Hello everyone.I have already posted this question in General Modeling,but does anyone know how i can get my hands on some 1:35 kits depicting ANZACS(Australian and NewZealand Army Corps.) soldiers?I have seen some in 1:72 etc. but absolutely zilch in 1:35 scale.Are there some kits that even resemble the soldiers from the Great War that could be converted to look like the ANZAC soldiers?
Any help would be grateful!!Cheers,Shay

Hi folks,.
john Larsen toys ltd,.... for whom Ive sculpted a series of ANZAC figures in 54mm, some 15 in total.
Be it they are toy soldiers and metal, they can be purchased as kit sets. myself Im pleased the casting of the detail on each fig. all are in action poses and arms and heads etc are interchangable... I have taken a couple of them a stage further my self and was more than suprised at the result.
I will hunt out the Larsen web page to-day and post it up......as soon as possible

Hi Phil ,
I saw your figures you made at Armsmodelit http://www.armsmodelit.com.au/ArmsMacCastings.htm they are really good looking miniatures & full of character . I really like Dingo Harris Very very cool . Phils other figures must be pretty good too I reckon Jen

Hello Jenny...
If you go into my photo gallery you will see the light horseman due out next,
plus some of the other Australian figures i've done....

I do appreciate your kind words, l like to have them looking like the guy next door, or the bloke you' ve just had a beer with, not just a military uniform....

stay cool... Phil

G'day all,
Thanks for the extra tips Phil,your figures are awesome. If you can post the webpage form Larsen,that would be great.And Jenny(you little beauty..hehe) i emailed David Hay at Firestorm and did not get a reply at all,that was over a week ago.Oh well you Aussies are all a little behind anyway..(SORRY,couldn't help myself possums!!im a naughty little kiwi..hehehe)
But seriously It is nice to see that our 'diggers' are also being represented in some shape and form in the model world;i don't know why other companies have not put some diggers on the market,it would be a great little seller,fair dinkum!!
All the best,Shay
