Yup, I just said on Frothers how people here had been looking for a good Her majesty (Gawd bless 'er) figure. I may well be getting one of the meself. Lovely stuff.  :love:

Grrr... Verdammten Englisch! Wo ist Kaiser Bill? Kaiser Franz Josef? Erzherzog und Thronfolger Franz Ferdinand?

Seriously, that looks great.

The chap at the bottom of this pic could be used for Franz Josef in his later years. I've had my eye on him for a while, but I don't really want him in a cuirass, and I'm not altogether sure about that hat either. Those things have been putting me off buying him.



We definitely need more Victorian/Edwardian/Belle Epoque/etc. 'Higher Ups' in non-martial poses. Kaiser Bill and FF would be top of my list (but that's because I want them for a picture for my club!  :) ).

Perfect for all the Torchwood/VSF players.

It's such a requested figure, good to see someone has jumped in there.

A nice model of the Queen (Gawd bless her) indeed.

Say Plynkes, where did those figures you're showcasing come from? The scotsman with two revolvers as well as the Elder Franz Josef figure are of keen interest to me :D

If I maybe so bold as to answer on Poly's behalf. They are Crusader miniatures from their Crusader collections.

Gorgeous model. Much more useful than the Queen (Gawd bless her) toting around a side-by-side.

On this one she's got it sawed off and concealed under her skirt. Her right hand is holding the barrels so's it won't fall over.

Tradition of London (and Scandinavia) has a Kaiser figure in full uniform and mounted. Nice figure, too.  It is supposed to be 30 mm, but I think it could fit in the modern lines of figures.

Thinking again:
Queen Victoria actually was very short.
Will be Eureka's miniature too tall? compared to the other minis.

Anyhow is a very nice figure.
