Wrong Barrel again!!!
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.

Horsing around
Here is a photo of some of the 54mm Indian Horses out there. My Fav are Marx and BMC. The worst in the world to me is the CTS one. The CTS riders do fit the TSSD "ponies". While I like the TSSD one he is just soooooo big.
Blankets optional on the CTS and TSSD ponies.

EBAY Seller RANT
While looking for a certain Atlantic set for parts I ran across a seller offering the entire set Mint.
Mint ? He states the box has a tear, the figures are off the runner and it is a missing 1 item. It is actually missing 3 items!!!
This self proclaimed Toy Soldier Expert has done it again.

Comments Various Topics
Reading some early reports on the Indy Show. Most say attendance was down. (as was the NJ Show a few weekends ago) Barzso did not preview any product. Austin Miniatures had a few more poses but still no plastic product. They supposedly stated they would have plastic product for OTSN in the Fall Cowboys remain popular it seems as first evidenced by the sadly (IMHO) over sized TSSD Lawmen and Cowboys last year.
Cunnyngham Collectibles has stated "Fear Not!" their Union set will be released BEFORE the planned Marines Set. That is good news to me.
More soon.

Update Pegasus and others
Well previews of the 1/32 Pegasus German Paras are out there on the web. May be here sooner then we expected it seems. I hope they are as good as the Russian Navy set they turned out.
Funny some sites are still saying look for new AIP releases. Ah guys they are here! LOL LOL

Update
Have not had much to say lately. Nothing much to rant about and no new purchases to talk about....yet.
I did pick up a few things at a show in NJ last weekend.
For those who asked the boys in the barrels are....Ron Barzso on the left and a custom one I came up with on the right. I will have more about him in the future.
Right now I am looking forward to releases from Ron Barzso and Paragon. I do not plan to hold my breath waiting for Pegasus Germans.
Soon I hope to have the creative juices following. Please stay tuned.
