I am looking for the FIW tents that Jenkins released several years back. There were two sets, one set had two less detailed tents and the other set had one tent with some equipment hanging from one of the tent poles. I don’t care if they are out of the box, scratched, or chipped. Thanks, Matthew

Yes, I liked the long trench and the amount of detail that your eye can wander around on. Also, pretty cool on the job. :) Matthew

I just ordered some of the new Saratoga figures from John Jenkins. It’s been a while since I ordered because I am keeping my collection limited the colonial America.

I think my wallet would not like this idea. But seriously, I don’t know how he could with being a one man show and all of the the current ranges his does. But it would be cool. Maybe after ww1 ranges ends?

Nice diorama. I like the location of the camera. But more impressive to me is that you did this at work! I could never have even a set up of soldiers, let along take the time to set up and take pictures of a cool diorama.

I want to do Chicago this year as well. I have some SUDAN Figures I want to sell, having never gone too deep in the range, they are just taking up space and I can use the money for the new stuff from John this year. Not sure if it is cost prohibitive to do a dealer room/table. I also have the...

George, Chris drops my figures all the time. It’s why I have thick, soft carpet with a really think pad. Jenkins early French marching fall from his hands may times. Know he just jabs the bayonet into his fingernail and launches the figure as he moves his hand away in pain. I must say...

I am blessed with a wife who is also interested in military history, wargaming, and such. She knows what the prices are. I too do not care what happens with my collection of all my various size soldiers, though I am pretty sure my son will take them. As for sorting out the figures and boxes...

Ok, I hear you all loud and clear.:salute:: I shall keep the boxes. Now, how do I get rid of my wife’s large shoe collection to store more boxes? :rolleyes2: Wait, my wife doesn’t collect shoes. :( Seriously, thank you all for your thoughts. It’s why I like to post here on the forums...

Well, I have been collecting since 2006. Over the years I have been storing the boxes in the garage. I am running out of storage space for the boxes. I don't sell my figures too often, so things are piling up. What do all of you do who have large collections do? Where do you store the...

I do a lot of historical wargaming in 20 and 28 mm. I would say on average 3 USD per figure. Some are higher and some lower based on figure brand, the quality of the paint job and plastic vs metal. Unlike the toy soldier collecting, where you can sell, for the most part, a figure for what you...

I would think that even the Indians wearing a FIW jacket would be fine. It could have been passed down from father to son. I don't know for sure though. I mix mine in and it looks good to me.

Maybe the original past meant, any news on the figures being in the shops for sale yet? Some of the announced figures in the links above are still pre-order.

I am so excited by this new range. I like that we can expand our civilian population. The animation in the poses are fantastic.

I got an email as well. Looking forward to what he has in store for us.

I just noticed the blood drops on the back of her base. Nice touch.

I have insurance on my collection. It's under my homeowners insurance along with the paintings and jewelry. I pay extra on top of my regular home owners insurance, but it is all lumped into the mortgage payment, so I don't "see it" as an additional payment. I'm in the US and have State Farm...

I just took a look at the ebay seller - 734toddb - and he has some recasts of some of the Conte building and walls. Not all of his stuff is, but there are a few that stand out as Conte. For me, it was space and scale. I sold off my entire Conte collection to make room for some buildings that...

Is John doing the club figures anymore? I thought he stopped. Matthew

John has always been very generous. Even way back at the start. Matthew
