[King & Country]

Hi Guys,

I was researching through some old photographs and adverts from K&C’s early days and thought you might like to see them…
So without further ado… enjoy! Best wishes and happy collecting.

Mitch,

That's a Chinese Army display, issued to commemorate the return of Hong Kong to China. I have never seen a massed display that large although I suspect Lawrence could put one together.

I have some of the items; the backlot buildings are great.

Very nice Andy. A lot of nostalgia for days long passed. Very interesting to see how the figures and planes have evolved over the years. Getting better and better year after year.

Still like the backlot buildings. Wish I had a few but they cost a fortune and rarely show up for resale.

It may sound strange but, if I was offered any AFV etc or, a pile of old leaflets I would take the leaflets.

Hey Andy,

With the strong buying power of Mainlander Chinese these days, I think maybe it's time to reproduce the PLA on parade? Perhaps also the 1997 Black Watch and Royal Marines and Navy in tropical White uniform? A Diorama of the farewell parade in Tamar on 30th June, 1997?

Awesome! Old School!

That Chinese Army display is freaking sweet.


Keep it silly

Interesting to see the old ads, very nostalgic. Its easy to see the improvements in K&C's sculpting and painting that have occured over time. This type of committment to excellence is nice to see. I noticed a Normandy Hanomag....we sure could use one of these for our collections. ^&cool

How about bringing some of those prices back

Do you have a realistic suggestion on how to do that so that, at the same time, K & C remains profitable.

I assume I probably shouldn't hold my breath :tongue:

Don't take everything serious. I also complain about the price of gas without regard to how much profit exxon earns. I just wish it was the days when a set of 4 soldiers was $85 and gas was $1.05 a gallon

 

[PanzerAce1944]

Some real treasures shown in the leaflets. !

 

[Thompyt]

Nice items,
It also demonstrates the advances in the TS market with detail.

I take little seriously (a big failing). I'm sure we all wish prices were far cheaper than they are now.
