Woohoo! Time to get the wallet out!

Hey guys, Recently (3 weeks ago) attended upon Greytown in less fortunate circumstances, my great-uncle passed in an area dominated by farmers of our stock (Carterton, Masterton NZ). As was the tradition, I always made time to pop into see David and Kay, they're both doing well! Walking into...

They have reappeared it seems... Really not impressed, such a blatant copyright infringement.

Correct! That figure was apart of a series (I believe sets 1-30) which were cut in the very early 90's... It was not available from any time from then on. All the same a lovely peice for the collection! :D

Hey guys, Just saw this while browsing ebay, I know a few Imperial collectors would be interested - they appear to be in good nick. HS No.1 Cameron Highlanders (Parade) currently $750 USD...

Another Imperial vote here! Bought my first one with saved-up pocket money ($2 NZD a week) and some boosters from Birthday card money! Officer of the Coldstream guards when I was 7 or 8... 15 years on, I'm still going strong - I agree with Drum, I don't personally believe another manufacturer...

Here here! Also, many warm wishes for the fellow Imperial collecting brethren! I hope you all have a wonderful and safe festive season ready for a 2010 filled with great success! Merry Christmas all :D

You're not wrong Drum... In my opinion he grossly under-charges... If it were possible that a few more talented painters were able to be trained by Kay, I would definately pay more for my purchases. Considering also the amount of near new figures you see go for some huge prices, I don't think...

What is set #150? I believe I'm caught up too, I just don't have a large enough display case :mad: ... I'll try and ring this week and see if we've missed out on anything :)

Absolutely gorgeous, Thank you very much!

Drum! I wondered how you were! If I can help in any way, please let me know! As far as contributions go, I have photographs of the lovely store, the man himself, Early price lists, Magazine articles dating back to the early 90's with interviews and reviews of Imperial Productions - I'll just...

Hey Viriato, This is the photo: It's my fault, caveat emptor... However, the description read: Item Name: Coldstream Guards, 1854 Item Number: No. 65A Manufacturer: Imperial Productions - Imperial Collectors' Figures Soldier Grade: Mint Soldier Grade Description: Still in original...

I bought some coldstream guards to knock up the ranks a bit, they were in fairly good nick... especially for the price. I did however notice they came from a smokers home, the boxes aren't in the best condition.Also in a set 65A, 6 CSG's marching - there was a colour sargeant from the colour...

Interesting replies! I agree with the Indian figures suiting Imperials style, especially with the gold paint they use, etc. A RHA gun team at the gallop would have been great I agree!!! Keep em' coming! :)

Hey guys, This forum has died down of late. As topic suggests, what are some ideas of figures you wish you had seen? Personally, I would have loved to have seen the 95th Rifles in the Peninsula and Waterloo campaigns, and maybe even an Indian Mutiny series, there are some very pretty...

Is that the 17th in Sudan? Do you have the Winston Churchill figure? *Edit - Boer war... right? Now I'm confused :(

Agreed! Look mummy! No stands! :eek::D:D:p

Hey all, I recently completed my Napoleonic collection (took me a while...). There are some beautiful calvary pieces which came out not long ago, currasiers and chaveu-legger lancers, etc. I'm reallllly hoping for a 95th rifles set, I think it would really put the icing on the cake for the...

Great collection you have, always nice to see the Napoleonic pieces come together! If you're wanting some fresh conscripts, there are a few Sudan/Crimean/Napoleonic sets on ebay at the moment :)

Hello Chuck, I do appologise my reply was after a few too many single malts! It was ofcourse referring to persons who would set original Imperial pieces into moulds to reproduce at profit :) A very unfortunate circumstance for you :( I hope you can find adequate replacements sometime. If...
