120mm Crimean Highlander

[chailey]

Hi all,
I'm quite sure most of you will remember the superb Crimean War Sutherland Highland Colour Sgt. that Bill Horan created many years ago, (pipe in one hand, rifle in crook of other arm) and featured in Military Modelling.
Somewhere in the deep recesses of my memory I'm sure I once saw a 120mm version of the same figure, but I have no idea who produced it!
Question is, does anyone else remember it and even better, is it still available anywhere?
Yours in hope, Steve

I think it might have been Bonapartes but it's not on their website so either my memory's wrong or it's out of production.

Jeff Shui brought one out earlier this year in 75mm based on a Bill Horan figure. Would this be the one your thinking of? I too wish it was still available in 120mm.
Is it this one,

It was Bonaparte's isn't it available anymore?

I can't find it on their website. They have reissued some of their older kits from time to time so maybe this might reappear.

There was a 120mm Roll Call Scots Fusilier Guards...not a Highlander but in the same pose with rifle cradled and pipe in hand. Scroll down here to see a picture: http://www.planetfigure.com/threads/bench-clearance.62185/

The one you are on about was the suberb Fort Royal 120mm figure sculpted by Dave Gerett.Unfortunately no longer available.

Affirmative, Fort Royal, Dave did a great job with that.

Hi all, the Jeff Shui figure is the right pose, but I think this one was released fairly recently, the one I remember was a number of years ago, so was most likely one of Fort Royals kits, should by chance anyone have one in their 'grey army' stash I'd be very interested!
kind regards, Steve
