When I got home from my trip to Antietam all of my new Trophy Acquisitions had arrived! I will try to get them out on my WWI diorama and have Alec take some photos later today.

Thank you Martyn. Coming from you that is the highest complement. I am only 2 sets away from completing my goal of displaying all of Len’s Western Front sets, but I still have to find the majority of his Russian and Turkish sets to meet my overall goal of displaying every Trophy WWI set.

I'm looking for a little help gentleman: Are any of you firendly with Ken Jackson of Heritage Miniatures, or at least have his contact information? One of the last two sets I need to complete my collection of Western Front Trophy WWI is this Gray Bus with Navy personnel, which Mr. Jackson has been producing until recently (and hopefully will still produce):

I would very much like to get in touch with Mr. Jackson, and see if I can order one of these buses, and would appreciate an introduction from a fellow forum member who is friendly with him. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Also, for anyone who has one of these buses, or the Motor Ambulance (depicted below), I would be interested in purchasing or trading for it (I have an extra Trophy Searchlight Truck and several other duplicate Trophy WWI sets to trade).

It does not rain but that it pours!!! I just obtained GW47 Russian Guard Battalion Mounted Officer, GW50 Russian Army Ammunition Mule,GA22 Ottoman Turkish Cavalry Trooper, GA23 Ottoman Turkish Cavalry Trooper #2, GA24 Ottoman Turkish Cavalry Trooper #3, and a set I did not even know existed, GW37X, 1st Regiment Tirialleurs Algerians. I still need a dozen sets, but I am getting there!

I should throw out a thank you to our good friend and Trophy expert Martyn, as right after I bought these extremely rare sets, I saw a PM from Martyn giving me a heads up. You are the best, mate!

I just made a deal with the same seller for GA11 Turkish Infantry Firing Line, GW49 Standard Bearer- Russian Regimental and a mounted German Officer wearing a Stahlhelm:

Boy is this seller's collection vast! I just purchased the Mounted British Officer with the soft cap, the only version of any of the mounted officers I didn't have yet!
