It is amazing what a 3D printer can do. I wonder how you would write a program to make these items from scratch. This is going to be an amazing and challenging project. Looking forward to pictures of finish product. Thanks for posting. Howard

Julie, Thank you for the great video, I watched it through more than once. There is so much to see, wish I could have been there. Still waiting for the Texas Toy Soldier Show to be active again. Thanks Howard

The Photo and diorama capture the intensity of Hand to Hand combat in the Ancient world. Once the 2 armies close the melee becomes uncontrollable and the most disciplined troops usually won. Great photo. Howard

The Iberians were Hannibal's best shock troops in my opinion. When fighting in wedge formation the Romans had a tough time dealing with them. A great addition to the Carthaginian army and the figures look great. Howard

Mike, Your layout looks great. What I did was where the sections did not quite line up I used pieces of Thin card stock and shimmed under the low sections to get them to line up better. Was not perfect but lined up a whole lot better and gave a better appearance in my opinion. Just a suggestion...

In my opinion the Jacobite Highlanders are the best figures that JJD has produced. They are expertly uniformed in their family tartan uniforms with great detail. Howard

These look great, more Republican Romans for my Carthaginian Elephants to romp on. I especially like the casualty figures to give the diorama more realism. Dioramas of battle scenes with everyone standing and fighting but nobody is injured or down is not realistic. That is just my opinion. Howard

With all the new releases of the Mid Republican Romans Enemies and allies I hope that he restocks the Mid-Republican Romans because they are getting hard to find. Maybe even some new Mid Republican Roman figures.🤞 Howard

Although I am concerned about Toy Soldier increases my real concern is for Medical Supplies and Pharmaceuticals. We have sent all our know how and manufacturing to China and they have us by the proverbial ying-yang. Hopefully they will knuckle under because we buy 5 to 10 times more imports...

Great article, thanks for sharing. The fighting hand to hand at that time was extremely brutal. It is amazing that more mass graves have not been found. Vienna was the scene of many battles through the centuries and has such a rich history. Howard

These are what is still available $33.00 each PayPal F&F 16050 10003 Thank you Howard

Hello Mike, It is so refreshing to see you showcase a diorama other than WWII. Don't get me wrong I love all time periods but the Forum has gotten too WWII heavy and needs more diversification like this article. I am personally a Horse and Musket period fan but my father fought in WWII Pacific...

I would contact JJD and ask for a fix. It is clearly not a one off problem. I am guessing a 2 part epoxy glue not mixed properly. No telling what the Chinese have as a Quality Control if any. Sorry to hear of your misfortunes, it should have never happened. Howard
