These came winging their way to SSW Towers back a the start of November, a nice handful of rack-toy Army Men and some AFV's, against the aim of one day having one of everything (an impossible task but noble aim, I feel!) they will all go to the To Be Sorted (TBS) zone for a future sorting session which will be of epic proportions and probably need several tables at once! A few more interesting bits include an MPC ACW figure for whom I will need to find a musket, a cake-decoration dove with a icing-pick that could kill a Russian revolutionary, and Hilco knight on the upper row, with a lead figure from one of the coronation coaches (Charbens? We looked at them here briefly) and a Kinder 'Frozen' figurine, to whom's set the transparent blue horse belongs - which we either saw the other day, or will see soon?
But next to the old lead guardsman, is a more generic fellow in white trousers (pass for a Dane or some South American mob?) who I suspect is a doll's house toy soldier, could be die-cast, but is probably pewter, I'm not going to find out by digging! Many thanks as always to Peter Evans, for this lot.
So Trotsky was killed by a cake decoration!
ReplyDeletePossibly Andy, possibly! Mr Cornwall (Hugh - no less!) never elaborated!
