Black Watch Piper by King and Country

The next piece I am wanting to talk about is a beautiful example of late craftsmanship in the toy soldier world.  King and Country, is a relatively new company based out of Hong Kong (if my company ever sends me to the home office... I am FOR SURE making a pitstop at K&C). 

This piece means quite a bit to me as it was one that I found on a more recent trip to San Antonio.  On this trip, I once again stayed at the historical Menger hotel which happens to be home to King's X Toy Soldiers.  As I perused the product at King's X, this one really jumped out to me.  Now dont get me wrong, there were bands and complete sets that I would have loved to have... but at this particular time money was quite tight as I had just started my job...  This was all I could afford.  Looking back- I feel quite blessed to have picked up this gorgeous piece as it is so bloody detailed and stands to be one of my favorite single soldiers in the collection.
