Reinforcements Have Arrived Pt 6.

 Or "How I started photographing a box of toy soldiers I got off Ebay and then just when I thought I'd finished, I found another bag with all the odds & sods I couldn't match up"

So here we are. Another installment in a  series that got a bit away from me.  Here we go...

To explain, as I've been going through the haul I kept finding figures that clearly didn't fit the unit I'd dropped them into. So I'd pull the aside and drop them into a separate bag with a vague plan to maybe  sort them properly a bit later. 

Tried that, quickly gave up. 

Have I mentioned that I have about ten bags with soldiers in minutely different shades of green?

Anyway, I got to this final bag of assorted bits and figured I really ought to document them too. 

It also gave me a chance to show you how much variation there can be in size, colour and quality, even when the figure is basically the same guy. 

I tried to play with this pic to emphasise how different the colours might be. Note also that some figures are veritable giants in comparison. 

 All clearly the same squaddie but moulded and remoulded by different firms. 

Spot the figure that was made by Airfix and which are the cheap, generic soldiers.   

 I still need to get the entire box-full out on my kitchen floor and display them en-masse. That's likely to take frigging hours so expect something at the weekend. 

That's All Folks.
