Still and always German stuff !!!. I see that the Chinese market is indeed focused solely on the German army. We're not likely to see American, British, or Russian figurines or vehicles anytime soon. What a pity... .

Yes, I know there's a certain fascination with the German army, and this represents an inexhaustible source of money for manufacturers.

Regarding Mike and Sierra Toys, I have been a customer several times and it is true that he will be missed in our hobby.

That's true, you're certainly right about the proportion of collectors who are genuinely concerned with accuracy, that's precisely the impression I get with TFT forum. But personally, I think it's a shame to focus solely on the "toysoldiers" aspect and neglect historical accuracy, hence my...

Germans, always Germans, it's a real overdose !. And what about the other belligerents of the Second World War who still participated to some extent in the conflict ?.

It's a shame, still artillerymen in full dress and not in campaign dress.

I hope this isn't the finished War Park model, otherwise the camo is inaccurate. Indeed, from September 1944 onwards, the vast majority of KingTigers had a standardized camo scheme applied at the factory, the famous "ambush scheme". The outline of the shapes varied slightly from one tank to...

Very nice figures !. It's great to see WWII British soldiers who are, unfortunately, not very widely released by other brands. Well done to King and Country for that.

In the lucrative strategy of various brands to produce essentially German armored vehicles, I really don't understand War Park's strange choice regarding this model. Indeed, the Flakpanzer IV Möbelwagen with 2cm Flakvierling was only a unique trial model completed in October 1943 and whose...

Still only German armored vehicles !. But this time, I'm quite happy because the KingTiger is my favorite tank, especially in terms of late war elaborate camouflage painting schemes. The model looks very detailed, even more so than other brands (I don't have any models yet). I noticed a rain...

Chris, I enjoy seeing the evolution of your diorama and I particularly liked your damaged tatched roof with smoke effect. - Regarding the uniforms of the grenadiers at Waterloo, here is a testimony that can be considered as a "french primary source" : Uniform worn June 18, 1815: It is known...

I notice that you are very concerned with historical reality, and that's a very good thing. Regarding the wearing of greatcoats and blue trousers, the debate remains open, but, as they say, "show must go on", and that shouldn't stop us from doing our dioramas. Your three ranks of grenadiers are...

Yes, that's exactly it.

As for the french cavalry, I hope it will be cuirassiers, the bulk of the french cavalry at Waterloo ! ( and preferably in campaign dress: without plume on the helmet and with grey or brown pants).

Yes Dragoon, you're right, the 28th was indeed wearing the old stovepipe style shakos at Waterloo.

Chris, First of all, congratulations on your homemade scenics, they promise to be very successful. As for me, I don't think I have the dexterity to make such scenics, so I'm asking a professional to do it for me according to my plans and instructions. Regarding your two questions: -1) Indeed...

Thanks Wayne, much appreciated.

I am very impressed by your extensive knowledge of mattresses !.

If you are fortunate enough to own this beautiful set, could you please tell me the dimensions of the house (width, length, and height). Thank you in advance.

No problem, you are welcome : -1) Yes, these are the two main differences and I don't see any other since it would seem that these foot artillerymen of the guard kept the regulation long coat (and not the Bardin coat). Of course, the overcoat that was very widely worn in Waterloo is also...
