I don't to get really involved in this discussion, but didn't Patton state that when he visited a POW-camp with 3000 Waffen SS-soldiers? Didn't he state to release them, and drive with them to Moscow? Also, I agree with what has been said here already. We owe a gratitude to the Russian people...

When visiting the Michigan Toy Soldier Company website, I couldn't help but noticing the banner, containg a picture of a K&C-set, with "Truce" next to it. What is all that about?

And he's not the only one! Hi Blackie (Bill), welcome to the forum! Hope you learn as much and get as much as info about the hobby as I did here.

I believe the opposition in Carentan mainly consisted of Fallschirmjäger....

I agree with Oz. I'm glad that I live in a country with a good arms regulation. I don't think you shouldn't be able to protect your family or your belongings, but a gun is a bit... well, sensitive. By the way, when you get burgled, these guys aren't out to kill; they're just after your TV, or...

Congratulations, John! You manage to keep on going. I would have given up a LONG time ago...:rolleyes: :D These are of course nice ideas, but I don't think Andy is going to do this, unless he completely loses his mind...

Happy Birthday!!!

Happy birthday!!!

The Russians delivered the greatest effort in WWII to beat back the Germans. They have suffered more than any other nation in the war. So, symbolically, it's only right that they took Berlin. As for the massive scale rape of the Berlin women: do you think the Germans were courtious when they...

Thanks all! Fishhead, Yes, it's great fun! I just love playing it. But I've actually just started playing (for about a few months), so I'm not in a band yet. But a few of my friends are bound to break through in the local scene (They've actually got me started with all this), and they said I'm...

Dankuwel!!!:D Well, I think it won't be K&C this year though. I've got to get me some accessories for my guitar, like a tuner, tremelo, etc. But you might never know...:rolleyes:

Because there are two Germans. Steamboat Willie, the released private, did not kill Mellish (the stair scene), but he shot Captain Miller on the bridge. As you said, Willie recognized Upham and shouted at him. But the SSguy at the stairs looked right into Uphams face, but this German clearly did...

I believe the soldier was saying something like: "easy now, this won't take long, relax"... Oh, and thanks guys for the kind words. It's my pleasure...:)

I'm sorry, but it's just not the same guy. There is a clear difference between the two. For exemple, the first guy is from a Heer-unit, while the second one is Waffen SS. Steamboat Willie did NOT kill Mellish, but he shot Captain Miller! After that, Willie was shot by a desellusioned Upham. To...

I think the "top sellers" column is just one of Andy's "cunning plans":D (No offense, just watching Blackadder-DVD's over here). If he wants an item to sell well, he just puts it in his top sellers-list and A) people (like me:rolleyes: ) will freak out because they think stocks will be out soon...

I bought my first K&C piece at a toy soldier fair back in 2004. I believe it was DD47 (On the Beach Set A). At first, I was just looking for Del Prado, Flats, etc. But when I bumped onto K&C, I was sold. It didn't matter to me that I had to put all my remaining money in to it, I just wanted it...

Re: K&C collectorsng I too face these kind of problems. It's just awful to choose four or five sets from all the ranges I wish to collect. But hey, I've learned to live with that. Toy soldiers are not the most important thing in my life, I have other things to do and finance...

The madness has begun again!:rolleyes: John, won't you just pick one of these things for once? Maybe that'll get more result with Andy...:)

Too Funny!:D It's years, mind you!

16 now, turning 17 next month... Try beating that!:)
