Growing up on the southside of Chicago I am fan a White Sox, normally, I do not care if the Cubs win or lose. However, I am rooting against the Cubs. This city will be insufferable if the Cubs win. The Cub fans are a pain and I hate seeing that stupid W flag the fans fly every time the Cubs...

Most of the Trophy sets being sold in the room were available at the show. I left the show at noon and there were plenty of Trophy sets left. The Zulu sets were not rare sets, as for the Crimean and Sudan sets I have no idea if they are rare sets or not. Most of the sets were priced over $200...

I saw the Vikings for the first time at the show and walked away with VIK 2, 8a and 10. Brian

King X has reissued all of their exclusives. I was able to pick up a few I missed put on. So if you are missing any give King X Toy Soldiers a call. Brian

I was strolling around the show with Hawkeye. Sadly, no Trophy finds that I needed. I did one last walk around the the rooms today and many of the Trophy sets were still there. Still looking for some pack mules. Brian

Re: What else you collect,beside toy soldiers I remember playing Strat O Matic Baseball. My friends and I would order the entire league set. We also played the Football and Basketball versions. Those cards use to drive me nuts, Homerun 1-19, Fly-out 20. Ii seems I would always pick 20. Brian

I was going to sit back and watch the 1/30, 1/28, 1/32, or whatever scale debate. But Thanks to George hijacking this thread. I am now going to have to watch a debate about the scale Costanza's shrinkage. Brian

Welcome to the forum. What part of Illinois are you from?

I feel for you too. I bent over to pick my shoes and my back went out. I had to crawl to the kitchen table to get upright. It has been a week and a half, but I can walk without pain again. It happens to me about every eight months or so. Brian

Vienna Beef Hot dogs are the best. Portillos uses them but so do most Chicago Hot dogs stands.

I agree with Tom you must find a Home Run Inn (HRI) pizza. I grew up two blocks from the original HRI on West 31st in Chicago. The best pizza in the world (IMHO). I still get it about once a month. I remember when HRI was a small place with a bar, a couple of tables and the kitchen. The frozen...

Have not watched any of the Olympics yet. I am just glad that Chicago did not win the right to host it. Brian

Hoping for a battering ram for the crusader series. If not now at least sometime in the future. Brian

Great news, I better get one more tower and wall section before they are gone. Now how about a battering ram.{sm4} Brian
