Anybody make a WWI British infantryman (pith helmet) Palestine campaign ?

[John Robinson]

Terry Warren of Foxwood Figures should be releasing such a figure later this year.

The era might be off (20's, 30's) but I'm pretty sure Art Girona did a 54mm Highlander in overseas (middle east/far east) khaki and pith helmet. I wonder if you could use this as a basis for a conversion.

Steve Warrilow of The Fusilier did one or two, some of which turn up on eBay from time to time. If you want something different you could try this:-

Tradition of London have an average figure in their range, Scale Link offer heads with Pith Helmets (http://www.scalelink.co.uk/acatalog/Heads_and_Arms2.html) which you then match to appropriate figures in full kit, light kit, cavalry breecehes etc.

Alternatively you wait for the Foxwood Figures 200mm WW1 Tommy with Pith Helmet due out in the summer.

Good luck,

Mike

Hello John,
As Mike has mentioned, we are launching a 200mm, full figure, later this year with Pith helmet (courtesy of Mike!) as well as a Gallopilli figure in the same scale. If you email me with your personal email at [email protected] we will let you know how things progress.

Would like to see a figure with pith helmet as my Granfather served in that campaign.
