Regimental Flagbearer
This is a Consignment sale item we are offering. It comes in its original box and is in like-new condition.
King & Country's PnM012 Regimental Flagbearer
The “Blew Regiment of the Cittie of London Trayned Bandes” was a militia regiment of about 1200 musketeers and 800 pikemen drawn from the citizens of the capitol. At the time England had no standing army so, in times of war and strife, locally trained volunteers were virtually all that was available.
Upon the outbreak of war London declared for Parliament and the regiment fought in most of the notable battles of the conflict. King & Country's flagbearer holds the standard of the 5th Captain of the Regiment.
Special Uniform Note:
The soldiers who fought in the English Civil War had more uniformity than their Continental contemporaries in the “Thirty Years War”...What uniformity they had was very much up to the tastes and pockets of individual colonels who raised each regiment.
Most officers wore their own personal civilian clothes. The rank and file however was issued with certain items such as coats, breeches, various headgear (including helmets) and of course, shoes, boots and stockings – subject to availability.
Blue and red were the most common uniform colours although white, grey and green were also seen in both armies. In effect this means that what is called “Parliamentary” with this first release can alternatively “change sides” as more soldiers appear to be released in the future.

Kiwi Flagbearer
This mounted rifleman carries the National Flag. Fighting alongside the Australians in Palestine, Gallipoli, Egypt and the Western Front were their Antipodean ‘cousins’... The New Zealanders. Although then as now New Zealand is a relatively small country (in terms of population) it has provided many thousands of fine fighting men in both world wars and other conflicts. In 1914 it offered its best volunteers to help support the “Mother Country” in its war against Germany. Among those soldiers were the men of their own “Mounted Rifle Regiments” who performed in the same military role as Australia’s Light Horse units. After arriving in Egypt in 1915 they helped form the very first joint ANZAC * mounted division.
*Australian New Zealand Army Corps
Over the years since King & country has introduced their Light Horse figures we have been requested to design and release some of their Kiwi cousins ... and this is them.
