    What might be coming from Conte this year?

    Re: What a great pose & equipment It looks to me as though the sword in scabbard on back is clearly a 'left hand draw" judging from the angle. While you seem to find fantasy in every thing Conte does, I think this may be the best Viking figure I've seen from any company and he seems...

    Conte's Rome at War

    Very happy to see you sharing some of these Tacitus lines with everyone as you saved me having to go look them up. They seem pretty clear and in keeping with my memory of them. The comments re furs and nakedness seem pretty direct and on point . The comment about very few wearing corselets is...

    Conte's Rome at War

    German Haberdashery I just spent a few minutes looking at the various Conte German pics which they have sent me or which have been on their site in the past year and I should point out that quite a few of the Germans do have pants. The Lt even pictured one charging with an ax overhead ( i...

    Conte's Rome at War

    Great Caesars Ghost I made no comment implying that the Roman armor was of a BC vintage nor did I in any way imply that these Romans were those of Julius Caesar's Legions. You've made that connection. I provided 3 well known and highly respected references, 2 Ancient and one modern which...

    Conte's Rome at War

    It seems you are always disputing Conte clothing choices and criticize as though you are an authority on all they have done incorrectly. I recall your finding their female sculpts too beautiful in the past. I respectfully disagree with you and am buying the Conte Barbarians as I think they have...

    Conte's Rome at War

    Very impressed with these figures , the dioramas and the photos. I ordered mine today. What is really amazong is how good they look even when enlarged on my screen. Most figures suffer and show their failings when displayed much larger than actual size but not these.{sm4}

    UPDATED NEWS: Old Toy Soldier Home, Vista, CA, is NOT closing!

    Re: Bad News: Old Toy Soldier Home, Vista, CA, is closing! Once again rumor central has gotten ahead of itself. This reminds me of when a group of plastic collectors on the Marx One List started the rumor that Paragon had ceased operation and no one bothered to check out the facts before...

    Sloppy Paint Job

    Re: Slopy Paint Job First, I can't resist stating that I am amazed that a simple customer service issue between one customer and one manufacturer could lead to such a bizarre and twisted thread. I decided to comment as I was thoroughly shocked that this argument is ongoing. Honestly, is this...

    Britains AZW - Stock Photos v ACtual Photos

    Painting looks good to me . My issue with this figure is the facial features. He does not look like any Zulu I have seen in photos . In fact he looks like the head could be a anglo painted in dark tones. Is a different sculptor doing these?
