    2016 Chicago show.

    I agree with Tom you must find a Home Run Inn (HRI) pizza. I grew up two blocks from the original HRI on West 31st in Chicago. The best pizza in the world (IMHO).

    k&c price increase

    Nobody likes to pay more for a product they enjoy. However, every company needs to make a "Return on Investment" (ROI) and how much that is depends on the business or person. I do not think that Andy only makes Toy Soldiers because he loves the hobby, he also needs to make a living. Everyone...

    Anyone else get an email from Conte?

    I agree with Mike, I hope Conte does start producing product again. I have a few his Viking sets and some Spartan sets. I do not understand why some on this forum are so upset with Conte. What difference does it really make if Conte says new product is coming and the product does not come as...
