Damian ,
I am not sure ? at a Guess I would say it could come down too sponsors trying to gain a bit of
extra exposure with a little controversy [ the AB,s having adidas as our main sponsor and England Nike].
To me It just didnt look like an English team so is a bit of a misfire imo .
The...
Great to see it kick of last night , The scots just sneeked past Romania today.
The weather is looking OK at the moment in Wellington for the Boks versus Wales tommorow
which should be a good game.
I,m taking my boys to see Scotland play Argentina so that will be my first RWC game.
Go the AB,s...
We have got tickets for the Final , so hopefully the AB,s can end a very long drought .
My better half is from the lucky country so it should make an interesting game if both
NZ and Aus make the final :) .If not I just hope its a decent game of running rugby.
Great Scenes thanks for posting them , it really brings the figures to life .
I guess the figure in question would be hoping the glare from his backside
catches the French Cavalry like deer in the headlights :D.
Very true , more than once when I was piecing the order for these guys together I added and then removed a Roman figure [just to have a look of course :)] .
But having seen the image of the new French figures on FL,s homepage and with a fair few Naps still to get I am glad my paper thin resolve...
Rapt to have the new Scots arrive yesterday , I think 270 is still my favourite of this bunch
and an honourable mention goes to the figure showing the French a bit of cheek :p.
Just have to chip away now and add a some depth especially the kneeling figures for
the front rank.
Its good to hear the reviews and see photos from the guys who have bought these,
I never really thought I would collect Romans but when ever I visits FL,s website
after checking out the NAPS these are the next range I take a gander at.
Super looking figures , not an era that I would jump into
but with so much other great stuff from FL I,d like, that is
not a bad thing for the bank balance .
We are fairly fortunate as collectors in this part of the world for now ,because with the decline in value of the $US that has softened the blow of rising prices .
When I started collecting I could pretty much double the shelf price of anything
by the time it landed here so I can share the pain .
That figure looks like a good conversation piece ;) , you would have to be a good keen man to expose your backside with swords/ lancers and all that lead flying around .
Good news on the Gordons , First Legion now shows the latest figures
as being in stock . Realy looking forward to seeing them in the flesh
particullarly the wounded vignette.
Thanks , yes the mirror on the back gives me two for the price of one :smile2:.
[makes it hard to take photos mind you] .The line infantry are such cool figures
I,m rapt First Legion did a secound run of these guys or I would have missed the boat on most of them.
