  This is a flavour of what you can expect from the monthly Zoom meetings. A great way to get your toy soldier fix if you can't attend the physical / in-person meeting in Ottawa or Toronto. Join the OMSS and access to these meetings and more are a benefit of membership.

  On Parade 2024 is being held this year on Saturday, June 15th, 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., at the Franklin Horner Community Centre, 432 Horner Avenue in Etobicoke. This is a much larger venue including two gyms. You should anticipate more vendors at On Parade this year. If you have yet to attend an OMSS monthly meeting in Toronto you should come and check it out! Meeting dates can be found on the club's website, omss.ca.

  These One-Sixth figures, including their uniforms, weapons, and accessories, are incredibly accurate. A significant amount of work goes into researching the authenticity of the uniforms et cetera. Some collectors do not consider One-Sixth figures to be "toy soldiers". Different courses for different horses.

But, I grew up with Britains Herald and MARX, MPC, TIMMEE, Crescent, Timpo and the like. I ended up just wanting to re-build a part of my childhood collection and now... I have way too much.

  Mark, You need something of interest in your room/background...look at the comparison of Scotts background in the interviews you have done with him and your totally grey room. It is really dull for the viewer. Not a complaint, just some advice/suggestion as you do the split screen interview style on all your materials. Perhaps... less split screen and more full screen of who or what you are covering!? Good interview with Scott!

• 
  @recording_closet91005 ай бұрын

  Not at all, Shermans were good, reliable vehicles, they were incredibly easy to maintain, most models featured a gun stablizer, and they were used in almost every role imaginable. The armor was perfectly serviceable, and the low velocity 75mm gun was fairly good at dealing with most armored threats, as well as infantry and soft-skinned vehicles. The use of 105mm howitzers and the introduction of the high velocity 76mm gun only further added to the lethality and utility of the Sherman.
