WTF? ;)

Being an old Aussie I also have fond memories of the now classic movies from the 1970's, Waterloo and the Battle of Britain being stand outs to me. I recently watched the Battle of Britain on Netflix and the 'bloody flying goggles' scene was almost as horrific and impressive on my large tv...

Looks like that particular Moron has moved on, but suspect he will reappear under another name soon enough, it's what they do.

Good question, that looks like a modern repaint to me, and there's always the exception to the 'rule' where WW2 paint schemes are concerned.

Hey Mike, I hope you enjoyed your week at the beach. Yesterday was our shortest day Downunder, I'm now looking forward to longer days and the end of Winter, hurry up 31st August.

Agree, sadly their figures weren't so good.

Hi Arty, I actually do have a record on this forum as being more focused on scale and accuracy than most collectors having a long term interest in the technology of modern warfare and building scale kits etc. My main interest is in WW2 tanks, especially German, therefore I am more concerned...

True, not many people actually like change or improvements, especially as we age. Toy Soldiers are a good 'constant' but even they are now very different from the original Glossy Toys Soldiers that people collected back in the day. That said, you can't avoid new technology, I'm looking forward...

Amazing diorama.

Steve, to clarify my 'Nothing to see here' post. I gave up trying to work out how to complete an earlier post using the Quote Reply options, I decided to just make another post and left 'Nothing to see here' as my attempt at comedy :)

Personally I'm old school in most things, prefer figures in a diorama any day.

Steve, thanks for that, never heard of them, but certainly are an interesting regiment. I searched their history and came up with an artist new to me 'John Everett Millais' who painted 'The Black Brunswicker' amongst other excellent paintings. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Black_Brunswicker

Nothing to see here ;)

Steve, delightful dios mate, are those Black uniformed troops Prussians or a special regiment?

Nice garden.
