Hi Willie
The group of three elephants is made with heinrichsen figures
The first one is Retter (Dangelmaïer)
Of course I am not sure a white elephant (very rare) should have been sent to battle, but it fits well in the scene

Nice set of elephants. Who makes them I would like to get a set. Also I know of white elephants in fact I have pictures of them but would they have been put into the battle? Have to take a look at my two books I have on War Elephants. You know what would be a net figure. How about a elephant pushing a fright car or pushing or pulling a RAF plane in Burma doing the second World War. With RAF rounds on its rear . Willie
