Can anyone make a (big) kid's Christmas wishes come true? I'm looking for the following retired First Legion World War Two sets, PM me if you have any of these: GERSTAL: 009 010 019 039 042 059A RUSSTAL: 011 015 036A or 036B 038 039 Tank Commanders: TC009 TC011

Matt, That is one really cool Russian resistance vignette. I'm very happy to see the figures not permanently attached to the base, so they can be used in different ways. Keep up the great work, and get busy releasing that Marder III Ausf M already!

I wish the eye-patched SS Paul Hausser figure's base was dirt and grass like the Guderian figure, but the figure itself looks great. I also like the SS Skorzeny figure, just trying to figure out how I would display it.

As for aesthetics issue, I think the black muzzle brake dead horse has been beat to death, and you could probably move on from it. First Legion's more recent models like the Jagdpanzer IVs, Elefant, and Ferdinand have muzzle brakes with a LOT less black weathering. It's almost non-existent on...

I'd submit that two of your assumptions are incorrect: The Germans did not use black powder, and therefore their ammunition was smokeless. - the "smokeless" powder used in German ammunition just means it did not produce excessive smoke that lingered and floated on the battlefield. Smokeless...

Mastercom, you might be better served saying your preference is for a non-blackened muzzle brake, because you think it looks better. There's absolutely nothing wrong with that, and I'm sure there are other collectors who share your sentiment. However, making a factual declaration that a...

Plastic Platoon has a pretty good female Russian Sniper sculpt...

Love it Mark. Great vignette.

Thanks to Cris Tay for posting up more sneak peaks. Looks like more Fallschirmjagers are are on the way, along with a large group of marching US Paratroopers.

I thought the overspray was a mistake myself when I got pics of the paint master to go over, but John had sharper eyes than both of us. Remember, the "8" is the Kompanie number so there are multiple Panzer IIs from Panzer Regiment 8 with the black "8", so some of them may not have had the...

This is awesome news. Plastic Platoon has a catalog of amazing sculpts that will work perfectly with your lines. And I can't wait for the new DAK figures! Give us some Pith helmets please! Any hints on which ones?

My fingers are crossed this is true, since Dallas is within easy driving distance for me.

Sneak peak for the 15 cm sFH18 and crew...

This German Sniper Team was a nice surprise. We need some ruined house scenics to build out this vignette into a scene. The Roman Gladiator school scenics look great, so please make some WW2 scenics too.
