Del Prado is a European multinational present in 23 countries on the 5 continents devoted to the publication of collectibles, sold principally through the distribution channels of the press and direct subscriptions. Within its broad catalogue are some areas in which it has become a worldwide point of reference: modelling, metal miniatures, military collecting, etc. Among these genres, military collecting and, more specifically, model soldiers, have been notable for the loyalty our customers have shown us and the continual encouragement they have given us to develop new series and products, always basing ourselves on a very strict reading of history.

After the successes we had with Soldiers of the 20th century, Napoleonic Soldiers, Napoleonic Cavalry, Medieval Soldiers, Fire Soldiers, Scenes from Ancient Egypt and so many others, the moment has come to bring together the entire accumulated catalogue and provide our customers and the lovers of military collecting a service unique at this time: a shop to offer all the figurines brought out so far by Del Prado, in which customers can ask for the models they are most interested in at the time, without needing to subscribe to a complete series. With each of these (except in the cases specified) the figurine will arrive accompanied by a full-colour monographic leaflet in which they will find detailed information, compiled by experts from all over the world, which will allow them to get the most out of their miniature and discover the pleasure of the best collections. All this with the Del Prado guarantees of service – including delivery anywhere in the world – and on a secure website environment (certified by Verisign) where you may make your purchases with complete confidence.

We hope that www.delpradosoldiers.com will have an excellent reception among fans the world over. We are presently preparing versions in French, German, Italian and Spanish to make access to all customers easy. We are also developing new figurines to surprise you with, which will appear gradually in the novelties section. Moreover we are continually renewing promotions and special offers that will allow you to enter the fascinating world of military collecting in the best conditions. Visit us regularly. We hope to surprise you every time!

We want this to be the page for all lovers of military collecting and those who want to start out: send us your comments, your proposals and your ideas on contact us. Trust us to make the military collecting webpage you’ve been waiting for.
