Hello everyone!!
This set of diecast fox hunters and hounds are made by Britains, a British toy brand. I've seen quite a few Britains toys and, like these, they're all incredibly detailed. The horse and riders are made of diecast metal and the hounds are all made of lead. These date back to the early 1940's. Though they've all experienced a bit of paint loss over the years, they're still a great set and I'm happy to have them as part of my collection. The horses and hunters each measure 3" tall and 3" long, while the hounds each measure about 1 1/2" long.
Thanks for stopping in for a look!!

The perspective in the first picture made me think the fox was huge..lol. great set with lots of details.
Thanks Jenni! I’m glad it’s in such nice condition still.
Thanks Phil!! I felt lucky have found it in such nice condition.
Thanks Dave!! Never thought about it, but it does look huge at first glance:)
Before it closed last year the Toy and Train Museum here in the Blue Mountains had an excellent collection of Britains figure.
They are incredible; so much detail.
Congrats on finding them Scott!
