Interesting answers, thanks gents. Yes good point about making a variety of diorama's and wanting to try out that favourite figure in a number of settings...I might have to usethat as an excuse :) It seems sensible to override the collectors urge to simply "hoard" such a figure, in duplicate...

Thanks W, interesting to read your thoughts. It is always subjective of course as to what each of us thinks is impressive, and we have to go with our gut- reaction and first impression on that. Contrastingly I think the poses are natural and well done. The uniforms are plain, but accurate in...

They all look excellent - good photos ! Presumably the flag is very thin metal ? Hopefully it balances ok ?

Ps. If you feel so inclined, and you have given in to such an urge, please let me/us know what figure or set tempted you.... Cheers ! Ps mine has been the Standing Patrol AK 011.

Apologies if this is a wacky query, or one lacking in a sense of perspective, but upon seeing a set or an individual figure that you think is exceptional ( in sculpt, paintwork, fits in to your ideal collecting area etc) to what extent do you have an urge to buy it in duplicate ( just in case...

Thanks for your interesting comments, yes I understand your points, and decals on the helmets would have been welcome I certainly agree. A lot of period photos have the Ramcke troops in short sleeves so maybe that has been part of the motive too ? The latest releases look very much like a...

Yes I have limited funds and space too, but I'll be picking up the remaining Ramcke troops, as the desert is my main interest area. What do you have concerns over with these AK troops, be interested to hear ?

Hopefully the remaining Ramcke brigade FJ's, I've been wanting to pre order those for a while !

Looks great. The background/horizon looks very effective too.

Hi gents, I have picked up the Folgore 3 man fire team , and they are very good I must say. Crisp sculpting and nice paintwork. The standing figure in particular is excellent, and he was the main reason I bought the set and he looks even better in hand than in photos. Why is it that such ( or...

Nice book ! The herringbone pattern on the sword is an interesting feature, different method of course , but reminds me of the hamon on a samurai sword.

The poses and sculpting are great it must be said.... Getting any closer to those elusive French Indo China troops ? You know you want to Andy....chuck in a few Denison smocks and you're nearly there !

The fairly New figure JN030 , charging Flagbearer, would go really well in here, one of the best K & C figures I've seen ( and own ) . Good to see collections set up this way.

It'll be a Sumo tournament range next ! {sm4}

Looks great ! Fine display, some great action poses in these sculpts.

Cheers Andy, yes I fully understand all that, and it's a good point, I'm thinking of the aesthetics of a diorama display really. Looking forward to seeing more, including more fighting Japanese...and casualties. I think this range of Japanese is excellent, and will be adding these bit by bit to...

Very interesting and very well put together scene...although I personally think the surrendering troops would look better ( and sell better) if they still had uniforms and bits of equipment on... torn, battered, but still on them. I know there are photos of surrendering Japanese like that , but...

Fantastic scene, well done !!

Sounds a wonderful day, good stuff ! Yes you have to savour days like that and remember how lucky we can be. All the best from an icy England ( where I too had fish and chips today at our local "gastro pub" washed down with good ale) !
