John Jenkins Designs - 20th Anniversary Contests

John Jenkins Designs, a newer toy soldier company headquartered in Hong Kong, is celebrating its 20th anniversary this year. Besides releasing a limited series commemorating the 1842 Battle of Gandamak based on the famous Wollen painting, he is also running monthly caption contests and placing "golden tickets" in a few boxes of newer soldiers.

Here is what I got for winning a caption contest and receiving a golden ticket with a recent purchase.

I'm gobsmacked by John's generosity. In total, I received six Maratha cavalrymen and twenty foot figures, a mix of Bunker Hill marines and minutemen and Maratha infantry.

Wow what a good selection, and love the new limited edition series so far. I got a golden tick in the 10th year never traded it in liked the idea of having something so unusual and got another one with my latest delivery

The Falkland Islands

One of my favourite series by K&C, I received a few terrain pieces in the post to complete my little display of that tough fight in the South Atlantic.

A good grouping. I worked with a couple of chaps who served in that set too which now seems a hundred years ago to some people but still feels like no time at all to me. Good bless them all

Sharpe's Rifles

King & Country's 95th Rifles recently arrived in the post. They are quite nicely done and are an improvement on K&C's earlier 95th Rifles.

New Additions to my Collection

While I was deployed to Latvia over the last six months, I had the opportunity to pick up a few Baltic themed pieces from Riga and Tallinn.

I also took my mid-deployment leave in the UK and stopped in at The Armoury of St. James's and picked up some Nelson themed pieces.

I got home just in time for Christmas and was lucky to get several toy soldiers mostly John Jenkins American War of Independence and Scott Dummitt's 54mm Canadian Scottish Regiment Piper with Four Privates. I also received the new ITSC book reprint.
