss Twicenightly and companion Miss Fanny Fitznizentight :lol:
Nice figures. I removed the shotgun. It was not too difficult and does in my opinion improve the look of the figure :)

IMO, the Foundry figure is much more lifelike than the Eureka, plus as Chairface says, is more suitable for use in GB.

I think I will wait in anticipation of a new figure being made [massive hint!], rather than risk ruining what is still a very good figure  :)
