Blue Box British

British were done as most other figures by Blue box in hard and soft plastic also painted and unpainted. The figures were sold in window boxes and bags. The unpainted figures show more detailed than painted as the painted figures because the paint hides the detail.

  AS like other figures made by Blue Box for World War 2 and Post war, the set has six figures, They match perfectly with the Germans in scale more 48mm to 52mm in scale

  I only own a few of the figures in the painted version. I do not have any of the accessories painted. The figures often came with an 18 pounder cannon, Dingo car and a rare British howitzer that I have and will show once I find it

    They look decent. I’d fix those rifles to look more like Enfields. Now they sort of look like shrunken FN FALs. I think the Japs are a bit better. Can’t wait to see the Germans! Keep it coming

    Yes I agree , the British with only exception of those two with rare (FAL ) are great for WW2 as they carry WW2 weapons and later Mk III Helmet .Still as you say I did cut/convert those modern in most of my figures ,I had only kept few original in each set to save the collection. The unpainted original are the best to save detail. The paint was very bad and cover the most/well done and fair tiny detail .Too bad they were smaller in scale versus most 1:32, but they match perfect next to CTS armor
