Fantastic. What an incredible piece of work. Thanks for sharing. Eric

The first K&C figure I purchased was MK011 and I was hooked. If they were to abandon the Crusades line - which I most seriously doubt - I might ditch them altogether in protest! :mad::p:D It seems to be a popular line - and the finest K&C line in my possession, I don't own any of the Crimean...

So, you're saying Rob's post are a bit like reverse botox? :p:D

I must take my pie as it is due - straight to the kisser! I must also take into account one of my favored lines - Crusaders and Saracens - took a hit and I shall volunteer to eat the entire humble pie. :(:D

I'd take Monday in the pool - chase away the Monday doldrums with a dispatch.

Welcome to the forum! The WWI figures are superb - I haven't purchased any yet since I've dipped my toes in so many lines already - the Uhlans are pulling hard, though. You'll find a great bunch of folks on the forum so I am sure you will enjoy yourself. One bit of advice, read every post...

Well done. What do you use for the grass? I like how you blended the bases with the ground cover and the stray blades of grass on the curraissier's sword is a nice touch. My soldiers are in my home office as well but not as well displayed as yours I fear. :o Eric

Wow, great work Shiloh. A very nice, rustic look to them. Well done. Eric

When I was hunting down my KGL figures I found NA71, NA72 and NA76 to be the most difficult to find - especially NA76. I joked with my wife last night that between the KGL and 71st figures I basically had in value the entire amount I have spent on my entire collection thus far. :D I think it...

Well then - no call to arms can be ignored! Firstly, I must say I am quite happy when my pieces go up in value. In fact, if the diecast armor and aircraft I used to focus on weren't pulling in solid prices I wouldn't have quite as many figures as I now do. Naps and Crusaders are my primary...

I graduated from the mid-size state supported university Pat worked for those many years... :D but now I am an application engineer (read computer geek) for one of the the big three telecoms.

Good news, PB. I just allowed myself to be swept into the JJ world a month or so ago and I am sold - wonderful figures. I can't wait to add more of them - especially the BOS line.

Snowshoes is my first JJ series and I am nearly finished with it so I'll probably pursue Monangahela next - as far as I can at least. Eric

Hello pwalms and welcome to the forum! I'm not sure about past and present plans with the WWII lines as I am mostly Napoleonic and Crusaders in regards to K&C. However, I can say that repainting the figures will decrease their value as far as collectiblity goes since most collectors want the...

I do something similar though I keep mine in Rubbermaid storage bins so I can keep them in closets, the attic or the garage - watertight and impervious to light. :cool:

Fantastic figure, Pat. I can't wait until my checkbook catches up with my taste! Eric

I must say that is the most incredible figure I have ever seen - and it cost more than my car! :D Beautiful, simply magnificent. Eric

The final post of the thread, perhaps - but my Kansas Jayhawks are National Champions!!! I am pumped - I took the day off and kept the boys out of school to meet the team in the football stadium. It was cold and raining but over 30,000 fans joined me in welcoming our boys back to Lawrence...

Oh boy, I can imagine! We here in Lawrence, KS see a fair bit of celebration after KU making several Final Fours the last 6 years and I am sure it is pure bedlam in St. Louis. Fortunately, Lawrence is a mellow hippy town so the police have it pretty easy in the opinion of my friends on the...

Holy schneikes! How long is the "swimming" season in Pennsylvania! I remember something my dad always said, "A man needs two kinds of friends - one with a boat and one with a pool." He had a buddy with a pool but he filled the role of friend with a boat. There are a lot of benefits to a...
