Very neat. I think the one in the middle is either a Gordon or a MacArthur

They look hand painted not an easy task on such a scale especially when it comes to depicting tartan!

Hey, there, Sara...
Even though they've told us to the contrary, I think we should still at least pretend that he is a MacArthur! I mean, with the amazing piping connection and such, everyone needs to have a little MacArthur guy!

Hi Splash, I would suggest that the figure on the left in the Scots Guards, and the one on the right is Black Watch.
You can tell a lot from the sporran, and the bonnet hackle.
The Black Watch have a white sporran with five black tassles, with red hackle,............. and the Scots Guards have a white sporran with three tassles, and a half blue half red hackle.
So the painter is pretty spot on.
Are they London Bridge toys by any chance?...by Brittains?
This kinda thing is right up my street.
Neil.

My thoughts exactly!!
Though my better judgment (only clouded by history) made me think the green one was a Gordon.
