King & Country ‘Down Under’


John O’Brien gives an insight into King & Country’s recent trip to Australia and the new Australian themed figures the company is about to release

There has been a rumor for some time that King and Country was planning to expand its World War One range of miniatures to include some Australian Forces. The debate going around was whether it would be Gallipoli, the abortive invasion of Turkey in 1915, the Western Front or the Middle East Desert Campaign, any of which would be a battlefield worthy of coverage for us collectors.

In late July, Andy Neilson, Co-Founder of K&C along with Helen Mok Sargent, K&C’s Managing Director, unveiled the new range on their promotional tour to the Eastern States of Australia. The good news is that the famous Light Horse Charge at Beersheba in Palestine on October 31, 1917 is the chosen subject matter, and the first batch of figures (due to be available later this year) will be seven Light Horsemen of the 4th Light Horse Brigade.
