Has anyone attempted a Texas Ranger/Comanche/Mexican range? Just reading the wonderful Lonesome Dove books and couldn’t see that a specific range had ever been produced. I must admit that if someone were to produce it then the prolific JJ would personally be my first choice. Who wouldn’t want a...

.....anyone know? I liked dealing with them both. I miss them.

Does anyone find it infuriating when you can't buy items from a dealer online in this day and age? I've recently encountered two dealers that have an online presence whereby you can view the items for sale but in order to make a purchase you have to either telephone or email and trust them not...

What was the rationale behind this venture?

If anyone has any desire to visit this battlefield in the near future I would plan to do this sooner rather than later. Planning permission has been granted on the surrounding areas for an extremely large 'heritage centre' (some more sceptical people believe this to be a bit of ruse on behalf of...

i have 8 left of each of the Tom Gunn figures ROM001a and ROM005a, which I don't think are in production any longer. They cost the original price of £39 each and if you want three or more I can post to the UK for free but any interest from abroad, I will need to charge postage I'm afraid on all...

Was this just a 'toe in the water' venture and have we definitely seen the last of it?

Just trying to gauge how many people on here primarily collect Roman or ancient figures. It's always good to know who your kindred spirits are and indeed who you are up against when trying to snap them all up! I know you do Joe!

Other than crime fiction my main genre when reading is Roman history, so I thought I would try a bit of Roman fiction and the first book I saw I bought. It was Ben Kane's Hunting The Eagles. I think I may have chosen poorly because it really has put me off reading anymore from this genre. It is...

I pass in and out of the forum but I always enjoyed reading posts from Mitch, he went against the grain and not always for the sake of it! Does anyone know how he is and if he is still collecting?

If you are looking to offload any of these figures to collect something new, then please let me know and hopefully we can sort something out!

I'd like to sell this item for £80 + £5 postage to the UK (international would have to be more unfortunately) so I can reinvest in a couple of figures. I don't think its too bad a value as you get 4 figures and the barbed wire fence that comes with it. PM me if interested.

I did see last month that Sky and Amazon are combining for the first time to make a drama series incorporating the Claudian invasion of Britain in 43AD. We shall wait and see what happens! I'm hoping they will incorporate the Battle of Medway (about a 20 minute drive from where I live). For...

Just wondered if there would be any interest from FL collectors and indeed any collectors of Roman figures for a 'Mass Battle' range. The only thing I suppose is that Roman sculpts and painting may be too intricate for such a series. Would love a marching Roman series at some point but would...

I hope one day JJ will venture into this campaign. John seems to like going leftfield compared to other manufacturers and the Second Boer War is, with the passing of time, becoming a forgotten war despite the sheer scale of it. Even a handful of figures for a modest vignette would be a very...

If anyone has a spare one of any of the above knocking around please let me know. The last three I need to complete Toy Soldier heaven.

As we are going down the vehicular route with the Great War I think an Austin Armoured Car would be a welcome addition primarily because we have already gone down the Amiens path. This should please Australian collectors as the 17th (Armoured Car) Battalion were attached to the Australian Corps...

Before I use a free online translator and no doubt unwittingly end up asking the proprieter whether goats often mate wearing skis, has anyone in the UK bought anything from Zinnfigurenshop in Germany? I can't see that they ship to the UK and rather tantalisingly they have something I want. Has...

WB Zulu War 20086 - British Royal Artillery 7 Pound Gun and Crew "Priming The Piece" If anyone wants this piece I have a spare one. Yours for £100 including postage (UK). If you're abroad I will have to work out postage based on where you are. PM me if you are interested. Michael

I can trace my progress up until now with some clarity. Can anyone else and what was your journey? Mine was, 1) Airfix 1:72 figures (not kits) (Collected all conflicts) 2) Britains Deetail (Collected all) 3) Esci 1:72 figures (Zulu War) Long, long sabatical - booze, birds and bands. 4)...
