George, I am very sorry to read of your loss. My deepest condolences to you and your family. My father passed on 15 years ago. It seems like a long time ago, but I still miss him. Raymond.

To keep this thread updated, the "Syonan Gallery: War and Its Legacies" has been hastily renamed "Surviving the Japanese Occupation: War and its Legacies" with effect from 17 February 2017. Just two days after the official opening of the museum on 15 February 2017 (75th Anniversary of the Fall...

Dear Gary, Thank you very much for posting photographs of your excellent SOHK collection. Yes, the Chinese Lunar New Year of the Rooster commences on the 28 January 2017. I sincerely appreciate your kind wishes for this important celebration. All the Best, Raymond. :)

Hi Andrew, Thanks very much for sharing your excellent display. The layout is most impressive. Best wishes to you and your family for the twelve days of Christmas and the New Year. All the Best, Raymond. :salute::

Hi Harrie, Thank you for sharing your excellent Singapore Jungle Diorama. You put in a lot of time and effort to create a very realistic jungle scene. Great Job !!.....Thanks again. All of the Best, Raymond.:salute::

Brad, K&C glossy Camel Corps very well restored and repainted. Thanks for posting. Raymond.

Hi Martyn, Thanks very much for your valued input. I managed to get some boxed Trophy Camel Corps sets (Life Guards in the light blue-grey jackets) on eBay back in 2007/2008. Despite frantic bidding, I don't recall having to fork out more than USD$150.00 per set. When compared to the...

Brad, I agree that the later Trophy Camel Corps sets tend to sell better than the earlier ones. If my observation is right, the sets with bases attract more competitive bidding. I have a personal preference for the sets with bases (more full bodied sculpting and more stable...IMHO)...

Singapore Armed Forces Commandos in ceremonial dress on parade.

The versatility of figures.....JN020 Ground Crew Set#1 on a SOHK samphan.

I have no close-up pictures of the German motorcyclist, but here is another shot anyway.

Many thanks to Chris for starting this thread with his photographs that have just about covered it all. I shall just add one or two miscellanous pictures.

A very interesting and unique display of the French campaign in Indo-China post-WWII. I like the champagne cork board painted in tri-color. Thanks, Raymond.

Chris, Well done. You are one Happy HA HA dude. I am impressed with the tanks, even for a non-AFV collector. Raymond.

IMHO, with the retail sector being what it is now in Singapore, I think it will be some time before we see another toy soldier/military miniature shop here. Raymond.

Hello Lawson, A warm welcome to Forum. You may find this thread of interest. It can be found in the King & Country sub-forum not far below yours entitled "Where to get King & Country miniatures in Singapore?" Both you and your son would enjoy the King & Country "Gathering of Collectors"...

I like this one. We don't see many displays of this series. Thanks, Raymond.

Brad, I agree again. With momentum of the latest win and good luck, Wales can do it. Most importantly, they playing as a team and that is what it is needed win. Chris Coleman seems to be doing a fine job with the team in Euro 2016 after taking over upon the tragic death of Gary Speed in...

I agree Brad. The defensive wall that the Welsh players put up in the 6 minute of play was awesome. In a space of less than 30 seconds, they successfully warded off at least 3 to 4 shots on target. However, I am not sure how they will do against Portugal. Raymond.

I have been following EURO 2016 since it started about 2 weeks ago. The Group Stages have just been completed and the Round of 16 is set to begin. Some of the best matches are scheduled at 3.00 am local time, so I have missed a few. It is always tough on sleep when it comes to EURO matches...
