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

    Gee Warrior, thanks for the kick in the junk. :o:D The "20 years" reference is based on the resignation of the Chiefs' GM Carl Peterson on Monday. When he took over the team after the 1988 season he said he had a 5 year plan to reach the Super Bowl (named by our founding owner Lamar Hunt, by...

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

    Sick is being a Chiefs fan. How do you give up 14 points in the last 74 seconds to a team you dominated all day? They keep finding new ways to lose every single week. Thank goodness the GM Carl Peterson finally resigned today (before he got fired I think). 20 years is too long to not even...

    2009 rumor mill

    Hmm, fits in the movie theme and does star a former Beatle so it ties into a past set a bit. You might be on to something, Dave.:D Eric

    Favorite Bands

    Good stuff - interesting to see who I have similar tastes to and seeing a few bands I hadn't thought of in awhile. I am all over the place but my favorites would be: Metallica Ozzy Osbourne Judas Priest Savatage/Trans Siberian Orchestra Van Halen (David Lee Roth era) AC/DC Guns N Roses...

    new dispatches

    I'm not certain about permission being requested but it does pose an interesting question. It would be neat to have the box or a certificate signed by General Rall with the figure on a limited basis so as not to drive the cost up for those who do not want it, of course. I have a very fine...

    What are the Forum members reading

    I just finished Slash written by Slash and Anthony Bozza. A surprising and interesting read if you are into that era of rock (as I am). I am now reading Open City: True Story of the KC Crime Family by William Ouseley. I am a bit of an organized crime buff as well and this is the story of my...

    Club Figures..subjects?

    Cantinetozzo- I agree the Collector's Club figures are fantastic. I'm not entirely certain how they are chosen but they often foreshadow a future line - earlier club figures included a Crusader Crossbowman, a WWI soldier, etc prior to thos lines being launched. As to when another batch...

    your favorite Halloween costume???

    My favorite costume would have to be my son's from last year. My mom has always made his costumes - she has become quite the seamstress as a hobby since her retirement - and she made him a Lone Ranger outfit. It was the coolest thing - she even made the holsters with the silver tooling and...

    Figarti & Super Glue

    I thought it fair that I provide another update after working with TF on my issues with winter panzer. TF spoke with Figarti regarding the issue I had and Figarti graciously offered to make another hatch for me to replace the one with the disolved packing foam and distorted paint. I really...

    Figarti & Super Glue

    I'm not convinced it is the seller we choose that is the arbiter of whether or not it arrives unscathed. I use a few selected dealers and they are all top-notch when it comes to delivering the product - regardless of manufacturer -in the finest condition. I generally find that the issues seem...

    Figarti & Super Glue

    Interesting - I received my Figarti Winter PzKfpw IV today and the hatch was broken off - obviously after a previous repair attempt. The glue was sloppily applied and had run around the cupola and underside of the hatch affixing the foam to the underside of the broken hatch leaving a horrible...

    A truly new range

    I guess he didn't perceive Badolato was a Scottish surname - nor did I. I had a buddy in college named Tom Badolato and he was a Jersey Italian to the core. :D I agree completely in the sentiment this is a fantastic new range. My aching wallet doth protest but it is not to be missed. Eric

    John Jenkins Pictures Chicago

    Very nice looking new line - I am going to have to strongly consider it. I like the peek at the Rangers for the BOS line - my personal fave so far. Eric

    Cavalryman of the Lost Cause: J.E.B. Stuart

    Thanks again for the suggestion, Brad. I ordered it and hope to get around to reading it in the next year. :p Toy soldiers aren't the only thing I have a wee bit too many of at the moment. Eric
