Hunting Nazis - I love it!

Those sculpts look great! I'm really looking forward to the Celts - hopefully in blue. I see they're doing early Imperial Romans too - which ones are these though? I imagine they're of the Hannibal/Punic Wars times?

Early despatches!!!!!!!!!!! What will be complained about now??

Great job - thanks for posting!

I'm keen to see some more Vikings and Saxons.

I think it might be time for some more Barbarians too.

There is a movie coming about the Battle of Long Tan, Australia's biggest fight in the Vietnam War. It'll star Travis Flimmel, of Vikings fame. It's called 'Danger Close'. Pegasus Bridge, staring Rupert Penry-Jones, is in pre-production about the British glider attack on D-Day. I think I'd...

Yes, I agree - that does look great! I just saw 'The Death of Stalin' which was a reminder there are some excellent stories to be had on Russian topics.

Fascinating. I've read a couple of stories about Roman legions shifting to other eras but they were both medieval, so it was not such a contrast. I'm happy to watch any movie that results from this.

I'm optimistic! There's plenty of justification for pessimism of course but I'm ready to buy if it comes to pass. I'm particularly interested in the Viking sculpts I've seen on Facebook. I've got a nice little Britains army that I'm keen to add to. Previously I've fleshed out my Zulus/24th Foot...

Could you tell us some of his stories?

That's a great article - thanks for posting the link!

The 'B' version for me! I think there are a whole heap more to come yet too? I love the way we are getting two quite different pieces from the same pose. This will be one very impressive dio in the end!

"The film features soldiers wearing helmets with their last names on them. Although this was not accurate, director Ridley Scott used this device to help the audience distinguish between the characters because “they all look the same once the uniforms are on.”" Yep, I remember Hamburger Hill's...

I got the Celts and the 'seated' Roman today and really like them! I also had a look at a few of Jenkin's Gauls and decided that they'd work really well with the Celts - and they do! I'm really happy with the way this display is looking. I've mentioned before that I'm unhappy with the new...

I really liked it! The whole business with the casino trip was weird but a break from the real action was probably needed. I really liked the complexities shown regarding Ren. The way Luke's concluding duel was depicted also sat very well with me. There were some great scenes, particularly the...

The JJ and CS figures really seem to work well together. Lots of colour and action too!

I think this is the first time I've seen Andy in a suit? I remember reading a good history book years ago which compared casualties amongst the Allies. The key point made about the Canadians, was that even with Dieppe and Hong Kong, there were remarkably few of them taken prisoner - suggesting...

Well done PG!

Yes, I really enjoyed this too. I haven't bothered with many super-hero films lately but I was enticed by the humour - AND it was funny! The fighting wasn't overdone and the story solid (as far as they go in this genre). I found it really entertaining.
