We are all here for the soldiers,maybe many of us collect more than one line. Im wondering what the most popular is. I am putting my vote for the Naps. Comman sense makes me think WWII is the biggy though so lets find out if anyone wants to score the other lines we can do them all. if anyone adds a post keep score as you add your vote Rob naps 1 WWII O
 
As a WW2 kinda guy i'm liking the result so far,but unless my eyes are playing me up isn't the Crimean war missing from the list?.Since the release of K&C UK's stunning new range this must have shot up in popularity.

The poll is a bit biased since most collectors of KC would be drawn to that company by their extensive WWII line. When I started collecting about 15 years ago almost no one was producing WWII. If you are talking about toy soldiers in general (& not just KC) my guess is that Naps are historically more widely collected.
 
would love to pick up a couple of the charge of the light brigade, but unfortunately not available to us out here in the far east..
 
I started out with the OMG scout and one of the Nap CG flagbearers for a taster so to speak. Liked what I saw so kept going... As mentioned in this thread, K&C specialise in WWII so that's the area I've been collecting from mostly. As long as it's a good sculpt and details are there, along with good paintwork, I'll pretty much collect anything from K&C (budget allowing of course)..

I'm in agreement Combat but let's not forget both the Zulu and American Civil Wars. King and Country has provided a small selection of Civil War Sets and Figures in matte and none of the Zulu War. K & C strentgh is their WWII 30mm scale both in figures and ploystone but has not captured the other areas or 32mm either in metal or plastic. Now hopefully I haven't started another major debate take a hard look at what's out there and I'm sure you'll agree I'm far from wrong but I'm sure they'll be others who will disagree......The Lt.

MM,
They can be ordered direct from K&C UK with free worldwide delivery. The diorama in the photos below resides in Dalian, China.

Cheers

Hmmm....Dunno about that Joe. Judging by the constant moans and complaints, I would say that K&C have probably cornered the market in 1/32 scale WWII AFV's.
:D:D:rolleyes::rolleyes::D

I really do like that Diorama you have done with the "CHARGE" - where did you get the base again - I think me once before?

Excellent work.
