No worries at all Trooper! Agreed, the Mark Antony in your picture does look good, but I've always thought James Purefoy's portryal of the man in Rome was the business: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Markantony_rom.jpg If you haven't seen it yet Bernard, check it out - I promise you won't...

Thanks a million for the pictures Reb, that's really fascinating stuff. Molloy.

I'd definitely second that advice! I've only ever brought K&C purchases on a plane once, but I made sure to bring them as part of myself and my girlfriend's hand luggage - the thought of them being flung in and out of the baggage hold below was too much to bear:D! The security guards at the...

Now that's a very nice month's Dispatches! No major retirements, and lots of new releases spread out across a couple of different periods. Ron, you're a very lucky man, not only has the Napoloenic period received an awful lot of attention this time round, but they're all French to boot! It is...

Thanks for the tips mate, a trip over there sounds extremely do-able! The reason I'd be specifically curious about transport is because both myself and my girlfriend currently only hold provisional Irish driving licences, which would rule out renting and driving a car on the Continent for both...

He, he, well at least the bag expired in the service of a worthy cause then! I should have thought of chancing my arm at some extra bags while I was there! They are lovely though as souvenir pieces - I don't think mine will be leaving the relative safety of my bedroom for a while. Yes, the...

Cheers Tony, Yeah I'm definitely going to have to get the act together and get over for that! I was toying a while ago with the idea of bringing the lady love over on a day trip to London for the June show and splitting the day up into the show during the morning, and then hitting Oxford...

Hi Rob, I haven't managed yet to make it over to any of the First World War sites, but it's something that's long been on the agenda - quite aside from any personal interest in the military history, it's always struck me as a very, very moving place. When you go over, do you go as part of an...

Thanks a million for the pictures and commentary lads, looks like Saturday was a really great day out! I'm really going to have to make the effort to get over for one of these shows soon! Cheers, Molloy.

Hi Bernard, Not sure if this would match up to the 1 foot high requirement, but King & Country do this fairly nice set of Caesar and Mark Antony being presented to Cleopatra as part of their Ancient Egyptian range. Have a look and see what you think - as far as I can tell, Mark Antony is the...

Cheers for posting Rob, was so knackered when I went to bed last night I didn't realise today was July 1st until I woke up and looked at my phone - the Somme's always the first thing that flashes through my mind when I see that date. Here's to all of them. Molloy.

Cheers for all the pictures, Ron, looks like you had some time over there! Got to love the Toysoldiers Paris carrier bag Mrs. Phillips is sporting - I was almost as pleased with that as I was with my actual purchases!! It's been nearly three months since I was over there and I haven't used the...

Is it just me, or does the the new figure bear a slight resemblence to Keith Carradine's French Hussar officer in "The Duellists"?? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3VVHSounmrE It's certainly an excellent looking figure, and superbly detailed. The price is definitely justifiable based on the...

Looks quite interesting, cheers for the link mate! Molloy.

I think that's actually deliberately intended to be the same chant from Zulu! Apparently Ridley Scott was a big fan of the film, and so had the Germanic warriors in the opening forest battle utter the same war cry as a subtle little tribute. Cheers, Molloy.

He, he, nicely done Rob! That's started Wednesday off with a smile for me! Cheers mate, Molloy.

Happy Birthday mate, hope it's a great day for you! Cheers, Molloy.

Always great to see more Napoleonics! Well done, looking brilliant. Cheers, Molloy.

If nothing else, it would melt all that snow away:D! Molloy.

Happy Birthday, guys!! Molloy.
