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.

Why Mr Stengle
The Stengles as many know are making figures. Young John has choosen sort of a new era which only Gung HO touched on ever so briefly. Mean while the elder Stengle is reissuing original figures. One we noted is the Marx Pack Mule. This item not all that expensive and many originals are ok there. In fact they are available from thru dealers who sell Mexico reissues. Why then go to all the expense and trouble ? And he is not one many people would expect to see making reissues let alone selling them.

Price Increase ?
How do you raise your prices when you haven't produced anything in years ? So this means your OLD STOCK is getting a price raise. Geez........

Fall Figures
Look like a load of NEW figures from manufacturers new and old will be hitting the market this fall. Look for increased prices were are told as China isnt all that hungry for business any more. Look for some manufacturers coping others as to era. Alamo and WW2 . Some are adding to their existing era lines. One interestingly enough is now producing 54 and 60mm limes! And a 1/72 maker is even doing painted figures. This looks like on of the more productive years in awhile. Oh we almost forget the Viet Nam eaa is here too and they ain't made in China so we hear. Open up that wallet.

Scale
Why advertise that your new product fits with Conte ?
And why maintain two separate armies. One foe the old 54mm and one for the newer54/60mm ? I guess the choice is yours. Mr Spock however says it is illogical or you have money to burn. LOL
