Bunnies

There are only four poses in the set.
Here is an Elastowit 54mm Professor Challenger figure confronting the rabbits.
Joined by an MPC ring hands modern army figure.  This is a sort of proof of concept set up to get an idea about how menacing the rabbits seem with different figures.  Being surrounded by this many bunnies might be a bit unnerving at this scale but depending on their demeanor it might actually be fun.
With 1/73nd scale British Infantry from the Colonial era they are much more imposing.
They are the size of a large polar bear.
Might take more than a few rifle shots to bring down one of these guys.
Chard, they are not after the Mission Station, they are after the mealie in the bags!

HaT Set 8293 British Infantry (Tropical)

These are First World War British Infantry in the tropical uniform by HaT.
They are all wearing the Wolseley helmet and short pants.
In the first half of the 20th Century US forces in the Philippines wore this helmet.
Normally this set comes in tan plastic but apparently it is now molded in green.
There was no flash and all the troops were molded perfectly.
It is likely that at least a few of these will become US troops in the Philippines and some may also end up as civilian big game hunters or adventurers.
These are WWI troops but I think they would work well enough for British troops as late as he mid 1950s in tropical regions.

British Colonial Artillery

British Colonial Artillery by HaT in 1/72nd scale.
Four guns and four crews in soft plastic.
Guns and figures are flash free.
Guns fit together easily.
My intention is to use these as late 19th Century American Army troops.

French 75 and Japanese 65 Million Years Ago

Iron Giant, robots, now Godzilla.
It's always something.
This is the original Godzilla from the first movie.
That's why he is mostly in gray tones.
Just the right size to take on a 1917 era army.
