Oh dear, I'm getting an odd longing to see a legion following this fellow under Legatus Yogius Ursus :o

 Was all that nudity in HBO's "Rome" down to a misreading of bear for bare?  ;) ;D

Not a great fan of 28mm zombie gunslingers that appear to be all the rage, but if people want to okay it, fair enough!  :D

Yeah, but 10mm zombie gunslingers are a must!

I Cuddlius do not want Teddy Bear Romans.

Do you think Teutoburg Forest would have been different if the Romans had all been sh1**ing in the woods?

I think the Romans were probably better at holding it   together.

Aw, look they're fighting over a honeypot. Or something. They're so cute. No. they're just silly. Silly bear Romans.

There's no way Paddington would use his honey to catapult the enemy....

On the other hand I dont think these teddies are related to Paddington as they are not wearing Duffle Coats and wellies :D
I don't think my wife likes me very much, when I had a heart attack she wrote for an ambulance.

Sorry to be picky mate.
Paddington preferred marmalade, Pooh Bear was the hunny fan.

Yep, I'm hoping to have the first of the sculpts before the end of the year.

The problem is we end up trying to produce things on a dozen different fronts all at the same time.  If I tell the designer to stop everything and go do Nap Brits, then the guys waiting on the WWI extension would have to wait.  If we go do some of the Allies to complete the Wagram list, then the chaps wanting the Brits won't be happy.  If we get the designer to work on all three at the same time, none of them get finished quickly.  If we give him a bigger design budget to work with then I don't get paid...  :(


Surely the real answer is to produce what is most profitable as a priority and add a few of the "extras" in as a bonus.

Nope, not at all. One eventually learns that instant gratification usually lasts, dare I say it, for an instant.  :P :P :P

And can cost you a fortune in the divorce !  :d :d

Met a guy once who had to sell his complete collection of 40's and 50's goodies (really, his house was filled with it!) because they divorced and his wife wanted half of the money it was worth... Got me a cheap 1943 Harley-Davidson out of it though :-[
I also told my wife when I got home with it that she shouldn't count on a divorce as long as we had a garden  ;)

War is looming and Baldrick has a cunning plan.

The Belgians are preparing their tiny defences, the BEF is marching around the home counties refining their drill and marksmanship and Jerry is polishing his spiky bit on top of that funny hat.

The Schliefflen Plan will occur in 2014 ... 10mm early WW1; especially the Royal Navy Division.

I'm looking forward to 2015. Finish my refighting of the Revolutionary and Napoleonic wars I've been on since 1993.

... since 1993 .. Revolution? More like Evolutionary Wars. I think Darwin has a chance in that one.
