Prizes

My guess would be that any meaningful King and Country prize, like their 88, would help draw a lot of entries in a competition.

FOV's

I think that many people would be pleased with FOV Enthusiast grade stuff. You can never have too many. Especially some of the newer ones since not everyone has gotten them yet.

The KC 88mm is a fantastic suggestion.

There was also a new soldier line at Michigan Toy Soldier Company that one of the owners created. It looked very promising, I forget the name though

How about a gift certificate so the winner can buy whatever they want. Be it land vehicles, planes or figures. I know I have given people gift certificates for Christmas, birthdays and other occassions. Gift certificates make sure the present is always the right color, the right size and it never has to be exchanged because it is inappropriate.
Happy collecting!!!

The 1:32scale Corgi Mosquito, now being sold at BCA. It appears to be a diecast monster with alot of accessories and moving parts!

I could go with an Extreme Metal King Tiger, or a gift certificate to an online retailer would do nicely.. :D

The King & Country 88mm gun is officially retired and sold out at the company HQ. I sold my last three 88's at the Hackensack Toy Soldier show this past Sunday and have two each of the gun crew sets leftover. I spoke to Andy Neilsen last night and told him I had some leftover crews, to which he replied "Don't worry, the prime mover has not been retired yet and the crews will come in handy later this year." I think another K & C artillery piece is on the way folks..................
