 Hi...My Playmates CLASSIC SET of Star Trek figures arrived yesterday after waiting sixteen days postage from Ohio USA. The figures of Captain James T. Kirk and his crew are just fabulous- they are very detailed and accurate.

Captain Kirk, First Officer Spock, Dr McCoy, Mr Scott - the Engineer.

The full set of seven Star Trek figures by Playmates.

Well- that is my news for today.
Stay well Friends. KEV.

BRITAINS Farm Toys.

Hi...I've decided to collect Britains Farm Toys once again. My first purchase however this time is not Britains - it is a 1/32nd VOLVO Tractor model made by YAXON.  

The VOLVO Tractor model is very nice and it is also rare and collectible.

I've purchased a packet of Britains Sheep- they are great toys for sure.

I've also purchased some Britains Cows.
I'm particularly interested in the Farmer figure- I intend to carve away the walking stick and add full length trousers with 'Green Stuff' and re-paint the figure.

I've purchased this Britains OAK Tree model.
I intend to make up a small Farm on my Study Cabinet shelf- must have trees.

Well- that is my news for Monday night.
Stay well Friends. KEV.

STAR TREK - Miniture StarShip Battles.

 Yesterday I had four star ship battles with the ENTERPRISE NCC-1701 and the Klingon Cruiser. The Enterprise has Phasers and Photon Torpedoes and the Klingon ship - blasters. The Enterprise won all four games using my second version of the rules I wrote.


The ships measure 4.5" long.

Best Wishes. KEV.

STAR TREK- Display of TOS Starships.

 Hi...Thought to show my Playmates ENTERPRISE NCC-1701 and Klingon ships. The Enterprise model is very nice and also features sound effects and lighting. Today I'll be having a Game with my smaller 4.5" ships-the Enterprise NCC-1701 versus the Klingon Cruiser. I wrote my own rules- we'll see how they go.



Well- that is my news for this evening- stay tuned for further STAR TREK updates. Cheers. KEV.

STAR TREK- Klingon Cruiser Model.

Some while back I assembled and painted a KLINGON Cruiser. I cannot recall the manufacturer of the kit- it may be Revel or perhaps a Monogram. The Cruiser is comparable in size to the 18inch ENTERPRISE model which I'll soon have here for display.

The KLINGON Cruiser.

That is my news today- Best Wishes. KEV.

STAR TREK- Classic Toy Figure Set.

 Hi...I've ordered from the US a Classic Star Trek Figure set made by Playmates. The set should take some time to arrive from the US. I really like these Playmates figures which I've had before. The set depicts the crew of Captain James T. Kirk - all from the original 1966 Star Trek.


That is my news for today- stay well Friends- Cheers. KEV.

STAR TREK - Enterprise NCC-1701 Model.

 Hi...I've ordered a STAR TREK model- the ENTERPRISE NCC-1701. My liking for Star Trek goes back to 1966- though we didn't have a TV then so I had to wait till the mid 1970s to watch the TV Episodes in Black and White. I've bought the model with the view to have a small display in my Study Cabinet.





Stay well my Friends. Cheers. KEV.
