A couple of the shields look like the pressure to certain parts of the mold needs to be improved. Richard likes the cream color which shows the detail. He is now having to decide on what colors he wants to do. What color would you like?

Warhansa Update
Kent Sprecher informed me that he should have his shipment of WWII Elite German forces this coming week. Kent also said, “The Mars Napoleonic French Grenadiers are complete and I will try to get some in this month.”
I imagine the “swiss warriors”is referring to (Reisläufer) or swiss pikemen mercenary army more likely.

I am getting the Elite Germans in winter gear hopefully tomorrow as they are in the Tampa Bay area where I live. I believe the two red Indians (yellow is the most common color) were made in the US. Werner, Irwin or MPC are my top three guesses as to who made them.
As comfortable as Chintoys is in the 16th century they really should make some Ottoman Turks. Vienna, Malta. Lepanto, ‘just sayin’. Ken Thelen

That is quite interesting, looking at Juan Herrimada’s book he lists the company as Bruver no Bruber. Juan does not show any photos of the for mention figures on the two pages he has for Bruver. This information if you have samples could upend some early English figure history. Trojan did copies of the Marx 60mm Roy Rogers figures downsize.
