My little Zulu War collection was completed years ago. But I still love it and enjoy it every day!

ONLY 1/32, well ok, 1/30 too. ONLY Metal. ONLY Waterloo; Charge of the Light Brigade; Zulu War, Battle of Berlin 1945. ONLY what I can display, and that ain't all that much. Note: would have loved to be ONLY glossy, but..... sigh...

1968 Volkswagen Karmann Ghia

Real "toy soldiers" at last! Delightfully whimsical.

I literally had to search the world for the Earl of Cardigan by Frontline Figures.. Here he is in the display:

Hi Wayne, Sorry for not answering sooner.. just noticed your post :redface2: I bought the T-34 on Ebay: http://www.ebay.com/itm/1-30-T34-main-battle-tank-34cm-12-5cm-22cm-Includes-barrel-and-antenna/161833300223?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649 Turns out it is NOT...

Telling a story through pictures of an evolving diorama really adds a new dimension to the Toy Soldier Hobby. Reminds me of playing with the soldiers; acting out a story live... you've captured it in pics! Thanks for sharing,

The figures are K&C 1/30, the Tank is also 1/30. I suppose 1/32 would work however.

Going to need a COMMANDER. Any suggestions?

Around the mid 80s, found some pieces being sold at a hotel lobby in Hong Kong

Toilet paper and Medium sized paper cups.. Softly wrap your pieces in the toilet paper and place in the paper cups.. use crumpled up toilet paper at the bottom of the cups.. Arrange the cups in boxes.. Been using this technique for 50 years.. moved 10 times in 10 years with no casualties..

I know this is a MATT thread, but I wish we could get some GLOSSY Napoleonics again..

The figure is in the "Loader's Hatch", not the Commander's..

people collect stuff for all sorts of reasons and to each his own.. I been collecting for the love of the figures for over 55 years now. I throw away boxes and display whatever I buy. I don't buy any more than I can display "nicely". Sometimes people crowd their displays with so many pieces...
