An Abe Vigoda moment. I though Forsyth died years ago. Prost! Brad

So have you added another floor to your attic yet, @Louis Badolato ? 😁 Prost! Brad

It is a nice piece indeed! Remember our late forum brother johnnybach? I think he repainted one as the wagon from his hometown brewery, if I remember correctly. Prost! Brad

Do you mean Guard Corps, the joint venture between Ed Lober and Alan Silk back in the 90s, that produced "The Kaiser's Birthday Parade/the Alexander Grenadiers" among other sets? Or did Trophy have a line or catalog that it also called Guard Corps? Prost! Brad

Looking past the complaints and attacks in his content, I took it that he was sounding out interest if he revives the brands he now owns. But you're right, Brad, and I made the same point-if he wants to start selling his figures, talk about the castings, and avoid the negative comments, which...

Our friend is active over at Planet Figure now, too. He seems to have drawn the lesson to stick to promoting his product and avoid getting lost in the weeds about other topics. I wondered if we'd see a third incarnation here. Prost! Brad

I wrapped up some "commemorative" re-reading. For the anniversary of the Battle of the Coral Sea, I read the Osprey Campaign number on the battle-the only book specifically on the battle that I have-followed up by John Lundstrom's "First Team: Pacific Naval Air Combat from Pearl Harbor to...

Thanks for confirming, Matt! That also confirms me in my opinion that if he'd really like to start selling toy soldiers again, he should drop the complaining and attacks on others, whether they're justified or not, and focus on promoting whatever he'd like to sell. Especially given the...

I've been watching his posts since he first joined. He reminds me of "The Major", in that he's French, and that his posts talked about a series of toy soldiers he acquired and suggested that he might bring them back on the market. But he also spent a good deal of time making accusations against...

Color-coding! I love it! Prost! Brad

Hi, everyone! It just occurred to me to ask this, because I do it. I'm rereading John Lundstrom's "The First Team", and there are maps included. I find as I read passages, I want to refer back to the relevant map. It's a pain sometimes while lying on my back, book on my chest, to thumb back...

Thanks, Mike!

Thank you, Louis!

Danke, Wolfgang! Habe mit dem Vater Golf gespielt! Heut abend tue ich malen! Prost!

The post you replied to is over 16 years old. I don't expect you'll get a reply.

Thanks, I thought they might be, but it's nice to know for sure. Prost! Brad

You beat me to it, John! I had the same thought. Prost! Brad

I really like it when people post images online and include captions or other info, and don't buttume that everyone viewing knows what the depicted items are. And when someone is offering toy soldiers for sale, or to ask for identification, he includes things like shots of the undersides of...

Please forgive my ignorance, but who made these? Prost! Brad

So, what are some of the pieces you're using, Vic? That is, are the pieces from particular makers, eg, Historex horses, etc? Particular brands you find best, most useful? Prost! Brad
