Quite an impressive collection, Randy. Do you purchase direct or is there a US distributor? -- Al

I used to get them from Treefrog until they stopped distributing them. Now I get them direct from Australia.

Such wonderful figures, great display, lovely collection! I really like the Boxer Rebellion figures too because they provide for great diversity when it comes to uniforms and nationalities. Nothing like a few colorful colonial uniforms...:rolleyes2:.

Thanks for posting,
Paulo

Hi Randy - thanks for showing these really nice looking pieces from down under.

Others looking might care to note that I have recently been chatting to Randy about "Buffalo Soldiers" - one of whom is shown in his impressive display of WETS. Randy advised me that the whole of the WETS range ARE available as castings - for folks like me - who like to paint their own.

Just thought others of like mind, may care to know that too. I must say - I like them very much. When I have finished a few more of my latest stash - I will be looking again with interest at some of these.

Thanks again Randy, johnnybach

Randy mate,
Just had to bump this thread back in light of events of past days. Cannot get my good mate Craig out of my mind. His work and your collection are fantastic.
Cheers Howard

I just know how you feel. It's very difficult to believe that this has happened. It always seems so unfair that good people like Craig are taken from us to soon while the evil ones seem to last forever. I always looked forward to opening those neat little WE boxes and seeing the treasure carefully packed away inside. Craig's generosity, responsiveness, friendliness and enthusiasm were the true mark of his time among us.

I will truly miss his presence. We were all fortunate to have known him.
