Very cool.
"Peace" is that brief, glorious moment in history when everybody stands around reloading.

We don't trade directly at shows but may have a stockist there so can probably arrange for orders to be collected there.

The 'flash motor' should be ready for release well before then barring any casting calamities.

Can I point out that they can not be Wessex suppliers from 1979 they would have been Royal Regiiment of Fusiliers then.
Minor point, but I do love them.

Er... I think the point was it is a fictional regiment. There was no such regiment as the Royal Wessex Fusiliers. Probably a tip of the hat to the old series Spearhead about the equally fictional Royal Wessex Rangers.

Botou os ingleses na roda
3 a 0 no Liverpool
Ficou marcado na história
E no Rio não tem outro igual
Só o Flamengo é campeão mundial
E agora seu povo
Pede o mundo de novo

Spot on in terms of the reference, Carlos! 

Our BAOR versions will be the Rangers.

Twas a golden age. The Sandbaggers, Warship, Spearhead. Of course whilst the latter two were fun, The Sandbaggers was in a league of its own, fucking brillant.
