    Value retention/appreciation

    LAH is one of my areas of collecting interest and, although I'm not a seller, I do keep an eye on the prices they are fetching at auction. My observation is that, generally, any retired LAH from around the LAH20's onwards tends to at least make its original value and in some cases exceed it by...

    Gunn miniatures may 2016 figure release

    Some interesting new releases here- I'll be getting those freikorps. I also wondered about the swastika helmet - apparently this one is in the German History museum, Berlin.

    Anglo Zulu War

    I'm looking to start a collection of this series and there seems to be a distinct lack of photos on the forum (and the web) of these figures. I'd like to see these in more detail as I can only find First Legion's stock images of most figures. Who collects these ? Can anyone post a few images...

    Waterloo 1815

    I've really enjoyed following this thread. Your Waterloo dioramas are superb. So many stories in one huge display.

    What's wanted for the Great War.

    I'd like to see one of the manufacturers (preferably First Legion) portray British tommies wearing gas masks. Advancing and coming under attack would make a particularly dramatic diorama. Could also be done from the German perspective with the young corporal Hitler depicted in 1918 before he was...

    New plastic figures !!

    I'd potentially be interested but the price would have to be right - that is, they would have to be half price or less. Also, I'd need to get a look at one in person before I ordered. There is a very tactile quality to a cast metal figure which I can't imagine you'd get from a hard plastic...

    New Releases For March 2014!

    The advancing tommies look good. I'd like to see similar versions of these wearing gas masks. The Mark V tank is an essential purchase for WW1 collectors IMO.

    Falkland island battle??

    Excellent suggestion. There have been hardly any Falklands War TS. I reckon a club figure based on this iconic photo would be a good place to start.

    King & Country Dispatches -- February 2014

    Some excellent releases this month. The new LAH look good - the SA bannerman and goose-stepping figures in particular. As others have said - I'd like to see K&C get around to doing the personalities not yet depicted - Speer, Von Ribbontrop etc. Also, I'd have preferred to see a new Himmler...

    my first...

    Nice pick up Brad. The detail on that waffen ss figure looks superb - as I'd expect from FL. I'm still collecting the Heer and Soviet Stalingrad troops but i'm definitely going to add a couple of these at some point. Carlin.

    Three blokes in a trench.

    Really nicely done. Trench scenes are one of the best subjects for a diorama. Looking forward to some great releases depicting the Great War this year. :salute::

    What do you want to see produced in 2014?

    Excellent idea for a new range. I'd like to see some freikorps AFV's - and spartacist opposition of course. This would be a good subject for thomas gunn miniatures to address.

    Town re-captured in the Ardennes

    Excellent diorama and really well thought out. Those captured German figures look great. Carlin.

    Why not do a good reich chancellery

    Great idea. I'd also like to see a new, undamaged reich chancellory facade. Well overdue IMO.

    Sa

    I'll second that - nicely done. :wink2:Lucky owner, whoever they are. :rolleyes:

    Sa

    Guy - I reckon your diorama would work really well as a pre-war scene with this unfortunate fellow (from WS091) being arrested by those TG SA police for writing "Down with Hitler!" on the poster board. Carlin.

    Displayability of the King & Country Building

    As an Eastern Front collector I'd welcome the release of damaged open-sided buildings if K&C were to make them. Trying to source diorama accessories which complement these displays is difficult from outside the US. The best stuff out there seems to be by Hudson and Allen and Build-a-rama but...

    New line!!!! Wwi

    These forthcoming Great War figures look fantastic - some excellent poses amongst them, as is usual with First Legion. As a FL Stalingrad collector already I know these will be good. The trench sections also look the business. I hope they get around to doing British tommies wearing gas masks -...

    What do you want to see produced in 2014?

    This year I'd like to see some advancing British Infantry (including Highlanders) wearing gas masks as part of the new World War 1 releases from any of the matte manufacturers. These would look good as part of a diorama I have in mind using JJD's new Mark V tank as a centrepiece. As for WW2 I...

    JJ and WW1

    It does indeed. I've always liked the look of First World War tanks - I think its their fairly crude design. It must have been terrifying for an enemy to see these new killing machines on a battlefield for the first time. JJD's mark V model will be the centrepiece of WW1 combat dio I'll be...
