Very cool Martyn but have a feeling those guys will be busy trying to save those guns in the not too distant future

Many thanks Scott. No fear of being overrun this time, they have Gatling guns covering the flanks :salute:::salute::

Fantastic Photos!!!
I watched the movie "Zulu Dawn" a few days ago and then of course followed with the classic "Zulu". When I saw the photo of the Gatling gun scene from behind I could imagine them buggers sticking their heads up from the bush any second.

GREAT photos and set up -- Thanks!

I never was or have been a glossy collector but I have always admired and enjoyed the pictures of your very extensive and colourful Colonial collection. Your dio shots always depict well thought through professional lay-outs which definitely help to highlight your figures.

When I attend the London shows I tend to by-pass the Glossy tables, however, last Saturday I had to pick up some LL pieces for a very good Yankee pal of mine. I got talking to Mike of LL and although a Londoner attempting to talk to a Welshman forced us on occasions to use sign language ^&grin found him to be a real nice guy who guided me through a number of his sets.

Bottom line Martyn is this was the first time I had had a closeup and personal view of these little troops which were very impressive and I came away clearly understanding why you, Joe, my Yankee pal and other forum collectors are so enthralled with these splendidly colourful guys.

Back to your pictures-brilliantly stunning.

Many thanks Bob that is a wonderful compliment regarding my pictures:salute:::salute:::salute::

Mike is a great guy to deal with, we had a similar problem with communication but after a couple of years I think we have cracked it^&grin. I am also a Londoner from South of the River.

Martyn,

If there isn't a book on Trophy's products, you should write one. Since you live in London, you ought to contact Kevin Elliott (Panda1gen) and he can photograph and edit it for you. I don't even collect Trophy to any great extent any more, but I would buy the book if you wrote it.

Hi Louis

Thank you for your vote of confidence but I am not sure I am the person to do that^&grin

Please don't get the wrong idea I too would love to see a Trophy book available and would do what ever I could to assist in the project but there are many Trophy series that I do not collect, one of the main being Napoleonic.

A Forum buddy Alex (boerboy) wants to set up a web site devoted to Trophy

Thank you again for your kind words

Cheers
