Danbury Mint - Dad’s Army
I see that the Danbury Mint are offering, for a mere £299.00, a Steiff-made Captain Mainwaring teddy bear, complete with cap badge and insignia.

Hmm, although as a HG collector I would like something like that, but would have to do a calculation to see how many badges on my wnat list the cost of the bear would be!!! Have to pass, as I prefer the badges, but nice to see.
I do have a nice porcelain bunny HG figure though, but it was no where near that cost, but more like the cost of a fairly common badge. BNY-Homeguard-DB371.jpg Terry |

This bear with a small embroidered beret badge was sold by the Royal Marines Museum many years ago.

I think the HG PR agent must have put the Regulars’ noses out of joint. Looks like a bit of interregimental competition going on in Toy Town. Action Man wants in…
