Giants of the Hobby

Gerardo from toysoldiersdepot shipped some more 60mm vehicles and equipment to me in super fast time. He provides great service, good prices, and has a nice selection of items. He is also a great supporter of the hobby. Thanks Gerardo for great service.

Randy of Fidelis Models sold me some perfect Trident civilian police and fire department vehicles. He has a huge selection of Trident civilian trucks on special clearance sale. Check out his website for a full listing of them.

Larry of Pegasus has taken the huge risk of licensing the George Pal War of the Worlds movie. Licensing of properties in movies and television has traditionally been seen as too expensive for our hobby. Larry is testing this with the three new Martian war machine models he is making. These models should be for sale at your local hobby shop.

Mrs. Jones from HaT Industrie has been blazing a new trail in 1/72nd scale figures with their recent releases of both First World War figures and particularly British Colonial figures. British Colonial, Victorian armies are long over due in this scale. They have long been popular in other scales and yet colonial wargaming has languished with only a few FFL sets and a couple British sets. Now HaT is doing a huge variety of British Colonial sets and I have moved into Colonial because of them.

I'm interested in ordering from Gerardo.Does he ship to Italy?

They do ship to Italy, but only international priority mail insured to make sure your package arrives safely. Might be a little expensive, but given his good prices and great selection, it is probably worth it.

Hat has also announced on their forums plans to do Seven Years War figures, and is soliciting opinions on which nationalities they should do first.
