Hi All,

The first two sets issued by Airfix were the Guards Band and Colour Party. I realise that these are no longer avaliable but does anyone know any manufacturer that does the same type of figures?

Atlantic used to do Italian Carabinieri marching band but that was back in the 1970's.These are also long gone OOP.

I would love to have a Guards' colour party again. Very first figures I had many years ago. (1960 to 1965 or so?) Rob.
