That’s the beauty of Hollywood style Dr Daly, historical accuracy is immaterial, it’s all about showbiz kid 👍🏻

Great stuff - that is a proper horde of Boxers, I recognise a fair few of the figures from different ranges.

Do you have other western detachments, or are the Yankees on their own?

In the interest of accuracy, I'm not a Dr.  D and R are just my first and middle initials.    :)

Your work is impressive in both execution and quantity, wish I could equal it!

Oh yes there is lots more in the pipeline, including Japanese, Russian, Austrian and of course British. This is about half of the generic Boxers, with another 120 to paint.

Excellent, looking forward to seeing these. I didn’t know the Austrian’s where involved - will have to do some research there

Most of the Boxers are from our friends at North Star, I always wanted to game this period but until this range came on the market, I wasn’t tempted.

Great Movie, damn those US forces look great (as do the Chinese). I love the look of the US uniforms during this time period.
