Imitation & Flattery (1 Viewer)

[King & Country]

Hi Guys,

Among my favourite quotations is “Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery”.

Here are a few more...
“You know you’re winning when you see you’re being copied!”

and...
“It is better to fail in originality than to succeed in imitation”.

finally...
“Be yourself because an original is worth more than a copy”.

All the best and happy collecting!
Andy

Andy your LAH112 gets my vote any day of the week. Back in May 2009 I paid A$266 for it - great value then and even more so today!

One of my favourite structures, coupled with the accessories to bring it to life. Robin.

I was a bit shocked by the blatant, albeit inferior, copy of K & Cs fine depiction of life at the Burghof. Not only the structure but figures and accessories too. I hope Andy's getting paid royalties for this intrusion!

Is it a copy of a model or a copy of a building. If a model, unless a copyright was indicated, no royalties are owed. If a building, since the building was created before 1990 no royalties are owed.

Not my cup of tea, but a well done scene, as all of yours are.

I like the winter scenes, simple but showing the end of an era .........

Everytime I see a depiction of Blondi, i feel bad for the dog, imagine having that donkey as your master. UGH.

Ya' me too, Tom. That the b@$terd had to test the poison on him is unforgivable.
I know that there is only one "Hitler's Berghof" in reality, but maybe Brian should have made it his an extension to the K&C offering or added something special to make it unique?

Think that the tip of the iceberg I’m sorry to say

To get back to Andys opener:

In my eyes it is more than disappointing what the collectors showcase is doing.
Brians upcoming I find without any own input, just the wrong point of all white dressings....

Flattery is very friendly for this behavior in my eyes....
