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

    Brendan, it's an interesting coincidence that when I got back into toy soldiers in 2008, it was this figure that solidified my interest to collect NAPS. It had just been retired, and I sent out e-mails to dealers to see if I could find it. Of those who responded(not many), Tim Tyler was the only...

    A light-hearted and fun display

    Rich, I was unaware you were a LAX guy. We'll have to have a conversation about the wooden stick era when I see you at Louis' in 2 weeks. Tomorrow at 8am my youth league sign up, equipment handout happens. And another season begins. And yes, these figures immediately caught my eye. They were a...

    A light-hearted and fun display

    Robo, I love these figures, purchased the originals, and recently purchased 2 more double sets. I plan on creating a display with them myself. But I have to say that as someone who's been involved in playing and/or coaching the game since 1962, I do not think I will be able to capture the wonder...

    Pacific Beach Assault

    Rob, you are a photo artist extraordinaire. A delight to the eyes. I'm thinking that this could make a great background/foreground pic for another up beach dio, maybe from the Japanese figure perspective. Just a thought.........................Joe

    Thanks for the full fortress pic Joe, it's really a fine piece to use as a display. Regarding William Marshal, did he serve John as well as HenryII and Richard? The figure is beautiful. Joe

    Welcome to the Deep Freeze

    I think we got a little over 2 inches here in North Wilmington, and the streets were clear early from rising temp and bone dry by late morning. We've been lucky. Even during the cold block in Dec/Jan we were getting only small snow doses of 1 to 3". But it's still early, and I've seen snow in...

    New Releases for February 2018 - The Second World War

    This range gets better and better, the F4U Corsair with folding wings allows for many different presentations. And the wonderful color of different flight deck airman jobs makes it stand out. I won't be able to collect this range, but I will be enjoying it vicariously through all of you who...

    Advice for someone living in a region with earthquakes?

    Now isn't that a Wonderful bunch of comforting happy news Jazz..............LOL. However, I read a news blurb recently about a super volcanic cluster under Yellowstone National Park, that if erupted would threaten the earth in the same way the suggested meteor millions of years ago wiped out the...

    Advice for someone living in a region with earthquakes?

    Jim, that's a very handsome collection you have. I've been one to do dioramas, but I'm becoming impressed by the beauty of just lining soldiers up on shelves in well defined order. My compliments. Joe

    Few new Leatherneck in my Tarawa Diorama!

    Magnificent Harrie, you've really done tremendous work on this. I especially like the effect of the marine wading through the surf.

    IDF in a village

    Robo that's a real neat package of players and nicely positioned. K&C really has a winning range here. One question is what does the tan material between the jeep and tank represent? I can't make that out................................Joe

    Guard Duty

    This blows me away Duke, a thoroughly wonderful presentation, but my first thoughts were Stalag 17 with Bill Holden etc. Maybe I'm just older. Joe
