| Sacul: [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]Sacul was a small company owned by a Mr Lucas, the company name being his surname in reverse. The armour on these knights is very shiny because he used an electroplating method. At the end of the lead era, Mr Lucas closed down 'Sacul', and started making plastic soldiers/figures under a new brand name, 'Paramount'. All lead Sacul and plastic Paramount items are rare and difficult to find. Indeed only a few of the most geeky plastics collectors even know the Paramount brand existed. |

Scale is 1:32 or a bit smaller (such as the Cherilea Crusaders) |

| I've found specially interesting the information about Sicul/Paramount and the manufacturing detail. It is also great that all are 54mm and that they work nicely together. |
