Britains Saracen Knights

Some of my favorite toys are my toy soldier sets with plastics dominating a large portion of my collection. Featured here are plastic recasts of the Britains Saracen Knights, also billed as Storm Knights. These 54 mm figures come with removable weapons and bases. The originals are quite rare, with mint samples reaching $70 to $100. Too bad mine are only repros, bought from a department store toy section for around $3 a bag. I still enjoy fiddling around with them immensely, with some figures receiving paint jobs and being basis for conversions. I'm currently in the process of displaying these in my hobby room and I thought I'd take a few snaps. The box art shown above is not mine though. I picked it up on the net some time ago. The pictures below can be clicked for bigger versions.

Migrating to Facebook

After a tragedy in the family and a slow return to my hobbies, I've realized that I've been posting more on Facebook. It's easier, faster and the audience response is faster. So, posting here might be spasmodic at best for the time being. Bear with me as I decide what to do with my blogs, thanks!

Custom ARAH Duke

Here's another repainted Duke with some new ammo packs made in putty. This is a custom painted 1993 Battle Corps Battle Commander Duke. One of my early experiments with epoxy putty. I have another version of this figure on the workbench so expect to see it soon here too.
