Thank you for making so many new 1/72 sets in 2009. I have many new RedBox Boxer Rebellion men who are happy in my home. Just today, Santa delivered Italian Bersaglieri. Wow, they are handsome little fellows!
All of you businessmen make us happy with your many eras sets, and thank you for my Colonial favorites ... :-)
I wish continued success to you all, and many more 1/72 sets for you to sell and us to buy. Haron, Orion, RedBox and DDS - you men are all great and appreciated. Thank you for making the world a better place and much fun. - Dave

Wow Haron!
The Ghurkas picture looks wonderful. These men will be a welcome addition and very original in our hobby. Nice poses and excellent details - very authentic. Very excited to see the British Naval Brigade, too.
I just love all of the sailors, also. All of them are my favorites equally. I have much fun with them all.
Thank you again! - Dave :-)
No problem.

Bravo with those poses, Haron!
The sennet straw hats look great. I love the hand-to-hand fighting poses for the barricades. Look out Orion Chinese Boxers. The full effect of the "International Delegation's Army, Navy, and Civilian Volunteers" is about to knock at the Imperial Cities' Gates.
Ever since seeing Charlton Heston's epic 1963 Movie, "55 Days at Peking" in my very young childhood, I have been dreaming of re-creating the seige in 1/72 soft plastic. And now, I/we can. Almost 1/2 a century later is a long time to wait. But you gentlemen made it happen. Thank you for doing it - It's a Wonderful Life.

I really love your sculpting style. I wish you would do WWII US Navy sailors and Construction Battalions (SEABEES). That is something never done but very useful.
I would like sailors in caps and helmet/lifejackets for use on bases or boats, and some in fighting poses (like a sailor in dress whites and 'dixie' cap firing a .50 cal MG on a stand to used at Pearl Harbor). Also sailors running around, working on things, cleaning, carrying duffel bags, etc. to be used on bases or ships.
And the SEABEES would be useful on every island battle for the whole Pacific WAR in WWII.
If this interests you, I can forward many pictures and pose drawings and pose ideas.
We don't plan to do this theme.
Good to hear. That will save me a lot of money. I hope all the manufacturers continue to make ancients, medievels, and Napoleonics, and WWII Germans, so I don't need to spend any money! ;-)
