W. Britain Collectors’ Club (1 Viewer)

I just received my renewal letter today. I will renew my membership because the cost is relatively nominal and I think it’s good for the hobby to support the club; however, I’m curious as to what the thoughts are of the forum members on the club’s ‘26 terms.

I've already renewed my membership for this year.
I do miss the standard, but two club figures is also fine.

The 2025 Club figure I chose has not even been released yet. Considering this and that I have no interest in the 2026 Club figures, I probably will not renew my membership.

I will definitely renew my membership. With 2 Club figures and a $50.00 voucher all for a $75 member ship fee is a great deal for me. Also in the past you were not restricted to Club figures so if that still holds true it is even a better deal. You could choose from any figure that they have in stock of past releases.

I talked with Ted Deddens this morning. This year's club membership is a little different. The two "free figures" that come with membership can ONLY be used for Club Figures. The voucher can be used on any WB figure in stock, however the two "free figures" are restricted only to Club Figures.

Thanks for all the responses.

FWIW, in my opinion, $75 is not too much to pay to keep one of the hobby's institutitions going.

I may add that I will also miss the Standard. The research that Ken put into it and his guest contributors was nothing short of excellence. The amount of information in these short articles kept me reading from cover to cover. But also I understand the cost and time involvement may also take away from the ability to focus on toy soldier development and manufacturing at todays ever increasing costs. Like TSCollector I am committed to supporting Ted and all the gang at W. Britain and hope they maintain a long and profitable business.

I'm renewing--I'm with W. Britain for the long haul.

I am renewing as well. Don't know which figures I will pick yet.

Gotta at least get the Berdan, right? I'm already down for one.

I got the Berdan as well. Always thought their uniforms and gear were the coolest in my reenacting days.
