That is why i have not seen Carl von Clausewitz or Mao Zedong posting lately. We do need to respect her wishes, as it is stressful and hard time for those who rely on the TS market for their income. Much more than it is for just us collectors.

These look excellent, well worth the money, 1 little thing. Would have preferred only 1 panzerschreck and given the other figure a Panzerfaust. Does this mean potential Allied armour for them to 'hunt'

Looks excellent, but think their geography needs to be rviewed, have been to Normandy, and the Ardennes, many times and think Bastogne is a bit far, and in another country, to have a directional sign in Normandy!

Whoever thought of and created this has done a great job Nearly 30,000 ceramic poppies are on display at the Tower of London to mark 80 years since the end of World War Two in Europe. The red poppies have been positioned to resemble a cascading "wound" at the heart of the Norman fortress, which...

You guys are still getting stiffed on this, do genuinely feel sorry for fellow collectors. 90 days is still awful as the tariffs are still significantly higher than 2024, means way higher prices still for that period, as for the hobby worldwide this has dire implications as the USA is well over...

Cheers, not sure King Charles is a 'loony', but he certainly does not have the powers King George had. However, The 'looney' tab may have infected the USA and a leader who thinks/wants to be a King [or is it Pope or Jedi] and has done the 21st Century version of throwing the Boston Tea Party.

I did think of the boat as well, it is an impressive piece when you see it in the exhibition, could also be altered and used/sold [using different figures] for the Rhine Crossing, but might be a bit niche and not generate enought sales for the cost. I also remember seeing a German horse pulling...

Looks Great, have not got any of that mini series of Grenadiers, will get at some point but there is so much other stuff i want from K & C they will have to wait a while.

Very nice display, i have mine in some cabinets from a company called Picture Pride, see pic below of one of the three cabinets, no glass front on it as too much glare with it on.

Excellent, always enjoy these. Has the Royal Marine on the left got one of those 'automatic, rapid firing' rifles. Sharpe, Harper and Hagman would be impressed, definately more than 3 rounds a minute.

Agree, but i think one thing is missing from this discussion, tax and profit, no profit no tax. i sell around £500 to £700 some months, not every month, i am selling stuff bought from dealers, at shows, etc and more often than not it goes for less than i paid, so if there is a discussion on...

Cheers, short video below, Pics of the Poteau Crossroads [there are loads of pictures and video as there was a German propaganda unit at the scene], some scenes/pics are staged but they were staged within an or two of the action. The Winter Fallshirmjagers riding on the back of the Tiger II...

Dogs had a Woof day

Totally agree on ebay and you have to wait and wait for your money, plus when it is released they do not tell you and you have to keep checking, have £962 on hold at the minute through no fault of mine, all items have been received. I make the error not to use their postage as it is terrible...
