    kronprinz, starnge days

    Agree that higher prices are squeezing collectors to make harder choices - in my case, I have mostly stopped FL and K&C purchases due to price, but also scale incompatibility. In the case of Kronprinz, the figures are very good and scale is compatible with newer Britains, but for me, the number...

    For Sale: Conte Priory and Graveyard from Playset #7

    I will hang on to my Conte church which is taller than wide, but these pieces are generally sized for epic scenes, and unfortunately my space is more modest. Better it goes to a collector than my attic. Mike

    FOV is back

    As concerns FOV and scales - the most unfortunate part of collecting FOV (I have a bunch) is that there are no suitably scaled metal soldiers that are compatible. Plastics are the closest I've come (e.g., 1/32 Airfix), although the older Figarti marines (WW2 and modern) work reasonably well with...

    Figarti Marines - Korea

    Trapped indoors by snowstorm so thought I would post some pics... The marines from X Corps that landed at Incheon in 1951 had uniforms and gear left over from ww2 - actual landing pic shown first. I used Figarti's marines in a small shelf vignette showing them moving inland from Incheon towards...

    Nichimo 1/30 M60 "conversion" to M48

    After seeing the new FL M48 Marine tank (bit beyond my budget), I was inspired to build an older Nichimo 1/30 M60 kit from my stash and do a conversion to make it pass for a M48 to use with my 1/30 Vietnam figures (Figarti and FL). The early turret of this M60 is very similar to the M48...

    Remembering D-Day with Conte

    The Bloody Omaha series from Conte were a gritty reminder of the sacrifices made by the first wave of US troops on Omaha beach... I have the two landing craft but was never able to collect the whole series Mike
