G is for Guards - 60mm Figures

There were three 60mm sets of guards produced in the classic factory-painted, soft-ethylene, 1950's toy soldier style that I can think of, the two below and a set of non-musical Cherilea figures one of which appeared in the En Garde post the other day.

The other Cherilea set were musicians and I only have the three at the moment, they will re-appear over the next few days in more of these thematic posts.

The other set was by Crescent, these came courtesy of Mike Melnyk (who has helped with a lot of these guards/ceremonials) and arrived about a year after I took all the other photographs, so they are not in any of the other posts (I think I've queued-up 16), so the standing firer wasn't in that post the other day, and the officer was missing from 'his'. There were 3 other poses and when I've tracked them all down we'll have another look at them. They have more than a hint of the Charbens sculptor about them and are very different from the 54mm set by Crescent.
