Japanese Offensive (1 Viewer)

Hey Guys,

When configuring coffee table and bookshelf battlefields, I always like having opposing armies. Initially, this was the Japanese (right) side of the bookshelf which displays the extent of my TG Japanese collection (14 figures strong):

I really wanted to display the rock/cave formation, so after reconfiguring, I lost a little space but ended up with this:

I can't help but wonder if TG will be designing some future Aussie or Japanese pieces as it's been a few years since we've seen anything new.

Rob, I think the rock cave gives your display more visual interest. Both displays are great looking but I like your current version best.

Great scene Rob, the caves do add some 'mystery' to it. I have some Aussies VS Japs, Aussies VS Afrika Korps and Aussies VS Vietnamese on my 85 cm glass shelves but as you know, the space is limiting. I intend to change my displays but as usual with me I have recently realised I've taken on too many projects, and will mainly concentrate on home renovations over our Autumn/Winter.

As for more Aussies, don't hold your breath mate. I understand that TS sales have dropped globally over recent years, and I know a lot of long term Aussie collectors that have been cutting back and downsizing their collections, including myself. Some guys have switched to the 'smaller' high detailed 1/30 scale stuff, but those prices are crazy high. So in a nutshell, I would venture that the TS companies are more likely to produce sets they know will sell, rather than take risks with lower sale sets, a luxury they can no longer afford. And there is a war on, so there's that as well.

Yes I like the attack on the rock cave vignette, a scene carried out hundreds of times in this war. Robin.

Great photos of some of TG’s best figures.
