Famous Commanders and leaders (1 Viewer)

[Rob]

Must say these type of figures are just superb, to me they add an extra dimension of realism because they were real characters and famous personalities.

Here are six of my personal faves;

I agree totally Rob. It's nice to have famous leaders to put into a dio for a historical perspective. I have several and am always looking to add to them.

Agreed. They are nice but, one we really need to see is Frost from Market garden and, Cain!!!!!

Rob,

This is an extraordinary K&C tradition, and this kind of figures are indeed exceptional, and must-haves for any collector, adding historical realism. This latest Winston Chirchill is a superb example, a splendid figure!

Rob mate,
Nice collection. I know Brett has a K&C famous leaders display in his shop which he is very proud of. Myself I was over the moon to get one of my legends being a mounted Sir Harry Chauvel of the Lighthorse. Only waiting patiencely now for Sir John Monash, Aussie Corp Commander WW1 (hopefully mounted as well) to complete the duo.
Cheers Howard

Sir John Monash, Howard is right he is also a must have on my wish list, I once asked (in my early ingnorance) Brett if I could buy the German Crown Prince in the display cabinet containing all the famous leader figures, I got a NO and a 'that's my private stash' answer. :wink2::rolleyes2:

Thanks for clearing that up Wayne - when Brett said he had a private stash I was quite confused!

You desire for a Monash figure will hardly surprise your friends!

Just to put my two bobs worth in, I would like to see Great War Generals 1. John Monash 2. Aurthur Currie 3. Douglas Haig added to any future K&C releases. IMHO.

I think I set of the big 3 at Yalta would be a nice addition to any collection.

I agree with all of you and would welcome these sets to my collection without hesitation. ^&cool

I also would welcome a set of these. I can understand why no one has been doing Stalin, but have any of the major manufacturers, specifically K&C, ever produced FDR? I have been thinking it would be great to have a figure of him! There have been lots of Churchills of course, and the new one with the victory sign is on my short list.

I don't understand WHY they wouldn't do Stalin? They've done Hitler, Himmler, Heinrich, etc...

I think this 3-leader set would sell good on the market.

You can get these figures because someone has already made them.

I don't know mkaes them who because the guy I painted them from found them on EBay, but I bet that someone in Eastern Europe has pirated the figures looking at the castings and then seelng them off cheaply.

Well, I think a lot of people wonder why Hitler is made so much, and you add a controversial figure like Stalin together with the lower popularity of Russian/Soviet figures, and the market is a little smaller than with many figures. That is how I meant it. I would love to have the set if they made one though! I think it would be very interesting. They could even make some of the background figures! Nice dio there!!

I love these K&C personality figures . I like to display adversaries such as Churchill and Hitler , Monty and Rommel, French and Hindenburg .

I think Hindenburg is one of the great figures by produced by K&C !!
