    Great War Collecting Preferences

    I really like the early war K&C German & British Infantry. Also, the JJD Triplane along with the "Red Baron" figure is one of my favorites. It's been hard to keep from going overboard with this range once I started it... so be careful getting sucked in Rob!^&grin

    What would you keep and what would you sell when it comes time to downsize...

    ^This... but I suppose if it ever came down to a "no choice" scenario the last toy soldiers I would part with would be my glossy naps... just too much sentimental attachment to let them go.

    Wow

    It is well worth the display space!^&cool There's something about having the two pieces combined that really make it POP! It's not terribly wide and as a static railroad set-up it would work mounted on a long narrow shelf if you had an appropriate wall space.

    Yea...it's the Holy &%#! I'm freezing out here look!{eek3}{sm4} Anyone who's ever tried to stay warm walking an OP in 2 feet of snow at 2am in the dead of winter can relate to that look! The American bulge GI's are some of my favorite WWII figures.

    That's great customer service! Picked up my first JJD plane a month or so ago and it is simply stunning. The detailing is suberb!

    MY First Legion RAH-RAH-RAH THREAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    LMAO! perhaps some secret access tunnel to your contraband hide out... right next to the moon-shine ...errr "home brewing facility"? It is rather hard to stay focused as you said. I swear every time I say...okay NAPS only ...someone like FL comes out with a release like their ACW or this new...

    Medium Flatcar ETG-045

    I kind of wish I had jumped on the Leopold railgun. Maybe an armored train? I've seen some pictures of German flatcars with 88's in what sems to be a direct fire mode on the eastern front, looks really ^&cool. Not being much of a kit basher due to lack of time and skill, not necessarily in that...

    MY First Legion RAH-RAH-RAH THREAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    MMM...I wouldn't call my approach scatter gun...maybe "dynamite fishing"{eek3}{sm4}! I stay focused... just not for very long:). Seriously though, I've seen some simply stunning collections that are centered not just around one time era like NAPS etc but even a particular battle or campaign...

    Friends, Romans, Countryman.......Roman Pre-Order!!!

    Exactly! Hollywood Romans need not apply, although a Roman dude wearing a wristwatch would be kind of funny.{eek3}{sm4} (Just a reference to the "Roman Soldiers Don't Wear Wristwatches" hollywood blooper book a few years ago...):rolleyes2:

    MY First Legion RAH-RAH-RAH THREAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Kind of my feeling but I'm a sucker for CAV so if FL releases some mounted Roman figures I'm gonna have to get a least a few of them even if they don't go with my conte. They will just be too flippen ^&cool to pass up!

    MY First Legion RAH-RAH-RAH THREAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Nothing wrong with RAH RAHing! It's great to see collectors jazzed up about their hobby{sm4}! FL is really making some great stuff, time to pick up a few more Prussians{eek3}. It's hard to believe just a few years ago (10-15 years) it seems like the choices were pretty narrow in the TS world...

    Medium Flatcar ETG-045

    I can definitely recommend this series! I hope Figarti continues to grow this line the way some manufacturers are expanding their warbird lines... really cool stuff.^&cool Brings back memories of rail-heading to Graf!:)

    Opinion on Figarti minatures (compared to King and country)

    I would agree with the above post. IMHO the figure issue has always been the biggest concern with Figarti. However I must say I really like the figures I have received with the new Moser release although they are still a tad smaller than K&C, but then again not all soldiers are the exactly 6...

    Friends, Romans, Countryman.......Roman Pre-Order!!!

    You know the saying "If you ani't CAV you ain't ...!" With all these Roman releases it looks like your prayers to Jupitor Optimas Maximus have finally paid off!

    Friends, Romans, Countryman.......Roman Pre-Order!!!

    I just might do that brother! That was a call sign of mine as an XO back in the day! I'm sure you get the connection:wink2:, god knows no one in my unit did{sm4}. I really am hoping for some mounted Legates etc...the best of both worlds Romans.....and CAVALRY! Gary Owen!

    New roman war galley announced

    I think I may hit the "go" button on this. I beleive they are looking at an end of year release so that gives me plenty of time to finish my Figarti train/Moser set-up. I think I'll try to add some of the upcoming Roman sheild wall sets as well...just have to wait and see how many. Very cool dio...
