P is for Previously Seen on the Internet . . . II - Ancients and Medievals

Continuing with my cheap Lazy Posts, and a quick look at a few figures depicting warriors of the earlier eras.

Café Storm; Café Storm Viking; Cane Toy Soldiers; Cane Viking; Cherilea Toy Soldiers; Cherilea Viking; Co-Ma Viking; Coma Toy Soldiers; Egyptian Toy Soldiers; Knights In Armour; Lone Star; Lone Star Knights; Lone Star Medievals; Marx Toy Soldiers; Marx Viking; Medieval Knights; Small Scale World; smallscaleworld.blogspot.com; Tatra Egyptian; Tatra Plastic Toys; Tatra Plastics; Tatra Toy Soldiers; Timpo Toys; Timpo Viking; Viking Figures; Viking Toys;
Starting in pre-Ptolemaic anciet Egypt, Tatra - the brown one is dark bronze and marked 'Made In England' as is the silver one below him, the rest only have the 'EGYPTIAN' name-plate mark on the chamfered edge.

Coming forwards 3000-odd years nearer the present-day and we find the Vikings! Sorting to move to storage temporarily (I hope!) I grabbed one of each for a comparison; they go better together for being a barbarian horde!

Another 4/500-years finds us in the medieval period with Lone Star - odd plastic colours, from the left; metallic green plastic (and paint), a pinkish-taupe, a putty-grey, a dove-grey and a white plastic figure.

I've also been posting a few links of similar ilk/subject matter about the place, here are two on the ancient/medieval theme;

    Your little viking group has a Little Belgian Celt amongst them called Ambuvarex.
    He is one of the marvellous figures of the Café Storme Belgian history collection.
    You can check them out at mokarex.fr.

    Kind regard,

    Bernard
