More sailors. Mine came in and they are very cool! But I am hoping that the USS San Pueblo becomes a reality so I need to save my nickels for that one! DO you think K&C will make a second set of sailors? I hope so, but I need to finish my collection of these guys first.

I am so with your sentiments on a ship, being made. Also, I wish the BAR sailor had a more dynamic pose. We also need mounted maxims and deck guns....Michael

My first purchase for 2009 was also my first ever purchase.
I picked up FW024 Sir John French from the Great War series today from Kings X in San Antonio.

In which case, welcome to your financial doom!
I'm sure it will be the first of many. Welcome to the forum!

I think it makes it even worse that I work a block away from the Kings X store here in San Antonio.
I am being conservative right now and just 1 figure a payday but I think that will change quickly.

The Kaiser and his Staff Car. Awesome.
How could anyone pass up the Kaiser? I love the WWI personality figures. I think that Otto Dix with a sketchbook in hand and a copy of Zarathustra peeking out of his pocket would be cool. What about Wilfred Owen writing poetry? Harry Truman as an artillery officer? Many, many options.

Yes as a fairly new range WW1 has a lot of subjects to choose from,looking forward to seeing this range grow and grow.

Sounds good to me. I just acquired the Kaiser and plan to add most of the current personality figures from WWI in the coming months.

I ordered some K&C Paratroopers to go with the Greyhound I won on Ebay a little while back. After watching Band of Brothers all over again this past Christmas - I felt there should be a Paratrooper display in my collection.
So DD 46 - Paratrooper Set was my first for 2009 (before it was retired)

A classic set Ron,good choice for your first 2009 purchase.With all the older D Day sets gradually being retired do i sense something big coming for D Day this year?.Its a bit like the scene from 'The Longest Day' where the German soldier is scanning the Horizon.....and then he spots the invasion!

Anyone would think you have a sneaky idea what is on the horizon Rob!
Have your cryptologists cracked the Enigma code?
