  • London Toy Soldier Show December 2nd, 2023. After an absence of several years I made it back and enjoyed every moment. Lots of great figures, a chance to catch up with fellow BMSS members including James Opie. I even managed to pick up a few sets along the way. Yes, my recommendation is to go and see for yourself, particularly if you collect figures from UK makers. It's a casual and fun experience that everyone should have on their bucket list. This time it was highlighted by spending part of the evening hosted by James Opie and his incredible collection.

    Thanks for posting this review. It looks like it was a fascinating show and I hope to make it one day. I'm glad to see that our shared hobby of collecting miniature and Toy Soldiers is alive and well.

    I enjoyed your excellent review of the show, unfortunately I could not get to the December one, I went last year to the Spring one. James Opie is excellent at identifying toy soldiers even ones that are difficult to understand who manufactured them. Hopefully I will get to one of the shows in 2024. I collect plastic too and the Plastic Warrior show in May next year in Richmond is also a good one to visit. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you.

    Hi Scott,
    Thank you for creating this wonderful video. For many it is like a once in a lifetime trip. In addition to seeing all in one place the best England has to offer in the world of toy soldiers, you also got to meet some of the leading minds in this great pastime.
    I also appreciated how you listed the different manufactures, and some of the items to be aware of when attending the show, including what to also see while in London. Finally I was pleased to see pictures of castings that were for sale and figures of different sizes. It is great to know that there was also something at the London show for those who do their own figure painting.
    Thank you so much for sharing this with us.

    Very pleasant visit, thank you for sharing. I am in London visiting my son in a few days (travelling from my home in the south of France) and your video reminded me of St James' Armoury, a place I have not visited for decades. I will certainly be popping in. Merci et bon fin annee'

    I love your videos, I would love to get to the London show some day but I haven't even been able to get to the one in Canada yet ;). I am over joyed that Replica Toy Soldiers has done a kit of the Royal Canadian Rifle Regiment and I just had to order a box. What an odd duck unit to get out there :D ! Keep up the great work and I'll keep watching! Merry Christmas!

    What a great video to watch on Christmas Day right after the King's Message. Sad to hear the rail strikes are still on.
