AB Figures are run by Anthony Barton and Michael Hickling. We have both been wargaming for over 35 years. Now we are returning to our first love - WW2. To us authenticity, detailed design and quality are key and we go to great lengths to research our figures using contemporary illustrations, photographs and artifacts.
We hope you will like our figures – we really believe that we supply the best "Men in Miniature" for the dedicated Wargamer and Modeller.
About Anthony
After a childhood spent making plasticene animals and gaining an indifferent degree in Zoology, Anthony Barton ("AB") started his career making biological and archaeological models for museums.
Military figures had always been a hobby, and growing poorer prompted him to start making them seriously in about 1985. The "AB" range was launched in 1990, and he now devotes most of his time to it, with periodic diversions into larger-scale projects: historical paint-work, sculpture and reconstructed costumes – he has worked for many historical institutions.
He lives quietly in a small house near York, surrounded by interesting junk, and only goes out to play music with the York Waits, a 16th Century wind band which he helped found in 1977, or to indulge in historical re-enactments in interesting places, generally involving bows or early firearms.
About Michael
Michael is our craftsman making the moulds and running the small foundry and manufacturing process from his home in the beautiful Welsh countryside. He also packs and despatches your orders with help from his wife..
Michael has also actively helped in archaeological excavations including Fishbourne Roman Palace, and the exciting Patching Gold Coin Hoard, and occasionally works on digs in Wales like Dinefwr Castle and Llandeilo Roman Fort. He now enjoys pottering around the countryside in his 1943 Willys Jeep.

"Battleline Miniatures" the new name of the business previously called "Wildly Inspired Miniatures". Based in Auckland, New Zealand. As new owners we decided to give the business a new name and create a new website and online store.
It's been quite a bit of work getting this website ready. I've never done anything like this before and learning html was interesting! Anyway I hope you like the website, I'll definitely be adding more and better product photos over time, including photos of painted miniatures. Sorry there isn't a photo for every product yet, but there is nearly a 1000 miniatures in total! Your feedback is welcome and I'll take constructive criticism so let me have it!

Designing and manufacturing miniature wargaming figures and equipments. We have been mail ordering miniatures around the world for over 45 years.
Museum Miniatures (QT Models) have been around for over 45 years in one way or another. We started life as a Model Shop in Bridlington a coastal resort in Yorkshire, England during the early 70s. We started selling wargaming figures and as the hobby became more and more popular we started designing and casting a few unobtainable miniatures for our local wargamers. Things they couldn't get hold of elsewhere.
In 45 years of manufacturing wargaming miniatures we have designed and cast 300th scale Buildings, sci-fi spacecraft. 25mm and 15mm wargaming figures. We now concentrate mainly on 15mm figures and equipment and have an extensive range from the Mycenaean Greeks up to American Civil War and beyond. We are primarily a mail order company selling directly to wargamers all over the world. Our customers order from as near as England, France, Holland or as far away as New Zealand and South Africa. We moved in 1998 to our present address, 28 Long Lane, Driffield, Yorkshire YO25 5HF.
