I always loved these, in fact they’re undoubtedly my favourite Christmas present ever received. Put somewhere too safe, one would always be missing. Now they’ve pride of place on the mantlepiece. The detail in the Starry Plough flag is incredible. I used to love being taken to model shops where alongside the endless trains and cars, you’d always find the British regiments of the Crimean war or the 6th Airborne Division complete with a miniature Pegasus Bridge, but never see Irish history in miniature and painted form!
Anyone have anything similar? I often wonder just what would have been produced in 1966 for example. Got anything to share?
Sick with jealousy.
Sure paint your own!
Shows what changes in a few years. I’ve some great models my dad painted as a kid, American Civil War types, but there’s no way me or any of my mates could manage today. If it’s not on an Xbox….
Though I’d rather play Xbox tbh.
