For a while they were sold as 20mm Zone, using the original masters for new moulds for metal and/or resin kits. A lot of the range is now with Early War Miniatures.Vintage Wargaminghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04251018372867101509noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3399255049115922694.post-10443603006366545352018-06-17T16:47:09.428+01:002018-06-17T16:47:09.428+01:00I still have a pair of ancient old Hinchliffe Germ...I still have a pair of ancient old Hinchliffe German 105mm howitzers.
