Love to avoid Ebay. Help a guy out? I've bought some collections which have set me up with doubles on some sets. I have John Jenkins: WHRR01, Blockhouse, Log Cabin, Death of Wolfe for sale, possibly my entire Jacobite collection to date - only missing the most recent releases. For King &...

My first intention in creating a series of figures was to provide a link between all of the various manufacturers: especially Jenkins and Frontline in scale and detail. Something that would fit on the shelf alongside what we have already collected through these manufacturers. There will always...

Last of the Mohicans - at least the film - is a licensed property so there would be little chance of attempting that series based on the movie, especially if likenesses were involved. Barzso had done a great job but not sure what he paid for the rights and what legal situation the rights are at...

Hey Mark, Being a collector myself, my goal is in keeping the cost down but opening up some sets and figures that simply haven't been covered - even in the interest of my own collection. The quality of the Russian work is outstanding and I would be designing the various figures and sets myself...

If there was to be a new manufacturer of 54mm figures that specialized in the French and Indian War (besides JJ, Frontline and Tommy Atkins) within the next few months - Russian quality sculpting and painting - what would the most desired figure line(s) consist of? Being a member of this forum...

Hi Mark, I have a friend who will be contacting you. I have all the sets otherwise they'd be in my collection by now. Are they still available? All the sets? He should be contacting you today. If he doesn't and you still need or want to sell them just let me know I can always use diorama...

Hey Bill, Did the action figures of Lord of the Rings ever appeal to you? I have quite a few of those as extras. Some incredible detail and poseability. Be happy to sell them off as they take up quite a bit of room in my basement. Cheers, ssorc1

Hey Michael, The dealers have been awesome - all around the world. A call to any one of them would get someone the answer they need before heading off to Ebay or even bothering to consider the bloated options they have. I have noticed a recent trend however... for some sellers... to place the...

Bought my QR01 from the Antique Center in Gettysburg for $92 about a month ago. Apparently now it's worth $250... to someone. Hate to be the poor uninformed guy that pays that without doing his research. Also had a collector I know pay $250 for a single figure I picked up for $81. Other than...

Thanks Wraith. I hadn't though of sandpaper so much as I worried about maybe losing some of the detail but perhaps a very light grade and a very light touch would do the job nicely. I tend to dry brush everything but it always works so much better when the surface underneath has some "teeth"...

Thanks for all the info on foam and what to paint it with. Is there a way to undercoat the foam once the model is built to enhance the paint and maybe give the foam a bit more of a gritty texture? If I was building a stone fortress wall and I wanted to create a rougher texture is there some kind...

Noticed you didn't have any friends listed yet. Not sure you want them or need them but I thought I'd add myself. Cheers, ssorc1

Being a Canadian and growing up in a city and province that was 50% french regarding it's inhabitants: schools, language (French is mandatory in Canadian schools and Government jobs), certain areas of the city only recognized French etc. etc. I am not surprised at all. It would be akin to the...

Thank you both very much for the quick and helpful reply. I doubt I will have them repainted as they were my grandmothers but I would like to have the lances repaired. Cheers, ssorc1

I have a set of Bengal Lancers from 1922 and I am looking to restore them. Two of the lance tips are missing and there are paint chips on all of the figures. Does anyone know of a repair service? Should the soldiers be re-painted? Does anyone know of a company that puts out replica boxes...
