Hello All from WWII Fan (1 Viewer)

[WesternOutlaw]

Hi All - I've visited this forum a few times and really wanted to part of it as I think it's the most comprehensive forum related to 1/32 and similar sized toy soldiers.

I reside in the Western US and collected Marx Toy Soldiers and battle sets as a kid growing up in the 70s. It wasn't until the last couple of years that I got back into the hobby with Ultimate Soldier, Forces of Valor (FOV), and Classic Toy Soldiers. Unfortunately, my remaining Marx collection is limited to army men. While I also like 1/18 scale action figures and vehicles; as I'm sure most of you are aware, the potential for larger dioramas is possible with the smaller scale.

I'm mainly a fan of WWII but also like Civil War, Western, and other historic themes. I've got a modest collection of Ultimate Soldier and FOV vehicles mixed with a few other themes and enjoy taking pictures of a small tabletop diorama as well as photo-editing with various backdrops.

I especially like WWII North Africa-related scenes and mdse., and am considering getting into Collector's Showcase.

Here's a few recent shots just to say hello:

Good to be here.

My participation in the forum has enabled me to greatly grow as a collector, has allowed me to make wonderful friends, and has resulted in my obtaining much useful knowledge. I believe you will have a similar experience, especially if you visit often and post frequently.

Again, welcome to the forum and, above all, have a good time!

Warmest personal regards,
