G'Day Dave, Interesting question and my feelings/response is: Britains were purchased by the Americans from the Brits so obviously an "American" focus was going to become more dominant than British. I guess this was a business decision by the company and not a collecting focused decision...

G'Day Britains and all the great collectors out there from all us collectors in Australia. I too wait with great anticipation for the new 06 figures and hope that Britains will bring out new British military figures covering British and Commonwealth at war 1900 - 2000. As Britains seems to...

G'Day TLP and forum users. I agree with you, TLP, if Britains (First Gear) get thier act together with the new guys then I believe they can recover market share and get back to being the best Toy Soldier company on the planet and certainly give K&C a run for thier money. See ya Antony

G'Day Britains Fans, It's great to see the new Trench sets by Britains and at a reasonable price - I will be buying mine very shortly. I notice that the figures especially the German ones in the trench seem to complement the German Stormtrooper set being retired this year. However, where is...

G'Day Shannon, Thanks to you and Britains for selling the Collectors Club figures to general public. I have always wanted these figures; however, could not afford the club membership as opposed to spening that money on buying figures and am very happy that I now have access to them. I will...

G'Day Viriato, Yes, I agree the new WW2 range is great especially the 'strike attack sets'; however, Britains needs to make sure they continue making future sets to go with it or similar range of sets to go with otherwise us "Britains die hards" end up with lots of 1 offs that don't match up...

G'Day Viriato & Gideon, I have just read your postings and agree - as a "die hard" Britains collector it is sometimes hard to stay "true" to product when u see some of the things that Britains have done and are doing. I agree that Britains needs a "back to basics" approach about thier toy...

G'Day Peter, I agree, Britains are doing a balancing act; however, I beleive thier are enough customers on both sides of the world ie the British Commonwealth Britains collectors and the US Britains collectors for them to make both type sets/themes and those of us who cross over both will get...

G'Day Bill, I agree, more of us Britains collectors need to come out in support of the tried and tested best toy soldier in the world, Britains. I hope we can convert more of you K & C guys over to us; however, I do accept and appreciate that K & C are a good product and the themes they cover...

G'Day all Britains collectors. I know that Britains are now owned by a US Company (RC2); however, I have noticed that the themes/figure types are more US centric and moving away from the traditional British themes. Whilst I understand and respect that the US is a bigger market and Britains is...

G'Day Tim, Thanks for the answers and I hope that the RM figure gets up and running. Also, can't wait for the book and look forward to its release. Thankyou for taking the time and care to answer the questions, kind regards, Buckomp Australia

G'Day from a devoted Britains fan in Australia. Thanks for letting us have a say and I hope that we can influence future sets. Can we have some more Australians and NZ. I have the original sets made in the late 40s and 50s of Australian Infantry (2030, 2031, 1544 (1930s). Its about time...
