What do you collect of First legion?? (1 Viewer)

The Nazis were the most evil force of the twentieth century and were defeated by the freedom loving people of the world.
It is a pity we have these new Neo-Nazis who some how look up to these scum.

According to "Damian", if neo-nazi's come on these forums they get banned. Okay, I'll buy that, but what does "Hmmm" and "Indeed" mean? I asked a polite question and received an equally polite answer.

I think you are fine mate. Indeed was a reply to Hmmm, which was a speculation on the uncertainty of the identity of the banned poster. Neither of these had anything to do with you and there was no impoliteness in any of this, especially not to you.

Maunday, tuesday wednesday thursday.... and, friday it all kicks off and goes to the mattresses. Sorry, could not resist with Jazzeums reference to the Godfather.

I must say that I started in this hobby collecting LAH parade figures but, have no sympathies with their doctrines. Looks like Adolf has arisen and, lasted about as long as his his buddy.

I don't know about 'new neo nazi's' a gut at my UNI when I was an undergraduate had a swastika and a st georges flag hanging from his balcony for nigh on three years before it was removed by the police even though they knew it was there. Loads of Swastikas started appearing on walls etc and Combat 18 stuff.

I try to value every opinion and undertand them but, just cannot get why they follow this doctrine?

Can any one tell me why he started on here?

I read the post before they got pulled , It seems some guy had been contacting First Legion in an attempt to have them make him a life sized SS figures for his organization . It seems he didn't get the response he wanted so he took it public( this forum) . Yea it sounds weird and it was . Matt blew him off and Brad tried to put the breaks on him and he started to make threats. I really can't blame him for asking First Legion , If I wanted a Life sized Napoleonic figure they would certainly be at the top of a short list of companies that could pull it off without it looking to ridiculous . Well he is now banned and who cares . Can we get back to the topic of First legions product ? There is need to turn this thread into a debate about how debased Neo Nazis are and why and if they collect parade figures ..I think we all know that . All the best Gebhard

I agree Gebhard! Let's talk about the next release in the Napoleonic line!! It is much more interesting and important......... to me at least!

Given the frantic response (note the fallen cap) from the 95th, some hard-charging Cuirassiers must be upon them any time soon...

I thought that it might. I would really like to see the Rifles make their appearance.

Well that would be unfortunate for them, as it was for the French cavalry charging Rifles in the rocks at Fuentes. I love your thinking though, we do indeed need both.

I would love to see them both of course we already know what First Legions French Cuirassiers are gonna look like seems I have been looking at them for so long on the workbench and scale section of the FL website that I already have em .. The Rifles are gonna look great , my experience with Matt and first Legion is that they don't release any figure until its done to just about perfection . They don't seem interested in rushing something into production just to get the jump on the what is preseaved competition , I'm willing to wait until they feel they are ready for release What's the saying no Wine before it's time ... anyway it seems i'll have some Crusaders as a little distraction Gebhard

First Legion will never (ever) produce Nazis on parade.

Thank you. At least one manufacturer has some sensitivity. I am very grateful.

I have begun my collection with a building (TER006 Plancenoit European Village building #2). I have never seen anything so stunning. I hope to get them all.

Prussian Naps for the moment, soon to be ACW (CONFEDERATES ONLY!)

I have the British Guards and they are just incredible. Very fine job.

You gotta have someone to shoot at!!
I am really looking forward to the release of the Iron Brigade. I prefer Union Soldiers, but there are two sides to every story! The Confederate figures look awesome.
