Modern Scottish British army figures (1960 - to present)

[jak3bwrhr]

Hi,

I'm wondering if anybody can help? I am looking for a 90/100mm metal figure of either a Black Watch or RHF jock in Northern Ireland. This figure is most probably long out of production - but if anybody has one they don't want or knows of one for sale I would be delighted to purchase it off them.

I'm also looking for information about manufacturers of any British Army figures in 75 - 120mm (inc equipment) - especially Black Watch or RMP figures.

Many thanks

Quite a problem to solve. Most modern British army figures are in resin and are 120mm. Try Imperial Gallery for modern British. For a Scot in Northern Ireland you could try Firing Line as they have soldiers with internal security uniforms, these are in 120 again but offer a choice of heads. They also do a NI figure in 54 which can provide Glengarry (RHF) or Tam o Shanter (BW) heads. Cant think of many modern figures of that size in white metal.
Both companies have websites so should not be so hard to find. If you need any other help just let me know

Hi Don,

Have most of the figures from both Imperial Gallery and Firing Line (just have to put find the time to put them together!!!). And am a very much looking forward to TLB continuing to release the ranges of figures they have as moulds, as well as the wonderful figures that Maurice Corry is producing again.

I'm looking for the metal figure as it was based on a photo of my former PL SGT, who is retiring shortly and would loved to be able to present it to him as a gift. However, i might be able to pull something together if i could just find a manufacturer of 90mm weapons (my scratch building skills are no way good enough to even attempt that).

Kind regards,

James
