Australian Infantry


The figures are a mix of old 1/76 scale "Matchbox Anzac Infantry" and "Airfix Australian Infantry".

    1. Thanks Geordie. By the way, I just saw on your blog you were asking about sports figures. I know Caesar had some footballers and basketball players in 1/72 scale to coincide with the Olympics in China. They might be of some use. I have the footballers and they're not too bad. There's a guy in Taiwan who sells them, Bryan from Always Model. I don't kmow if he still stocks them but you should be able to find his details with a quick search on Google (if not let me know, I have his email)

    1. Hi Lou, took at look at your site and added it to the links section. You have some really nice Napoleonic era 1/72 stuff there.

    1. Thanks Ray. Me too, back in those days I used to game with them unpainted - just as well really as we used to use bricks as artillery :-)
