King & Country

King & Country is one of the best-known and most-collected producers of toys soldiers and miniature figures in the world today. The all-metal, hand-painted, 1:30 scale figures (about 60mm tall) cover the broadest spectrum of history - from Ancient to Modern and many points in between. King & Country begin in Ancient Egypt before travelling on to the time of Christ and Imperial Rome, their miniature history series include The Crusades before journeying westwards to Europe and The English Civil War and later to the colourful spectacle of The Age of Napoleon. Moving even further west across the Atlantic King & Country depict the brave but doomed battle to defend The Alamo and the epic Indian Wars of the late 19th Century. In more modern times King & Country helps tell the story of The First World War and the battles and campaigns in both the Middle East and the Western Front. From the German invasion of Poland in September 1939 until the Fall of Berlin in May 1945 they tell the story in authentic, hand-made detail. As the real war raged across the globe King & Country also reproduces the troops, tanks and many other items that replicates the battles and campaigns fought in Europe, The Pacific, North Africa and Russia. On a lighter note, King & Country also produces several non-military \'civilian\' ranges that attract both male and female collectors. \'Streets of Old Hong Kong\' is an affectionate look-back at turn-of-the-19th & 20th Century Hong Kong with a huge range of traditionally dressed Chinese figures and attractive buildings of the period. \'World of Dickens\' and \'Streets of Old London\' feature characters and people drawn from the works of Charles Dickens and Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and his most famous creation, Sherlock Holmes.
