A brother of a hobbyist friend of mine is going through some very serious medical procedures at the moment. It is putting serious financial pressure on his family at a time when they have a lot more important things to be thinking about.
Some friends and I have supplied some toy soldier items – often limited or unreleased items – for Ebay auction this week, with all proceeds going directly to the family involved. The link to the ‘Love For A Brother’s Brother Charity Thing’ auctions is here.
Check it out to see if there is anything that takes your fancy and know that if you do indulge, that it is for a good cause.
If the items for sale are not quite your thing then feel free to contribute to the gofundme charity fundraiser if you like.
Thanks for reading.

Thanks Frank.
Axiom from Magpie and Old Lead is doing all of the Ebay work, so he deserves the lions share of the credit.

Now that is what it means to be in a community… I’ll be putting my hands in my pocket, one way or’t other.

Wow, those are pretty nice. And pretty old school. I see the “Space Marine with Guitar” is in the mix, a real relic of the days when the Company took itself a little less seriously 😉

Folks have been very generous in the figures that they donated. As you mentioned NSA, there really are some very desirable items available. I have an eye on the marine with the guitar myself, it would look right at home in Château Sho3box…
Some more items are due to go up in a few days too I believe.

Yeah, the prices varied in ways that I wouldnt have been able to predict, but the ogryn hybrid did go for a very nice price. I didnt see that coming, even though it is a nice model.
And it went to a good cause, which is great. Hopefully you can track one down TMW.
