    Hey Brian. Hear the Chicago show went well. Got my Polish Lancer yesterday. Wow. Keep going as long as you can at making these. They are outstanding figures. I felt like a surgeon trying to take them out of the box, I didn't want them to break or bend in any way. Need a new shelf. Maybe build a...

    TSSD Rangers and Indians? Styled after Jenkins?

    They are Jenkins! Anyone seen the latest releases from TSSD - Indians and Rangers? See if you can recognize the figures. I'm sure any of those familiar with John's early Frontline sets will get a shock out of it. TSSD has created molds of the early Frontline stuff and made them into a line of...

    Painting?

    John is first and foremost a wargamer. He has an incredible collection of 15mm figures - and remember he started with the 28mm Japanese figures and buildings that you see on his site. The first few FIW sets had a very "scaled up" wargame figure look and painting style which he has gotten way...

    Polish lancers: Our newest release

    Received mine as well today. Wow! I think they deserve a special shelf all their own. None of this Ikea crap. Might have to hit the antique stores for something suitable. Amazing figures. The action and the detail is phenomenal. It's like taking a full diorama right out of the box. Keep up the...

    Calculating !!!

    Step 1: Find a blueprint of Fort Willaim Henry!!! --- Found it!!! As Mark mentioned I had a section of Fort William Henry built for me once at 40mm for some wargame figures - the Miniature Srvice Center built it from some computer drawings I had based on actual blueprints. It did sell to Mr...

    Concentration? Current ranges?

    If Brian and CS took on anything FIW I would be eternally grateful. Just give me a full line of British, French, Indians, Highlanders and Rangers and I'll make my own battle dioramas. I can't imagine how good a series on that conflict would look in the hands of CS. The action, the accuracy, the...

    New range

    Hopefully John has taken on some additional sculptors? I can't imagine the poor guy starting yet another range when the Culloden and 1812 series are still so sparse and him being a one-man army? I don't think I'm anywhere near a full-on Highland charge yet, or a full British line. Same goes for...

    Concentration? Current ranges?

    Just what I wanted to hear. "Unleash the Visa!". Thanks for actually being part of tis forum as well instead of just reading it, or trying to stay anonymous. You get my vote just for that. Zulu I look forward to, as well as the ACW - more cavalry yes please, dismounted action as well. Rush's...

    Concentration? Current ranges?

    Lots of love for CS. My shelves will be overtaken with CS anytime soon. However... unlike some manufacturers... what is the situation on the lifespan of certain lines? What I mean is if you started with a line like the Zulu Wars and there are only a handful of Zulus and British available, is...

    Polish lancers: Our newest release

    Great. Now that we've got that cleared up are we going to see any Scots Greys? Maybe based on Scotland For Ever by lady Butler? Any of the Greys would be good as it will allow my Polish Lancers some targets for those lances and left-handed carbines. Speaking of dioramas... and here's being...

    Got my Polish Lancers on order and all the shelf space cleared and ready to go. Next is the Cuirassiers while they're still around. You keep going you're going to get me interested in WWII even. Those tanks are out of this world. Mus... musn... musn't... Don't ever stop. Cheers, michael

    New to Collectors Showcase - what's retired?

    Thanks again guys, you've been great help. I'm okay with scale changes - works fine in dioramas - I just put the smaller ones toward the back for perspective. I don't collect K&C or Conte and Britains for that matter although they do produce some nice figures. I look forward to many, many, many...

    New to Collectors Showcase - what's retired?

    The Polish Lancer got me interested and now I'm hooked. The ACW was a natural but I was shocked to think they had already sold out and moved into Ebay territory. Ill start with the dealers now that I know they may still be out there. The computer side of toys has long been the action figure...

    New to Collectors Showcase - what's retired?

    Thanks for the info. I had bought the Polish lancers and when I went to look into the ACW sets I noticed that not all of them were listed. I was surprised that they might be sold out already - but not really as the quality is so good. I guess I'll have to buy em when I see em from now on. That...

    New to Collectors Showcase - what's retired?

    Hey, I just started looking at the CS ACW figures and I'm confused as to what is sold out if anything. I keep seeing different cavalry figures but not all of them are even on the CS website. Have some sold out already? Does anyone know what the full line of ACW cavalry consists of? I'd like to...
