New recruits 

These were waiting for me when l got home today:


The top row has two mounted figures with steel helmets for use as interwar cavalry. There’s also the camel mounted one too...

I particularly like the highly animated highland infantry in kilts. Any help with suggestions for identifying the figures very much appreciated.

    Kneeling Sailor is Johillco - will check the others tonight. Can't see the steel helmet cavalry that well - Britain's did some.

    Figure next to Highlanders could be Crescent pre and post war.
    Some steel,helmeted cavalry can be quite rare but I can't see these well enough to work out maker yet.
