After a few technical gremlins which prevented me from getting things underway yesterday as I intended, our Australian WWII infantryman, sculpted by the talented Mike Broadbent who is best known for his work with Eureka Miniatures and painted by veteran Andy MacDonald-Rice, begins its journey towards raising a chunk of funds for the Battlegames Combat Stress Appeal.
The eBay auction will begin this evening at 20:04:39 GMT. I’ve scheduled it for a UK evening finish so that supporters around the world will also be able to bid at relatively civilised times of day.
Look for the following auction title:
“28mm painted WW2 Australian infantryman for Battlegames Combat Stress Appeal” listed in category Toys & Games > Wargames & Role-Playing > Table Top/ Historical.
The Item Number is 150951426039.
The auction page on eBay is now live here.
Bidding opens at a measly £0.99 GBP to make sure that any of you can afford to bid, so please participate! Of course, we’re hoping to raise a great deal more than this by the end of the bidding, which lasts for 10 days.
100% of the proceeds of the auction will go to Combat Stress via eBay’s MissionFish system.
Just to say many thanks to all those who bid on the Australian Infantryman and a special thanks to the kind person who placed the winning bid. Your money is going to a very good and worthwhile cause.
Cheers
Andy Mac
