WWI possiblities

Hello Forum,
Would there be any interest in the following figure sets?
1914 Serbian Infantry
WWI Ottoman Infantry in Summer & winter dress
1914 Austro-Hungarian Cavalry
Russian Artillery serving a 42-line fortress/siege gun Pattern of 1877 (or any other gun of that matter)
Enjoy your hobby!!

Re: WWI possiblities

For me:

1914 Serbian Infantry
1914 Austro-Hungarian Cavalry

The only other Serbians made are sub-standard, and Austro Hungarian Cavalry is lacking altogether.

Regards,
Andrew

Re: WWI possiblities

Yes these are all needed sets and I hope Strelets will consider them in the near future. Some Bulgarian and Romanian Infantry would also be very welcome !

They all sound like good ideas to me. And I would add Bulgarian, Romanian, Montenegrin and Greek infantries.

Re: WWI possiblities

Yes to all of the above! The war in the east has been sadly neglected for so long, the balance needs redressing!!
WW1 Russian artillery is a good call. I don't know much about Russian guns of the first world war apart from the M10 Schneider 122mm howitzer and the Putilov field gun. I know the Russians lacked Heavy artillery. It would also work well with Russian civil war stuff too.

My thoughts exactly.

Realistically the Serbian Infantry and the Austro-Hungarian Cavalry should sell well enough to help sponsor one / some of the other sets - especially if done in a way to help converters.

E. g. the Serbian footgear was also worn by Bulgarians, their uniforms were similar to many other armies, the cavalry could have uses for earlier conflicts, etc.

Re: WWI possiblities

I'll tell you what would be great - a set of Austro-Hungarian Honved cavalry. Have Strelets ever considered producing such?

Re: WWI possiblities

I would like to see some WW1 Serbians and Russo Turkish war Serbians...
