My thoughts and opinions on the 54mm/60mm Plastic Toy Soldier collecting hobby. Yes I seemingly rant at times and we explained in one of the first posts that we would be. So if you do not like that sort of stuff we suggest you leave NOW. Also look for some thoughts on history, informational posts and a bit of fun stuff from time to time.

High Prices
Although another Alamo set has entered the list for 2014 It may not be the year of Alamo figures after all as AIP releases War Elephants in March 2014. At $25.00 a set (5 sets) collectors are screaming and one other manufacturer has sort of waived that tried old banner stating Support All your Manufacturers efforts. In the past TSSD even made a statement to that general effect. With prices already high form the various new Russians dealers like OWN and Asian company X-Force. one has to wonder if CHINA will soon raise the ante on CTS, TSSD, AIP (regular production) Paragon and the other so-called regular dealer/manufacturers . In any case we find $25.00 a pop for an elephant, special release or not to be be high. Our wallet will remain closed. WE wonder too how TSSD made out with the sale of their reportedly incorrect War Elephant ?
