Are we going to get any news soon... (1 Viewer)

I would prefer the Republic period, myself... Imperial Rome has been done many times already and is currently offered by East of India and it looks like Conte will be taking another stab at it...

Could it be The battle of Cannae? That would be something!!! :)

There is just a small detail, with all due respect for those fine manufacturers: FL's figures are light years away from those IMHO:rolleyes:.

But seriously, when are we going to get an announcement on a new line???

I guess what I wanted to convey are the following considerations:


  • Whatever era, it will be a conflict that is essential to military history and underrepresented in the toy soldier collecting hobby;
  • The choice of figures/models representing the conflict will be near exhaustive.
  • It will not get any cheaper, but the quality might further improve.
In concluding: Whatever it is, it will be massive and require investments. Hence:

SAVE​

PS: Not exactly sure why people are clamoring for another line. At this point, there are so many FL models out there that I absolutely need, my wish list has taken on the size of the NY Metropolitan Area phone book. I trust it is those that collect neither WWII nor Samurai and Napoleonic. I was once one of those collectors, too .... :D

Good points all but I would suggest that the first one may be a bit of a flexible tendency. FWIW, I am not clamoring for another line either since I have more than my handful with the Napoleonic line. I thankfully have no interest in the WWII ground war but those Samurai are all ready too tempting.:eek::D Part of me is already afraid it will envolve the Rome or the middle ages; I don't know if I could resist those done the way FL could do them. Must finish the Peninsula first.:eek::D

Couldn't agree more. If it is a Roman theme, that would be awesome. I would certainly have to get in on that series. However, there is so much still to do with the Napoleonic range. What is a guy to do!

Well Said , All very good points . As I have said before I sure hope the new lines won't interest me , As I'm already totally addicted to the Napoleonic line which takes up a pretty good chunk of my budget and I'm slowly getting pulled into the Stalingrad line :eek: Don't know were the idea that one of the new lines will be Roman was started ,maybe Matt's Centurion hint but I sure hope it wont be so :( That is one of my main points of interest and may put me over the top . Please let em be something like Vietnam ,Korea or maybe Cowboys and Indians , as I sure would love to be able to just enjoy the Napoleonic line in peace . But GOD knows the flesh is weak :D Gebhard
 
If it's anything post-1900, I am completely safe...

If it's FIW, I'm still safe as I am already committed to JJD for this range...

If it's ACW, I'm somewhat safe as I may only feel a need to purchase personality figures... I hope... :eek:

Better not be Romans or Middle Ages or I'm in big trouble!!! :eek:

I am already on the fence with the upcoming Samurai's... have one of the first ones produced already... it will be hard to resist a few more of these... I hope only a few... :D

I am not collecting the Nap line although it looks terrific my resources (room and $$$) are elsewhere when it comes to Naps. I have also somehow resisted Stalingrad. But FIW, Rome or the Middle Ages, those would mean real trouble:D:D:D. Time to find out and plan ahead...;):D

If it's FIW I'm in deep s..t, all others I can resist.
