Sammy,

Have you heard that Topps is running some special promotion this year, where they are randomly mixing in old cards into packs, including a 1952 Mickey Mantle.

 

[DMNamiot]

Wow a 52 Mantle will sell a lot of packs. I have a 56 and would love to own a 52 but who can swing those sort of prices.

I hope Andy will forgive me this once!

Sammy I hope you are very happy in collecting FL.I also very much agree with you about keeping it light.I obviously totally disagree with Vezzolf re Toy Soldiers but we can do it in an non insulting or argumentative way,I for one do not go onto other producers threads to trumpet K&C,K&C don't need that.

Hope you visit here often Sammy,am about to start work on pt2 of my D Day dio and as a D Day enthusiast will welcome your opinion when finished

All the best

(I hear FL are doing a 'Stalingrad' Tiger!.Should be cool!)

Rob

look forward to your pics on part II of your d-day dio, have you looked into the beach matts from Build-a rama?? they look sharp, hopefully there will be plenty of D-day releases this year to add to your collection.

hope First Legion does a Tiger at some point, think it would be a great to add on to thier list of really nice vehicles...Sammy

Thanks Sammy,I am at the moment considering if I should either use a mat from one of the suppliers or create my own terrain.The terrain will be in front of a bunker so will have grass in it unlike the first section that is just sand only.The second section will be as long as the first so I hope to have trenches behind the bunker and maybe another Pillbox or gun emplacement.

I'm glad you are enjoying you move to FL,you have a good chance to catch up as Stalingrad is still a pretty new range.

All the best

This is a neat idea. Someone (probably a company executives kid) will get a REALLY valuable card. I never had a 52 Mantle but I had almost all the other Mantles that didn't cost as much as a car. Gave the 1960 card to one son, the 1969 to the other, and kept the 1968 for myself. Lest you all think the son with the 69 card got stuck, he also has the Maris signed baseball. Sold all the other cards to finance, you guessed it, toy soldiers. Hobbies are great, but as an adult, they are expensive. -- Al
