Two Figure Diorama depicting members of 3 Para after the Battle for Mount Longdon, Falklands 1982.
 
The diorama was created taking advice on the uniforms from a highly respected veteran of 3 Para who served in the Falklands. The troops do not carry webbing as most members of the battalion ditched there webbing and stuffed equipment into smock pockets. After the battle, many members of the 3rd Battalion unfastened their helmet chinstraps while occupying the mountain, which is depicted in both figures.

What is a limited edition item?
 
With figure piracy on the increase, producing units in a limited edition means both the producer and collector are aware exactly how many units are in existence and in which scales.  A numbered certificate will be included with the figures detailing the number of the edition in the relevant scale. A limited means the item will only be produced in a maximum number of the edition size stated. Once this number has been reached no further figures will be produced.
