Humbug...
That is your opinion. Once again another poster cries for the ''jewish authorities'' to come on and get involved. Perhaps they have sufficient other issues to deal with. These figures or representations of them have been on sale for many decades and, its always the same thing.
Ban Ban Ban and more censorship from the vocal groups who shout the most. Nobody on here or elsewhere boasts about buying LAH figures to insult holocaust victims or survivors yet, some want the very freedoms that were fought for in WWII to be renaged because it does not somehow sit with their moral code. If we ban parade figures then next are military units perhaps, we will ban Totenkopf, Das Reich, LAH, any swastika air flags as it supports the regime and, the rest. ban the german cossacks for their brutality against russian civillians and partisans any german police as they heavily assisted in the deportation and execution after the army units had taken areas then, the Heer themselves for their active role in the ability to destroy large portions of the local communities invaded.
Then we can really get started, ban the russian troops from all manufacturers, for the millions they tortured and killed not only their own people but, rumanians poles bulgarians the millions of german women raped and terribly abused in the victory over eastern germany and Berlin.
Where can we go then??? perhaps, the chinese and japanese for horrendous treatment of civillians and prisoners of war.
Any US air crew figures should be banned because of the bombing of japan and the two atomic bombs which, caused endless suffering even today and the luftwaffe and raf for killing hundereds of thousands of civillians. Ban modern stuff because of the controversy over the Falklands conflict, Iraq one and two Afghanistan
Whats left??... no choice for collectors because there would be no hobby. Lets get a grip of reality we deal and thrive in our hobby that deals with the history leading upto and including the second world war and, these events were nasty but, according to the ban brigade we can have lots of Waffen SS in our homes portraying the very divisions and the men who paraded and murdered civillians french italian belgian et al but, thats fine cause another allied tank in my collection means I can justify having the murderous SS in my house.
My family faught for the right for people to do as they please living in relative freedom and able to do what they wish. If anyone wants to collect SS figures in parade and, there are many more who sell them in the UK and around the world than K&C then it is their right to do so, Without the constant pointless threats of jewish intervention or other such nonsense, especially, in modern times.
I hate the phrase on here if you dont like dont buy but, if you don't like don't comment or at least have the morality to say no german items in my house full stop. Not, say parade figures are terrible tell teacher and then justify havin g other SS in your home. Its all slightly double standards to me from those only, who scream for bans
