    How To Clean your K&C?

    I just dunk them in soapy water, then rinse. Blow the water off, then off to the display case. Simple.

    a little preview of My battle of the bulge Dio

    The Patton museum here in Fort Knox, Ky used to have a King Tiger that was abandoned in the Ardennes. Seen it many times myself. But they recently moved it to Fort Benning Ga. along with a Panther. Get on google and type in "Patton museum King Tiger". They butchered the beast though...Someone...

    What Is Your Own Story As A King&Country Collector

    Bought the LAH standard bearer in '01 I believe. Hooked ever since, Mostly Germans, and most all of the Confederates as well. But....How do you guys feel about the $44.00 per soldier price now? It may be time for ME to take a break. I think you should be able to get 4 figures for $100.00, but...

    Future early German Army releases.

    Although I like the new figures, and the new Tiger, I notice the figures have jumped to $44.00 per. It's starting to get out of the justifiable range. I'm afraid after I finish with the Hitlerjugend series, I'm going to have to sit this out. Maybe permanently. When four figures will cost close...

    Very interesting site. I was on it for over an hour. Now I'll quit diverting this thread. Thanks.

    LAH Parade

    Nice collection, Not to get too far off the subject, but I went to see Zeppelin field, in Nuremburg back in '2000. And I'm not one for pseudo, psychic bull you know what. But the place had a very heavy feel about it. They were setting up for a motocross event that weekend. My cousin's husband...

    Leibstandarte

    It's the Hugo Boss designed SS uniforms. Other than the U.S. Marines dress blues..the most handsome design ever. And I can surely see how the Nazi's gained power in 33', Just look at what's happening to our (U.S.) country now. Bigger, and bigger government, mass unemployment, (sorry, my rant.)...

    How's the Civil War?

    I didn't get any of the union side, but was a completist as far as the Confederates go. They occupy the last shelf of my curio. Battling an unseen enemy. I too was wondering why K&C have not continued the line.

    Ever Notice!

    These figures look more lifelike when you just admire them with the human eye. But when you photograph them...It shows, how manufactured they really are. Something I've noticed from a lot of the dio's on here. Maybe it's just when the photograph's are close up? I collect mostly German, and they...

    Ws189

    So according to the K&C photo, this guy has wehrmacht general collar insignia, and shirmutze. But it looks like he has a waffen SS sleeve eagle...What gives?

    Germans in the Bulge with a Backdrop

    Never seen the soldier loading his K98 before, he must be an early bulge release. Looks great.

    Fallschirmjager Attack! (Dio)

    Input needed on BBG035

    I have a chance to get one of these splinter 88's at retail. I know they are HTF, But I have heard horror stories that they do not hold up in shipping, (major breakage) Should I... :confused:

    "You need to go this way!" (Dio)

    Looks great, I too am a huge fan of that early war SS unit. The figures show a lot of action, with all matching smocks. The only knock would be the SS collar runes suck, especially the strolling officer figure..(What the heck is that on his collar)???:confused:

    Missing LAH Poses and Personalities

    Brandenburg Gate..Now thats a great idea... As far as the LAH series goes, I was in way too deep ($$). I think K&C has run the gamut on on that one. And I never buy remakes of certain figures i.e. Himmler, Hitler, way too many Deitrich's, Georing, Enough already. How about a USMC marching 8th&I ?
