Hornet
Modeling the U.S. Army in WWII


Hornet is a U.K. company run by skilled sculptor Roger Saunders. The company has a sizeable line of white metal figures, primarily British and German. Lately, most of their offerings have been exquisite replacement resin heads. Like Ultracast's heads, they scale in size best for Tamiya figures and do wonders for the older sets. They can also be used with select Warriors and DML figures, but the helmets are more accurately scaled than the oversized ones from the other two companies.

Hornet also has a sibling company, Wolf, which produces resin figures.
