Detailed Character Identification, Description, and Historical Background

Character Identification

A two-figure collection showing two versions of Princess Elizabeth during her Second World War ATS service: a khaki service-uniform figure and a mechanic-overalls figure.

Detailed Character Description

• ATS Uniform Figure: Khaki peaked cap, brown side-hair detail, printed tunic with shirt and tie, small chest decorations, waist belt and dark footwear.
• ATS Mechanic Figure: Matching khaki cap and face style, with printed overalls, workwear pockets, seams, oil-stain-style marks and dark footwear.
• Collection Theme: The two designs depict the same historical person in different clothing and working contexts, rather than two different named servicewomen.

1. Princess Elizabeth — ATS Uniform Version

The service-uniform interpretation represents Elizabeth as a member of the wartime ATS. Its shirt, tie, tunic and belt give this figure an orderly uniformed appearance, with the pictured khaki cap completing the design.

2. Princess Elizabeth — ATS Mechanic Overalls Version

The workwear interpretation recalls her driver and mechanic training. Printed overalls, chest pockets and dark oil-stain-style marks distinguish its workshop theme from the service-uniform figure.

Included: Two complete Princess Elizabeth brick figures: one ATS uniform version and one ATS mechanic-overalls version, each with the pictured worn khaki cap.

Historical / Thematic Background

This two-figure collection presents Princess Elizabeth, later Queen Elizabeth II, through two complementary aspects of her ATS theme. She joined the Auxiliary Territorial Service in 1945 and trained as a driver and mechanic. The uniform and workshop versions place a named historical figure within the wider story of women’s service in the Second World War.

The ATS provided the British Army with personnel for transport, administration and other support duties. Its responsibilities expanded during the war, reflecting the growing importance of women’s work to military operations. Elizabeth’s practical vehicle training belongs to that support role, rather than a frontline combat biography.

The service-uniform figure uses a printed khaki tunic, shirt and tie, waist belt and small chest decorations. The mechanic version changes the clothing to overalls with pocket outlines, seams and dark oil-stain-style marks. Their matching cap and face style make the shared identity clear while allowing each design to suggest a different setting.

Displayed together, the pair can link a service gathering with a training-yard or workshop scene. It offers two representations of the same person for a historical or royal collection. Both complete figures and their pictured worn caps are included in the set.
