    What Toy Soldier items Have You Acquired in The Last 2 Weeks ?

    Added to my Soldat collection, these are Portuguese cremonial figures, not my normal figures, but they looked good and they were cheap, £18 or $22 for the 5.

    You are not going to get significant manufacturing back, Musk has even not offered to bring his manufacturing to the USA. Plus there are too many People are probably doing it because that is the one of the few things they can do, it is a visual messsage. On boycotting, once again one of the...

    $600 is roughtly £480, which for me is a lot but i generally save until i need a few, I have not used TF for a while, no fault of TF, but because of the 20% i always get caught for from the US, understand where you are coming from.

    I think $600 is fair, collectors seem to forget that the parcels do not pack themselves, someone has to do it, and they have to be paid. Sorting out an individual order of, for example, 6 sets, could take up to 30 minutes, sorting the order on the computor, printing off a receipt, [if overseas...

    IMPORTS AND TARIFFS

    Agree with Horus, buying from the US and now the EU [due to BREXIT] means you do get hit sometimes for import due and costs. I try to look at it as a glass half full rather than half empty and think how lucky i was not to be caught and do not have to pay. Closing factories etc in the US and...

    Inspired by Western Outlaw

    REVWARBUFF - Impressive is the word i was going to put and what i thought when i saw the pictures, i like to think great minds think alike. I think Naval figures and sets [excluding Marines], from all countries, has been under produced in the TS market. Must be hard to think of figures and...

    I know this, but who checks [from the government] and does the custom controls, i think the US will feel it more, China still has the rest of the world so will dump cheaper stuff on us, plus the Chinese gov are not 'elected' so there will not be the political and social pressure there will be in...

    I think it will come as a shock to many in the US just how many products, processes and services are connected to non USA delivery parts, systems, etc. Living in a capitalistic system there will be higher increases than the tariff costs [by some companies], plus lots will use it as an excuse to...

    Do you know how you become the owner of a Jeep made after 2000? Just buy a bit of land, one will breakdown there eventually.

    I agree with you on cars, US cars and trucks are not as good as European and/or Japanese and Korean. Plus they are impractical for many of European places. There is a guy locally who has a Ford 150 truck and he cannot drive it down or park it in his own street and drive down may other streets...

    Well this got heated, I think time will tell, but it has been implemented poorly, sweeping overall tariffs, on Islands with no people or places like the Falkland Islands because they have big trade imbalances, as they buy very little compared to what they export to the USA. Ofcourse there are...

    King & Country Dispatches -- April 2025

    Those retiring Russians Sailors look great, never really looked at them as do not collect Russians, but may have a second look as would make really nice diroama in one of my 40cm X 40cm cabinets. Thirteen figures [could use the dead German somewhere else]. Guess that is more to add to the list.
