Hello
 Replicants released yet another set of MTD Comanches  So that now makes 2 sets.  Some photos out on the web of the first set with yet still different mounting positions.

LOD will have new figure sets in the fall for Barszo's last Playset.  You can pre-order now.  See the LOD site.  They will also release a fun Christmas set.

Paragon will release it new set of Sioux Indians hopefully at Texas Show in May,  In the Fall they will release their final Alamo set.

As TSSD is up for sale we assume production has shut down

CTS also looks like no new production.

AIP also looks like nothing new

Conte is restocking Metal sets.  No word yet if any news sets plastic or metal are forth coming.  See his new site on the web.

Sorry for those who ask, no word on Austin Miniatures.

Last item.  Playset Magazine has new videos and books coming.  See their site

New Columnists

So most of the new production has been coming out of Russia and China some one just wrote in an article in a UK mag.  Check it out LOD, TSSD, and Paragon all USA based firms have been churning things out pretty steadily. 

Replicants Mtd Commanches

So what happened to this figures.  In any case very different set. I have seen them mtd on on their horse by many collectors.  All different.   Improvement needed ?  I say yes .....

Yes more Conte

Hello
  Conte has a new site up.  Links are everywhere so I will not re post them. Seems his return has sparked one hell of a fire storm.  But that's not my business ..........

Posting Rant

Love to see folks post photos on FB and elsewhare on the Web  But please post more information.  Like maker, scale, etc..............

Too much

Two boring reports on an Italian maker who does F & I figures.  One was bad enough  TMI.  Ah but the second one contained an interview by the maker. Wow.  And ample parts of the first review.  Along with Kudos to the King in PA>   Next  we will see another review by Uncle Thor.     Sigh....

More New Kids in Town

So you have two, count em, two Marx Playsets and you open a page or site and you now a self proclaimed expert.  Or perhaps you purchased a box of some of the new figures out there and you are are now an expert reviewer.  Maybe not last but certainly as foolish you start using YOUTUBE... to show how much you know, how knowledgeable you are and all the manufacturers you know.  Ain't Social media grand.  lol lol
