I just spent 3 weeks packing all my K&C collections (since 2003) preparing room for my new born baby girl in September. Luckily I have saved all my original K&C boxes for packing
I reside in Hong Kong, and BTW the new K&C shop sales lady provide superb service!
Oh! I notice a big difference between JJ and K&C, one company has put much more efforts, thoughts and talent in producing new poses and never reusing them in other figures (i.e. In another series). The other company recycles the same stuff-looking pose in other series.
Its sad to learn that the CRW Crimean War Line has not been selling well. There are still many significant characters and troops not yet been produced, and seems like we will never see any new products from this line in 1/30 ever again!
In the left lower corner of the photo, is that the OLD Arnhem street monument or a Re-Released version? I hope we can get a new French WW1 soldier monument!
Guys
Heard from Andy that we are getting some French Cavalry this year.
I m really looking forward to that.
Since Kronprinz just released Hussars, and from my observation the toy soldier industry produces cohorts of similar types by various companies within a short period of time...
I am...
In my opinion, this batch of cavalry sculpts are the best that K&C produced
I recalled Andy mentioned that the is the same sculpter that made the K&C UK exclusive crimea war 17th lancers. The proportion is just perfect for its scale, and the action poses are very convincingly realistic! These...
I recall K&C has released a few sergeant pilots in 1st and 2nd badge of RAF products. I am particularly hoping for an intelligent officer made similar to 'Skull' Skelton of Hornet squadron in the TV series "Piece of Cake," a white peak cap RAF police and a WAAF dispatch rider.
I am also very disappointed that the cannon is made of plastic, yet the cost is not reduced. I wonder what's the use for Andy to make so much $ profit margin?
Some compliments and criticisms:
Nice diorama piece! The facade is a good option for limited display space
French napoleonic soldiers: poses are very very similar to the retired French grenadiers, and the backpacks are missing. Also less painted details on shakos/uniform. I know K&C can...
I have bought the russian gun in Hong Kong
The gun material is very light, feels like plastic
I wonder if anyone has received it yet?
Do you think it is made of plastic instead of polystone???
I just bought a togukawa camp set from ebay SCA50T. I am most impressed the the quality. Egozinc, would you send me some of your very nice East of India Samurai collections photos? I remember you used to have very nice diorama displays at home.
The last time I spoke of John Jenkins in Hong...
for companies that produce figures in the price range of US$30-40/figure, my ranking (in terms of sculpt and paint quality) as follow:
John Jenkins
K&C
Kronprinz
TG
Del prado/Hachette (those produced by K&C)
Figarti
Collectorshowcase
W. Britains
PS First Legion is out of that price range
