2011 William Britain Soldiers

New Britains are coming!

W. Britain has announced the release of lots of new toy soldiers in 2011! There are going to be new additions to the Zulu War Collection, The American Civil War Collection, The War Along the Nile Collection, The Archive Collection, Tactile Scenes, and even the Ceremonial Collection.

Lots are arriving this month including. 

Confederate General A.P. Hill (Britains product number 31083) staring into the distance with a full beard, his hat in one hand and his smoking pipe in the other.




















Confederate General P.G.T. Beauregard (31080) surveying his surroundings with sword in hand.




















Confederate General Albert Sydney Johnston (31081) plots his next move with binoculars in hand.




















U.S. Colored Troops Marching #1 (31086) marches into battle loaded down with gear and looking ready for anything.

I am especially excited about this last one! This is the first African American toy soldier I've seen and an excellent representation of history. Thanks W. Britain!
