Do you you believe? First legion holds a challenge for King and Country? (1 Viewer)

I think you are quite correct here Mitch, its about maturity and not feeling the need to ram what you collect down other peoples throats all the time, the
Well said Rob {bra{sm0}vo

A forum is about everyone opinion not just your , just because someone does not agree with with you does not make them right or you wrong mate

I agree...that is how it is supposed to work !

Thing is guys and on a positive note, there are now very few people who seem bent on thrusting their views, beliefs or choices on the rest of us. The majority on here are open minded, well balanced and just want to enjoy the hobby , their will always be the odd agenda, but generally things look better around here these days

I agree - things do seem improved. I wonder how much has to do with more people collecting from multiple manufacturers including those that collect both K&C and FL?

I think you you may have a good point there Terry about people buying from multiple manufacturers , I know I do

Yep could be that, it could also be that some K&C and FL collectors have said they are fed up with all the unpleasentness and no longer indulge in it. As I said with the odd exception folk are well balanced and also considerate of other members, this is key I think.

Well looks like i should get a life and drop the spoon? hah:^&cool ,in all seriousness boys this post as i can see has stired the forum up quite a bit but that was not of my intentions but rather just to get an overall public opinion of some of our favorite company's , my response to my post is that well i love both First Legion and K and C just the same as they both are special and unique in their own different ways,sure we have all grown attached to K and C but they have been around for what seems forever and First legion has well just hatched and has so many great things to offer as a newer company.

 

[Capitolron]

I personally prefer King & Country - always have and always will. I collect other other brands like Conte and Britains - so I am not just narrow with my collection. But, when it comes to First Legion - for the big money $$ - I have no interest.

King & Country meets my top dollar needs.

 

[Shadowfax]

I think it largely depends on what you intend to collect. I collect FL figurines too but only the samurai range. I think if you guys observe, FL is going into some areas that is away from what K&C is doing at the moment.For example the samurai range, the renaissance period, the romans( after K &C had done them), the not so common armies of the napoleonic wars etc..

I think it boils down to what period you are collecting, I see K&C and FL complementing each other and giving the consumers more choices in the periods we are interested in collecting. This can only be beneficial to the consumers but we really have to dig deep into our pockets now. Hahahahhaha.

 

[Mitch]

Regardless of what some of the collectors who offer up some of the debate between the two as to how good or poor the products are from both manufacturers. I would venture all the manufacturers hope they will be half as successful as King and country have been over the years

Very well put.

I think its quite refreshing that this thread has been held in a calm atmos with no threats to life or limb, in the old days infractions and bans would be flying around like shrapnel.....perhaps we are all growing up.....no surely not^&grin:wink2:

Hey Gabe-

i do not believe Maple Leaf meant that at you at all, or anyone in particular. We both know that things have gotten heated in the past regarding this debate and I believe it was more a blanket statement so I wouldn't take it as anything more than that. You keep posting, nothing negative appears to have come from this discussion, in fact, it seems quite the opposite, as many people have commented that things seem rather civil.

Civil?You mean as in Civil War {eek3}?Just kidding fellas.^&grin^&grin:rolleyes2::tongue:
