Great figures, Henry Martini!

And, you continue to choose Garden Wargaming's favourite historical period! HOORAY !!!

As you know, Michael, for a long time now we have thought about recreating the BATTLE OF TEL EL KEBIR using Playmobil figures and wagons.  However, it's beginning to look more and more like that you might actually beat us to it ... :)

So far, we seem to be just slightly further along than you ...  Click HERE !  But, you seem to be rapidly catching us ... :)

(We are secretly hoping that you pass us by, because we would really like to see Tel el Kebir done with Playmobil.)

Thanks again for sharing your wonderful Klickys!

All the best,
Richard (and the entire GW staff)

I knew a wargamer who when he was on holiday in Egypt collected some sand from the battlefield at Tel el Kebir just so when his group wargamed it they would have the real stuff!
