W Britain Collection
Back in 1996, W. Britains revolutionized the toy soldier business when under the guidance of Richard Walker and Ken Osen they issued some of the first mass produced matte finished toy soldiers to the world. Taking toy soldiers from the realms of traditional glossy finished figures in a toy like style to the current standard, matte finished historical miniatures that collectors have come to except. The first figures issued were of the American Civil War and by today’s standard’s they look crude in comparison. Since these first issues in 1996 the toy soldier has evolved into a true historical miniature and the W Britain company has led the way by issuing the finest American Civil War soldiers and the most complete range, including infantry, cavalry, artillery and personalities on the market today.
