Toy Soldier Collector & Historical Figures - December - January 2021

En este asunto

Toy Soldier Collector International prides itself on being the "go to" magazine for collectors of toy and model figures of all shapes and sizes. Primarily focused on figures around 1:32nd scale (the traditional collectable "toy soldier" size) the magazine also covers larger kits and smaller (down to 40mm) figures. TSCI encompasses in-depth reviews on all recent releases within the hobby of toy soldier collecting, from the “high end” pre-painted museum quality metal figurines through to the unpainted plastic figures still played with today by both children and adults, and of course everything in between.

Whether your interest is to simply collect stunning models straight “out of the box”, or you want to paint your own figures and kits, or even do a little wargaming, then TSCI has something for you. Alongside the myriad of reviews and news, written by some of the hobby's most respected reviewers, TSCI also features stunning full colour articles covering both military history (illustrated with figures and original photographs) and articles on the history of the hobby, from makers no longer in production and antique figures through to insights on today's manufacturers, retailers and global events/shows
