With all the endless bad news we get day after day,this hobby and forum sure is a haven from all that.

Can't make up my mind about CS.They have made some excellent vehicles like the 222 and Marder but i thought the Stugs were a let down.However this new armd car looks good.Also their figures have lost that horrible zombie quality they first started out with.Its a shame they are not the same size as K&C as their US Paras look quite good too.

First Legion Naps look very nice to me,some good poses in their British release.Also the new Samurai warrior looks superb,will be interesting to see if they dip their toe into WW2 at some point.

I suspect they will go into wwII i think they have long term plans so will interesting

Yes it will be good to see them get into WW2,think we could see some interesting releases from FL in this area.

if they bring vehicles of the same quality thus far they should really be something but i would worry about the prices

Yes i think if they produce tanks and other vehicles they should be quite something,but i dread think what the prices would be and K&C do top quality there already.

It's all relative. Just as for Napoleonics, if they cost 20% more and you were going to buy 10 figures, you can instead by 8 of theirs. If the difference is only 10%, then you can buy 9. How many tanks do you need anyway.

One Platoon each.
Both lines are very impressive, each in their own way as had been stated here many times.

Maybe you could become a sort of Toy Soldier philanthropist and purchase pieces to give out to those of us suffering from TS collecting disease. I'm thinking maybe some sort of "Foundation for the Betterment of Toy Soldier Collectors"?

Ahh price, there is that. But the quality!! Can you imagine FL WWII vehicles done in the Russian painting style as they did their Napoleonics? They will rival the Honour Bound Gold series! I just hope they make good choices in selecting which armoured vehicles to make.

Long ago I remember somebody here giving a link to some St. Petersburg painted WWII figures and a motorcycle, but I cannot find it.

By the the sounds of it FL may well be avoiding ww2. I think after the Naps they will go for subjects less well covered which makes sense for max sale potential,i dont think the Naps will be/are flying off the shelves (i may be wrong),probably due to price,a subject already well covered and what this thread was originally about,most aren't going to change their collections

It's all but certain that FL will be entering WWII very shortly.

I don't know what sounds you are talking about but they are not apparant to the rest of us. On the contrary, I think FL has demonstrated that they are not afraid to tackle whatever subject matter they think they can do well and that covers quite a bit. Price has been covered and its effect quite overstated, as also covered here. How many times can one say quality versus quantity? For those that prefer 4 pretty good figures to 3 extremely good ones, those options are available. There are many others of us that would opt for a insignificantly smaller number of better figures. FL has given every indication possible that it is committed to quality Napoleonics and they just keep getting better. It has also noted that it has a number of exciting new lines in the works and only one has so far been announced. I frankly wouldn't be surprised at anything they come up with.
