    Where Do We Go From Here?

    Your absolutely right Rob. Nobody is making Brit Para's as good as these right now. There are some excellent releases amongst the second batch as far as i can tell. For me, i'll just stick to the two figures i've already decided i'll be buying. Yes, they're overpriced - and yes i'll moan about...

    June dispatches

    Hoping for the second batch of MG releases - the only ones i'm interested in buying will be amongst these i reckon . Apart from that i'd like to see more LAH - in particular the annex buildings to go with the HQ they released recently.

    Arnhem.

    Looks like there are some nice figures amongst the second batch of releases - the advancing figures and kneeling Bren gunner in particular. Hope there are plans for a John Frost figure - don't see him here. Would also like to see Irish Guards CO Joe Vandeleur portrayed at some point (movie buffs...

    Arnhem pathfinders now available to buy

    They do look very nice - thanks for posting. However, I have to agree with Mitch - I cannot see anything which justifies the steep price hike. Good luck to anyone who can afford to collect them all - for me, i'll pick up one (maybe two) of these at some point. I'm interested to see what gets...

    Does anyone make 1/32 road blocks to go with guard boxes?

    Reality in Scale make one. They're based in Holland. http://www.realityinscale.com/epages/61537336.sf/en_US/?ObjectPath=/Shops/61537336/Products/35066

    Brand Loyalty

    I'll buy from whichever company produces the ranges I'm primarily interested in collecting. With FL its Stalingrad. With K&C its LAH. As long as these two companies keep producing quality, and they're within my budget, I'll keep collecting them. Having said that, I'm not a completist - I don't...

    Are King & country changing.

    The details in the sculpts and painting seem to improve slightly which each release - with the ranges I collect anyway. You'd expect this really and its reflected in the price increases we see almost monthly. However, my collecting budget has not increased so I'm just buying less figures and...

    6Th army reinforcement!

    Nice purchase Brad. Got that one myself - its one of my favourites. Looks like he's running for cover trying to dodge a sniper bullet. These action poses are what FL do better than anyone IMO.

    Arnhem P figures. Will you get them?

    I'll buy a couple of the figures for sure - they do look very well done after all. I'd like to be able to collect this range comprehensively but the cost is beyond my means. Let's face it, you could pretty much say that about any range from any manufacturer for most of us with a limited budget -...

    Kronprinz and K&C LAH figures

    Thanks for the replies Jules and Mitch. If they're comparable in size that's good enough for me. I'll order some of the winter SS in greatcoats to start with and see how they are. If or when K&C do re-issues of the winter SS I reckon they'll cost double (at least) what Kronprinz currently want...

    Kronprinz and K&C LAH figures

    Given current K&C pricing (both new and on the retired / secondary market) I'm looking at getting a few Kronprinz LAH to add to my K&C display. The sculpts and painting look pretty good and they are very reasonably priced. Obviously they are quite different in style but how do they compare in...

    April Dispatches

    Hoping to see some personalities amongst the Arnhem releases - 'Joe' Vandeleur (Irish Guards) and John Frost in particular. Would also like to see a Russian sniper and some new LAH (annex pieces for HQ, marching HitlerJugend, and a new LAH vehicle - an SA truck would be good). Its also about...

    Museum Display of LAH and WW2 Germans for Collecting Exhibition

    Excellent work Brett. A nice overview display of Germany before and during WW2. I wouldn't be surprised if your dio attracts new collectors after seeing this in the museum. ^&cool

    Andy's Talk at 2013 West Coaster

    Thanks for the report. I'm glad to hear a Russian sniper is on the way.

    Better Pictures for Internet Purchases

    As a rule. when buying via the web without seeing the piece firsthand, the quality has usually surpassed my expectations - certainly with K&C and FL anyway. Obviously there's no substitute for seeing a piece in person before you buy if you can - but that's not always an option. The stock photos...

    What Range Would Interest You Most?

    Thanks for the info. Just checked these out - quite a large range already and some nice sets.

    Dispatches are up

    Really like the 'Dad's Army' Home Guard. I expect these will be good sellers for K&C.
