There was a very welcome appearance at the Plastic Warrior Show by Tony Ciccarello, owner of Armies in Plastic who was showcasing some new pieces of artillery for the American Revolution and War of 1812 ranges. The figures are not new but the guns are, a howitzer and a mortar plus a bonus - there was some spare room on the mould so they have made a small "dragon head" barrel which can be fixed to either of these guns to turn them into Chinese Boxer Rebellion cannon.

Also on show were the Camel Corps artillery with figures in red plastic, I was just about to embark on the conversion of some camel borne artillery for my Funny Little Wars Turkish army so these will save me the job! In the bottom right of the picture you can also just about make out the new trench sections AIP plan to produce, they are made of foam and come in modular form so you can make a line of trenches as long as you like.
And here's the man who makes them, Tony Ciccarello (hope I've spelt that right) of Armies in Plastic.
