Hi, well when I first found him I thought it was a little bit of junk, but after a bit of a clean up, he is Lead, and looks like maybe a Roman warrior, don't know.
His Elephant was not far away, its just something interesting.

I don't know if they are a pair looking at the condition,but a very nice find either way :Y:
 
Thank Guys,

What I want to know is.... Why was my post changed ? Was I rude to someone ?
Are the Moderators on this forum also our teachers ?
I said the lead figure looked like Jesus before a cleanup....am I not allowed to say Jesus ?
I said the elephant was junk...is that unacceptable.

I am 70 years old I do not need to have my mails "Corrected". If I have done something wrong then tell me, like a man.
If thats the way it is then tell me, and if it is, then Im outa here.

I for one am sorry that you have been insulted :| I had my whole post removed with no explanation last week :rolleyes:

"Good luck" for the future,and for the record I took absolutely no offence to your remark about Jesus :Y:

Oh Wow, thank you John, that's fantastic.

Cheers....Thomas

My Pleasure Thomas, glad I could help, I have found about 4 or 5 toy soldiers in the past and they are always a good sign of family life where there might be other things to find,

Keep up the good work, and thanks for posting them.

John.

That is probably the reason why they are here,to hear their own voice :rolleyes:

Just give them some oil to stop the squeak and move on,if only it was that easy 8)

The lead toy soldier appears to me to be standing with a Norman kite shield held close to his body and his free hand is holding an axe.

Yep the medieval times were very dark period that lasted for 1000 years, In the past few years they have been searching another area because they now think that the battle of Hastings happened a couple of miles away from where they thought,,
 
Nice find Thomas, good to see your out there swinging at 70 mate. Also good to see your not frightened of backing yourself in ;) . this site is sometimes a little like detecting mate, ya gotta put up with the pain to get the gain, so persevere my friend. SS.
 
Thank you all for the replies. I have not been able to get out much, I have a few things I may put up. Its the weather....absolutely atrocious in my neck of the woods. I went out the other day between storms but the water been blown back off the oval sent me scurrying back to the warm lounge.
