Something to give away (1 Viewer)

[kogu]

A little more than a year ago, I was the very fortunate recipient of some of the most generous gifts I ever heard about in the Toy Soldier Hobby.

One of the generous suppliers was a former forum member, Harry, who was used to be known here as "harrytheheid".
He sent me his entire collection of K&C Crimean War Line figures, only charging the shipping costs.

Tonight I lined them all up and found out that I had too many to display on a given shelf in my curio cabinet.

So, I decided to give some of them away, and as Harry did, I'm only asking for shipping costs.

Here's a group of 10 figures of the "Thin Red Line" Highlanders.
Please notice, that all of them do need a little work.
They all need bayonets and a touch-up of paint here and there.
They do not come in the original boxes.

I will package them, wrapped up in bubble wrap individually.

The most pleasure I would get, if this group gets to a collector, who has the necessary skills to fix them up, and will enjoy displaying them in his collection.

I really don't want to see them being offered on ebay.

Contact me by pm through this forum, if you are interested.
If multiple members are interested, I reserve the right to pick my choice by tomorrow night 8:00pm

Cheers!

Konrad

Here's another one I want to give away, only asking the shipping costs.
It's a WWI Artillery Set, that was given to me by yet another former forum member, Pierre.

This Austro-Hungarian Artillery Set is from Fusilier Miniatures (kits), but custom painted in a beautiful traditional gloss finish by our fellow forum member Jeff "aujj65".

Hopefully this will find a nice place in a traditional gloss WWI collection, where it gets displayed and appreciated as it deserves.

Cheers!

I'd be glad to add it to my collection . . . I collect only WW1 material, much of which I've converted, cast, and painted.

You beat me to it Al. I have two sets painted by Jeff and he's a fantastic painter. I'm sure it will look great in your collection. Enjoy!

Konrad, I was hoping you would give them all to me, then I would put them on ebay!

Good times and enjoyable Konrad, I had more enthusiasm then to paint as well. I only paint for myself now Brad - just a few conversions of the WBritains War along the Nile range.

Received the field piece and crew on Monday; well packed and in good condition. It certainly is a nice little piece, isn't it . . . well sculpted and painted. It will be added to my display case next to my RHA battery of four guns. (Should I ever get crews finished for my 7.7cm German battery, they'll be in a line of nine guns!

Thank you again for a wonderful set!

The 5 figures arrived safe and sound and I will line them up with the rest of my Crimea figures this weekend.

Thanks Konrad.
