I got my 7 Carabiniers today via Sierra Toy Soldiers (skipped the one shooting on horse back) My comments: 1. First of all I bought these because K&C did not produce Carabiniers (same reason why I bought the Polish Lancers) 2. Scale: Matches very well with K&C and Del Prado (I got the Del...

Awesome! Only missing Rommel and his officers holding a meeting around the table!

I am waiting for my full set of carabiniers to arrive tomorrow!

I am disappointed that no GOOSE STEPPING LAH FIGURES are made... It's their signature move! K&C Glossy used to be goose stepping and I have a set of them, magnificent! The Collector show Case and Black hawk figures took advantage of the 'Goose Stepping' March but since I am a LOYAL K&C Fan I...

An idea for Andys Aussie business

I ve been stupid to give praise to this blue and yellow vehicle although it is totally historically inaccurate as somebody had noted before. This color scheme appeared in the battle of Britain only in the Movie! In reality it appeared near the 1950s and it's glossy not Matt

Thanks for the side by side pics! It really helps me to decide to buy the CS or not...

I was able to observe this when I was thinking if I should buy the collectors showcase Scots Grey... Does any one know if they match? I know they are similar in scale.

What a Shame! I just realized none of the Scots Grey Cavalry had saddles! They are just sitting on a piece of grey cloth! I checked out the Del Prado Sgt Ewart, even that one has a saddle! I got cheated!

Would you post a side by side photo comparing K&C with CS? I think the CS looks more greyish and K&C is matt black. Also CS seems less chunkie and slightly shorter in the photo, am i correct?

Hi Is there a lack of discussion on the CS Napoleonics? How about historical accuracy To start, did anyone get the RHA Train? Any pics? Do you think the soon to be released French Carabiniers' uniforms are historically accurate? I suppose the guy shooting the rifle on horseback is a...

I got it in Hong Kong shop It is the most detailed K&C vehicle to date

Just trying to give my perspectives here: 1. Size... they are slightly chunkier than the pervious releases (i.e. recently retired French Line Grenadiers in the pre-1812 uniform). But they blend in well. I placed mind next to the foot Dragoons... they have similar sizes K&C never mix well...

Thanks John But from my references (Osprey, Europa and Rousslet's dictionary), the Grenadier's Shako would have red chords and chervons. There maybe a short battlefield red plume on top of the pompon. However, the K&C line infantry had a short 'blue' plume surmounted on a red pompon. Any...

Also what does the color of the feather/ball on top of the shako represent?

The new french line infantry Shako had a RED top band around it. From all the reference photos I don't see a RED band except for the grenadiers. So do the new line infantry guys belong to the grenadiers and fusiliers? Thanks

Thanks for clarification of the info. I wish K&C will produce a book with photos and catalogued identifications for each and every figure that was ever designed and produced by K&C. Updated photographs from K&C's HQ in Lockhart Rd would be great! But as I understood, not even K&C has a copy...

Royal Hong Kong Regiment Flag Party

I would like to thank this forum for letting me know about two great places in France: 1. Les Drapeaux de France 2. Musée de l'Empéri which is in Salon-en-Provence http://www.treefrogtreasures.com/forum/showthread.php?13576-Toy-Soldiers-in-France/page2 1. after visiting this toy soldier shop...

I am with you on this thread, I have always wanted more ceremonial figures 1997 HK handover ceremony to China. I participated in the beating retreat farewell parade as a spectator. How about 1. Royal Navy ceremonial figures and RAF with the Queen's standard? 2. China's PLA re-do (K&C...
