Anyone got any info about this set. It is apparently made by WB and distributed in Australia. Great set. There are not enough ANZAC sets around

Wow, Damian.....I love it (a lot).
As I've mentioned on some other thread, I've managed to avoid WWI by the skin of my teeth, but if someone, (WB, K&C, Conte, Martians even....cos I don't care), puts out a Middle East WWI range, then just about everything else I collect will take a temporary back seat.
I really, really, like that piece.

Cheers

Somebody has this on ebay already...at least they did yesterday when I last looked.

Thats a great set,very evocative.

Yes, I admit it is tempting as it looks very nicely done and I tend to like medical themed sets like this.

Thanks Brad, I have not for the life of me figured out how to post those ebay links...any pointers?

Dave,

Right above the post box (where you type your text) is a little globe. You click it and then paste in your link and hit ok and then it will highlight what you want to call it and you type that in and you're done.
 
Okay I see it. I'll give it a go next time I spy something interesting on EBay. Thanks again, Brad.

Thanks for the tip OD. I have sent them an email inqiring re: shipping charge to US. Their price is better that is for sure.

MD
 
Ah well, I just went ahead and ordered this from Hobbyco. Should be $99AU prior to shipping charges, so seems a pretty good deal. Thanks again for the tip, OD.

Thanks again Oz, I really appreciate your help. I bought one from Gatewaymodels despite the fact they overcharge it of 10,00$AUD.

This is definitely a must to have in my collection. Do you own it?

Pierre.

Pierre. I haven't bought one as yet, but the way you guys are buying I had better hurry up ;)

I was at Gateway Models on Monday and noticed the Simpson and His Donkey set in one of the cabinets and can confirm that it looks even better than the photos. Btw, Gateway Models is situated in an old service station (garage) near the coast in Brisbane. I have known the owner for over twenty years and his main business is selling batteries for cars and trucks etc. He is a keen collector and sells models as a sideline to his battery business, which makes for some interesting shop displays :)

MD, how do you figure AU $99 prior to shipping as the RRP is AUD $109, did they give you a discount :eek:
 
I'm surprised no one has asked this but do you think Simpson has one?:)
