Just Bought! Figure ID

[Ferris]

Hi All,

Found this little gem in a mixed lot of metal figures.

It’s a german feldgendarme in motorcycle coat with MP40. Looks a lot like a Roger Saunders/Hornet sculpt but I don’t recall this from the range...perhaps it’s something else?

Thanks for any help!

Cheers,
Adrian

Hi Adrian,

It looks like Hornet No. GH20.
Have a look at Mirofsoft's site of old catalogues:-
https://www.mirofsoft.com/nostalgia-old-catalog-pdf/
Scroll down the page to 'Wolf/Hornet Catalog'.
You'll find it on page 3.

Cheers,
Andrew

That was quick Andrew! Thanks a lot.

I actually tried Mirofsoft’s site, but only looked at H from Hornet, not at W... Should have thought about Wolf.

Roger Saunders it is, great!

Cheers,
Adrian

Indeed Nap. This kind of question demonstrates the value of a forum over the hodge podge of individuals’ facebook pages.
