Guy Rixon Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 Excellent! I'll have a few, in due course. That bobby on the right is none too swift. Somebody;s nicked his bike and he hasn't even noticed. The bike showed up yesterday, etched in a Branchlines kit for a PBV. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlie586 Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 They do look fantastic, hopefully they'll do more from earlier periods. Although, the policeman holding bike looks like he's doing a Tommy Cooper impression to me. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edwardian Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 (edited) If Modelu want to serve the Blue Diesel modeller, perhaps they should scan members of the Flying Squad bouncing the heads of suspects off the bonnets of Ford Granadas For modern image policemen, generally: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tc7JOp29mEc Edited November 10, 2018 by Edwardian 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edwardian Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 When the foeman bears his steel, they uncomfortable feel ... In this case it's the Nottinghamshire constabulary practising their "Tarantaras", while the Sergeant, from Hampshire, fears there is too great a stress on the risks that on him press, yet feels that perhaps it would be wise not to carp or criticise... Both 1890s. Thus I should think that these Modelu figures will be pretty well suitable for the 1890s through to the 1950s/60s. I should think that fire brigade uniforms style had similar longevity. Military and civilian dress would, of course, have changed many times over such a time span. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Regularity Posted November 10, 2018 RMweb Gold Share Posted November 10, 2018 (edited) Didn’t each constabulary have its own design of helmet? Or is that too close to “finescale police” for comfort? Edited November 10, 2018 by Regularity 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The constable below is from a now defunct wargaming range that depicts a constable in early WWII. He is a bit tall and needed his gas mask box removing from his back but otherwise is the same as in 1890s.

Edwardian Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 I think we may be seeing new releases from Andrew Stadden soon. Mr Stadden indicated in an email exchange last year that the was going over to 3D print masters and that new Edwardian/Victorian figures were on the way. Until I have not seen this reflected on the website. Perhaps not too long to wait now? Link 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold ChrisN Posted March 20, 2019 RMweb Gold Share Posted March 20, 2019 Just seen this today on the A C Stadden web site https://www.acstadden.co.uk/post/take-your-seats-please He says he has a 1860s coach compartment that he is working to, and that it seems quite small. I certainly think they were. Hopefully not too long now before the figures arrive. I get the impression he has been learning 3D CAD for a couple of years, and as a military sculpter there was some famous anniversary that kept him busy last year but he is now working on figures for railways again. 2 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm looking forward to these, although filling a train with figures is going to be quite expensive. 1 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edwardian Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 I have been keeping an eye on the blog, but it seems that Mr Stadden is in a protracted development phase. There might be a succession of Good Things once these developments result in product. 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jol Wilkinson Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 He, like many of the Small Suppliers, probably has to balance sales, production, packaging, dispatching, invoicing, etc. with promoting the range, designing and developing new models, etc. All we have to do is to buy and use them. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
