Collecting Toy Soldiers – Page 18

Michael Nash presents: Nate Fogt’s of Nate’s Garage

All items seen in facebook as reported in the Chicago Toy Soldier Show… items exposed and sold in less than an hour… and no wonder!… Enjoy!

Scott Lesch’s Own

Splendid castings. AGW or not involved they are beautiful Toy Soldiers on their own. I wish I could do moulds and cast my own figures but never got even close to that part of the hobby. Too late at my age… better buy unpainted casts and paint them if I found the time!… Silly me!… I thought that once retired I would have lots and lots of free time… it is not so (you have been warned!). LOL

Rifles from Hilditch

Less than 54mm (series “B”) and still impressing.

I was personal yesterday, maybe even too personal… well, I can always edit the thing if I want… I do not know if being too personal is a bonus or a malus…

So, today let’s go back to the main line of this webpage… toy soldiers and those who enjoy them.

Here we go again!

Excuse me if you have already seen this pic (my own for a change) 75mm Customized Playmobil (Just the headgear I guess)

Congratulations to the British. The civic attitude was paramount and those public and privately professionally involved gave a lesson on “how it is done”. There is no better example to compare. Long live the King!

This webpage would again be alive as from today with the usual business of giving you your daily ration (or dose) of Toy Soldiers. Cheers.

Toy Soldiers

Sometimes I tend to forget that there are brand new toy soldiers to buy… silly of course… but when I see an example in Facebook I get it and copy paste here for your daily dose. Enjoy

Paul Watson’s Military Band!

Paul uses thid pic sometimes to celebrate the entrance of new members in our FaceBook site (or Group)… yes… mytoysoldiersandme … 450 members from ’round the world. I am much busy nowadays and keeping the webpage alive everyday consumes my time so I do not post a lot in FaceBook… but other members do so regularly!

A great hobby!

Tony Dilley’s Cavalry

Sorry I forgot to include the mounted soldiers on last day post… here they are… and truly impressive too… sometimes I complain to my wife about the lack of market in ANDORRA concerning Toy Soldiers… probably knowing myself this is probably for the better!… lol

The rest of Dilley’s compulsory purchase…

Toy Soldiers BUY!: He could not resist adding them to the collection

You must understand us collectors!… he found those and could not resist buying them… that’s how it goes. For once John Lennon was right when he said the evident enough statement “life is what happens to you while you’re busy making other plans”… lol … it really works that way.

A Classic

Good Old Britains!… I only had a set in my life… but an awesome experience!… So you will forgive me if from time to time I do post some venerable items more seen in auctions nowadays…

Toy Soldiers this time

The ability of John Clarke to produce Toy Soldiers for AGW never ceases to surprise me… they are full of taste and “allure” as a Frenchman would say (I guess…) So enjoy!
