WotC - Wizards of the Coast (makers of AAM)
FoW, WotC, Old Glory, Peter Pig, Plastic Soldier company, Skytrex, Zvesda and Gaming models all make 15mm WWII miniatures……and Ive built them all.
Guys, first time poster here.
I’ve been a long time A&A fan, especially the Naval Miniatures. About 13 years ago, I was offered a giant lot of A&A miniatures (many many hundreds of pieces, maybe 500 pieces if not more) for a whopping 100 bucks.
There’s a ton of stuff, everything from an ME-262, to a King tiger, a few Tiger 1’s, a few SS Panther’s, Shermans galore, tons of stuff. Even a Higgins boat landing craft.
I had never played, and to this day I have yet to play. I have kept them around because I desire to learn and play, but I also realize that players are few and far between these days, in general.
I’m wondering what to do with all of it. I know these have retained value over the years. There is the potential for sale but I’m not sure yet. Keep it and take the time to learn/find other players or move it on to someone who already has that foundation in place?
I will post pictures tomorrow potentially, there’s a lot of units here to separate by nation.
@RisingSun I had similar experience, I was big into the naval miniatures but couldn’t afford both. I bought a lot on ebay a year or so ago and have played a few games. It is not difficult to learn especially if you are familiar with the navy side, it’s pretty similar but includes facing. I think it’s a great game and wish I had collected it some when it was active.
