Hours are noon to 5PM Friday, and 9AM to 4PM Saturday. The awards ceremony is after 5PM. More details available at this page of our website: https://www.mfcaclub.com/about-the-exhibition Look forward to seeing you at the show! Prost! Brad

I look forward to seeing in person whatever you bring to the show, Dennis! Prost! Brad

We have several dealers who could not make the show because of scheduling conflicts. Our traditional show dates have always had potential to conflict with events like Mothers' Day (this weekend) and college graduations especially. This year, we have 1 graduation; 3 vendors moving, either a...

You might want to reach out to the Ontario Model Soldier Society, too: https://www.omss.ca/ I know it's the next province over, but they might know more specifics. Their website lists an email address, and they have a Facebook page, too, if you use Facebook. Prost! Brad

Here's the URL to their website: https://thelodgeauction.com/ And this is the URL for the specific auction: https://thelodgeauction.com/auction/322-may-6th-online/ They've lost points with me by not including that info in the original post. I found it easiest to pull up the auction and then...

Don't trust the machine. They're not Stadden or Greenwood & Ball, not 54mm, anyway. Are you sure that they're 54mm, or are they smaller? In the photos, they look more like 1/72 scale figures. The bases also look like the bases I've seen on the smaller figures. Maybe take a picture with a...

Yes, when they first offered their Seven Years War kits, it was a real bonus. There weren't any other such figures on the market at the time. You had to track down Rose kits or old Staddens. The British and French infantry are nicely sculpted and cast, with crisp detail. And the British...

I've always hoped that they'd add more cavalry, especially from the Seven Years War. A British dragoon, light dragoon (like the 15th LD), and Horse Guard would be nice, and a French heavy, a dragoon, and a hussar. There are figures from other brands for those subjects, but it would be nice to...

The Tradition kits are really good ones, too. Nicely sculpted and crisply cast, and they paint up well. Prost! Brad

Hi, Bob! You might want to have a look at Foggy Bottom Miniatures. He is located in New York, but sells through shows here in the East Coast, and through his eBay store...

Nice displays, Andreas! I like the 1st Foot Guard especially. I snap those up when I can, for my Seven Years War collection. The hatmen are particularly hard to find. But I'm working towards a company each of musketeers and grenadiers, and as many fifes and drums, and colors, as I can amass...

Hi, Brad! Art replied that the camels are definitely from Mike and depict the Bikaner Camel Corps. As for the cavalrymen and foot figures, he believes they are Mike's, too, but not completely certain. But along with Tom's ID, I think that's pretty good for an ID. Hope that helps! Prost! Brad

That could be. I can ask among my fellow MFCA members. I remember that there were some of Mike's toy soldiers up on eBay within the past year or so, and I didn't know he had made them. I asked Art Etchells, who confirmed it. I'll ask him. If you have seen my collection of the Kaiser's Army...

Romano sucks. That's twice now that he's given up runs and threatened a lead. Ray Romano would pitch better than Jordan. Sanchez ("Gooney goo-goo!") had a good start, though. It was fun to have switched over from the MLB channel where they were gushing about LA, to see Sanchez fan Ohtani 3...

Are they hollowcast or solid, Brad? I think the camel riders depict troopers of the Bikaner Camel Corps. Prost! Other Brad

Should have been 3-1, but Romano choked in a rough relief outing.

A big advantage to using a host is not having to worry about the specific parameters of any given forum we belong to. Prost! Brad

I thought of Fusilier, but a look through their online catalog didn't tun up any WWI Germans with gasmasks, in any pose. Neither has Tommy Atkins, nor Tradition. Sorry! Prost! Brad

You should paint a version with a Mail Pouch chewing tobacco ad on it, Ken. Prost! Brad

They promise their constituents things they want, tell them things they want to hear. Very often, that includes telling their constituents that Someone Else is responsible for the life they find themselves in. They aren't responsible themselves. That is hard for many to resist, human nature...
