Hi Badger, try D.J.Parkins website, they do a couple of N.Ireland Brits, I think one is a kneeling Para!

Hi Badger,

It's "New Order Model Designs" and good luck with finding one, i've been on the hunt for their figures and weapon sets for years..

thank you, I saw one at a model show in Scotland about 4 years ago and didn't buy it, I think it was only sixteen pounds?, why didn't I buy it.complete madness. so now the search goes on. not just for that figure but for any 120mm/1.16th scale figure that is kneeling and suitable to convert to a british soldier serving in northern Ireland in the seventies./badger

I think many of us have been there Badger! In my case it was the S&T 120 mms at the Nationals in Telford in 2007-08, I didn't buy them because I thought I could pick them up any time, then suddenly they went OOP and were like gold dust. Have managed to buy/get in trade most of the ones I wanted since, but it's taken years. Good luck with your search - you'll probably find one when you've given up and are no longer looking. It happens like that sometimes.

Hi Badger,

I believe the catalogue number and description was: P001 British Paratrooper, N.I. Belfast..

If you acquire one can you upload a picture of the box art for my records as i am also looking for this figure?

Regards Ian

I would also have a word with Jackie from Foxwood Figures..

I believed they acquired two "modern" British Soldier figures from the Firing Line range and one is in the kneeling pose.

Not sure if they are from the 70-80's with SLR's or mid 80-90's with SA80 but it's worth a shot..
