Brad, As always, thanks for the help. [First] Lets see if I understand you correctly..... you would paint the spot with matte paint (as I have no glossy), and then cover it with a gloss coat. Correct? I am not sure what "Future Floor Wax" is, but I am assuming that is a gloss coat. Where...

I have a glossy painted metal figure that apparently had a crack in his paint which caused some of the paint to chip / crack and fall off. Fortunately, this was only in one spot on his arm (the elbow), and is towards the back of the figure. He now has an unpainted, or bald, elbow and I want...

I know this has been posted on the forum before, but I am asking again (due to the fact that those other posts don't seem to have the info I am looking for). Has anyone seen Al-Qaeda, Taliban, Terrorist, Insurgent figures? I don't really care if they are plastic or metal, painted or...

What sets are you referring to (exactly)? Thanks!

Thanks to Cardigan600 for the original post (with pics from the book). As you can see from this thread that I started here: http://www.treefrogtreasures.com/forum/showthread.php?26164-Help-Finding-Irish-Troops-1916 these photos you posted will be very useful to me. I started that thread in...

Cnq WOW...those are great!

Great to see that I can mix my two passions (College Football and Toy Soldiers) at this forum.

Some of you are probably wondering why I titled the thread as "Irish Troops 1916" but just posted about Irish Troops circa 1922. Well, after I realized that I did this, I figured I should post a follow-up. I am ALSO still working on finding the right figures (1:32 scale) that I can convert...

Well, its been about a year but I am back and am continuing this thread/discussion. I think I have found a pretty good solution to creating/converting my IRA / Irish Volunteer Army. I found that Airfix makes a "1:72 Scale WWI British Infantry Figures Classic Kit Series 1." I believe these...

I really hope these threads never go away. They are full of information that I reference and look back on. If this thread were to disappear, I would really be out of luck!

Great idea. It didn't originally have a base, but I will most likely add one now. If nothing else, it will make it more "sturdy." Good to know that drilling such a small hole is common. I haven't started this project yet (obviously) but I have been wondering how I would drill a hole into...

Soldiers I collect: - American Civil War: CSA - WWII: Germany - WWII: U.S. - Military School Cadets (Texas Aggies, West Point, Citadel, etc.) - College/University Figures - Irish Volunteers (1916) - Texas: Alamo, etc. Individual Figures: - William B. Travis - Michael Collins - U.S. Army JAG...

Has anyone seen a toy soldier/figure of a US Army JAG Officer? I know, that is kind of a random question. I have considered simply finding a US Army military officer (without gun, etc.) and re-painting the officer insignia and/or brass. However, while I am confident that I could do at...
