C.B.G. in France is the oldest toy soldier company still producing figures from some of its original designs.

The 55mm figures are solid and made from a soft metal , so weapons do have a tendency to bend and loose their paint. 

Figure's as the knight, can have a very pleasing style.

Collecting them is some what different, as you can mix past and present knights, same castings, different paint finishes.

This is almost unique, I can't think of a manufacturer other than Peter Greenhill with the Courtenay figures using very old molds new figures in metal.
