Bigger soldiers for wargaming

  1. For those who like wargaming in 54mm get these from ALLTHEKINGSMEN .I like them although the firing bloke is not right the way he holds his weapon


    These are from my collection .They are SAS 30mm


    The best 54mm plastic wargaming were airfix.This is in metal though and I painted it up





    Authenticast are perfect 54mm wargaming material in the precise Britain's scale
