Do you know where these figures are?

I am going out on a limb here, but it may bring dividends...

A few years ago, I sold a massive 15mm Renaissance collection to Neil Fawcett, former owner of the now-defunct Spartan Games.

I would really like to trace this collection and buy it back, so if anyone can provide and possible leads to where it ended up, I'd be really grateful. If I actually got it back, I'd be happy to pay a finder's fee or make a donation to a charity of the finder's choice.

If you think you know where it is, please get in touch, or ask the current owner to reach out to me please.

Thanks

Memory Lane Part 16A: A Cultural Mini Detour To The 80s

Carved in 1890 from wood and wax, this sculpture in the collection of Sheffield's Weston Park Museum depicts a 21 match bout between 12th century Samurai, Kawazu Saburo and Matano Goro. Matano was beaten and obviously was left humiliated. Like all good losers, he then had his opponent assassinated. *takes notes* Now this is not only a wonderful work in wax and wood - stunningly lifelike - but when I sent a pic of it to my old friend Professor Darren Ashmore over at Akita University a while back, he reminded me of spending time in the museum when we were but level 2 Frothers in the 80s. We would often sit in galleries, and talk games, absorbing the culture. As Darren said, one particular snowy afternoon stands out in our memories. Secondly, in the grounds I came across the site where once stood a 3-sided stone-built park shelter, now sadly replaced with this: Back in 1987 over the weekend of the Triples show, whilst all my club mates slept in hotel beds, I w...

Overindulgence? Is it Possible? I Fear It May Be...

It's a strange morning for me. Firstly, as a long time fan of M.A.S.H, I am saddened to hear of the passing of Loretta Swit. If you have never heard her interviewed, she was witty, interesting and very gracious, speaking fondly and highly of her fellow cast members. I think that only Alan Alda & Jamie Farr remain now... Ah me, but I feel old. But, what has really hit me is a feeling I cannot shake that I may have reached a sort of miniature-amassing 'critical mass' situation, bordering on burn out. I collect large armies as you know, and I always have. Yesterday I was unpacking 1700+ 15mm Mike's Models Crusades figures. They are gorgeous little models, being much larger than the norm, along the lines of Tin Soldier. It took me 2 and a half hours, standing in a stooped position, carefully unwrapping, rebending and repairing as I went. About two box files into the process, I was filled with a sense of absolute disinterest in wargaming, with such a ferocity rthat it ca...

A Quick Note On The Series

 Hi ho, I just thought that I'd let you all know that will certainly be returning to the 'Life Story' soon. I'm just looking at where to go next. I am trying to weave it in with the stories in my 2012 book as well as covering stuff I was not mentally ready to relate back then. It got pretty dark in the basement in the late 80s for me. In the meantime, pop over to Amazon or your local bookshop and you can get 360 pages of my story, packed to the gills with actual gaming memories of the 1980s and a few in the 90s. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Real-Lifes-Bu-Tale-Dragons-ebook/dp/B007WTPQBK/ref=sr_1_1?crid=1HUQXSPD5GC4P&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.NqKLNDjfGbpBrlKN-ZLlsspHQn8yigVEPoYluBkm8sb8fW_AYGceZAPp3jrWP-WE2Ll4FhHtmKAnlBSNRfywluQyHDXTy-sZMDyDjHaPPCK6T3DGYWRG9ujY44eQ9v43D2yoIIYF3d6kQYK2vxDVmqKxFzbYTCKrqE7nlPNeYOu5SHarv69riPFLR8QeN6ah0uldn1iHBsAV7Vtp5FBDpb9lLt-Y5nTjCFrhNQ8IpIs.5yyCyd0iuHsIqTEQrQJYrPDJ5nF5WtYJIW6ysIbbkK4&dib_tag=se&keywords=Real+LIfe%27s+A+Bu**er&qid=1756...
