    Connoisseur Figures

    I agree we need a category for these specifically (I think I started this thread a long, long time ago with that in mind - haha). I wouldn't say it is because TF doesn't carry them as they have other categories for lines they don't carry but I believe we have shown the interest is there to...

    Figarti and Fragility

    I've only purchased 1 Figarti (until the winter 88 and prime mover) and it had issues. When my Winter Panzer IV arrived the commander's cupola hatch was broken off and had obviously had a botched repair attempt as the foam packing was melted to the underside (top relative to the displayed...

    The Little Bighorn

    Mark - I too have read this book and I found it to be very engaging and not the least bit dry. Then again, I'm not exactly an authority on what makes a history book lack a "dryness" factor since I'll read most any history tome I come across and expect most of them to be rather lacking in...

    K&C Online Collector Club

    I agree with NJJA. I have been a member since my entry into the hobby almost 3 years ago and I truly enjoy the packages arriving from HK with my new brochures and Collector magazines. All of the collectors figures I have purchased from HK are top notch and much appreciated in my collection...

    best war museums

    The National World War One Museum in Kansas City, MO is incredible. It was originally created as the Liberty Memorial Monument and was dedicated on November 1, 1921 and was attended by Lieutenant General Baron Jacques of Belgium; General Armando Diaz of Italy; Marshal Ferdinand Foch of France...

    Empire: Total War - New PC game!

    Great series - always anticipated on my part. I started back with TW Shogun (I hope they revisit this as they did the Medieval era) and have eagerly awaited Empire. So far, I absolutely stink but the great thing about this game is that it has legs and is playable for a long, long time without...

    BCS Games - time to pick 'em

    The one game I WANTED the Big XII to lose! KU and MU don't care for eachother in the least. :D Northwestern played well, however. Very entertaining to watch. Eric

    BCS Games - time to pick 'em

    Props to the Gators - I was pulling for the Sooners as a Big XII fan but Florida proved it on the field so congratulations to them. Personally, my vote would go to Utah for going undefeated and beating the long-time #1 Alabama handily but that is why we call for a playoff. As to the slant of...

    BCS Games - time to pick 'em

    Hey, my Jayhawks held up their end of the bargain as the 7th team out of the Big 12 - 42-21 over UM! I was surprised by how the south teams have played thus far as I saw all of them (the bowl teams) play in person this year and thought were we all solid - not heads and soldiers above anyone...

    Greatest Baseball Player

    Absolutely - I agree. I would definitely name him in my top 5 of "my" era watching baseball. One of the few guys who wasn't on one of "my two teams" that I kept every single baseball card of because I loved the way he played the game. Eric

    Greatest Baseball Player

    The greatest ball player of my time as a fan would be Ken Griffey, Jr for me. Before the injuries and then age started taking its toll he was an incredible joy to watch. Five tools, exuberant love for the game and a fantastic ball player in an era with a number of great players. I would have...

    football season is here!!!!!!!!!!

    Well, I lost last week when McNabb and the Eagles couldn't score just 1 more TD in their numerous trips into the red zond and he was finally sat early in the 4th with the game well in hand. I lost by 3 points which, in my league, 1 TD, 60 yards of passing or 30 yards of rushing (not likely on...

    football season is here!!!!!!!!!!

    Warrior - I thought I would be torn between wanting to win and wanting a higher draft pick but when the game started last week I just wanted a win. When I'm not watching a game I tend to think in terms of the future but when I watch it and get emotionally invested (again, hehe) I want a win...
