thank you Brian  8) ;)  ...... I have following questions if you don t mind and you maybe know, mate.  will be figures selling in set only or separately? in upcoming band set, will be there instruments such as - oboe , trombone or trumpet?


at the moment I have only what is offered in Schmidt catalogue - flute, drums & pipes, so I wish to add it to composition. I really welcome this addition.  :)  Especially, the flag holder is top.

I sent the question to WM and this is the reply from Dick, don't know if it will help??


"The Colour Party will only be sold as a set. I am not doing a band just fife and  drums but it will have pipers.
One Scottish and an Irish."
