JonBee 20mm Listing

I'd meant to put this up before Chistmas but the cached document (if that's a computer term - I may just have made it up) to Vintage20Mil had briefly disappeared. Anyway, it's back now so here is the JonBee listing as best we were able to assemble it.

Looking down the list I'd have to guess that the Greek-looking officer type I posted a picture of earlier is actually the Macedonian heavy swordsman.



These little chaps are from the Greek range, clearly, but whether they are Greek Officer throwing Spear or Spartan throwing spear is another matter. I'm favouring the former, if only because the Garrison 20mm Spartans had a different style of helmet.

A further 11 cavalry figures were added including Huns, Goths and Mongols unfortunately we have not yet been able to find further details.

For it's time - c.1966 - this would easily have been the most comprehensive range of ancient figures available (if you ignore the German flats used by Tony Bath and others, that is), In fact even by modern standards it is pretty comprehensive.

  1. Time to reassess that tin of figures I got off you a couple of years back? It included some Mongol type cavalry, same size as Garrison 20mm. Quite a few of the other figures are matching some of the ones you are posting now.

    Oh, Happy New Year!

    1. Happy New Year to you too, Rob. If you wanted to you could send me a few of the figures to snap for this blog - I think there were a lot of Byzantines.
      Best

  2. Quicker and easier to send photos - email sent with attachments. Do you want photos of the Byzantines as well as the Mongols?

  3. Thanks, Rob. Yes that would be excellent. I suspect there may be an Assyrian in there too...

  4. Happy New Year...
    and many thanks for collecting the list.
    For me this range was nearly unknown. The spearmen looks really dashing. When compared to most more "static" figures like most of the figures from that age it is really looking great.
    Sadly they are nearly unavailable here in Germany as here is the land of plastics. And vintage metal soldiers not well known.
