  1. I've read Andy Patridge's paean for the lost charm of 'Toy' soldiers ... and thought it was extremely good. There are times when I feel much the same sense of loss.

  2. I think that's why I'm about 400 sets adrift on the small scale new production, with regard to keeping up with new issues, yet have started getting into large scale, most of today's buys were over 40mm it used to be under!

    Also got a really nice Jimson tank, in the C21/T/Tarheel/Blue Box vein.
