I support the call for
6. French chasseurs alpins for 1940 (Norway and Alps) - they had a different cut of uniform from the line infantry and could include ski troops.
9. Dutch for 1940. Again, can't believe they have never been done.
10. Belgians for 1940. Superficially similar to the 1940 French, but the uniform had some differences in detail, offices wore British-style service dress and weapons were different.
12. French African infantry for 1940-43
13. French Goumiers.
19. Hungarian infantry in summer uniforms.
20. Greek infantry for 1940-41.
23. Yugoslav Partisans.
30. Chinese KMT infantry, but in domestic and not in US equipment
32. Japanese SNLF... the actual marines who fought in dozens of actions all over the Pacific.

plus

BEF 1940 full set

French Vichy forces

US and British artillery crews - if cleverly done, can serve in European and Pacific theaters.

German artillery crews in caps and ankle boots - if cleverly done, can serve as DAK, Gebirgsjäger, and 1943-45 standard troops

Another unfeasible list from the always hungry plastic-figure crowd.

- Polish infantry, heavy weapons & cavalry 1939 (sorry to say, FtF sets are not enough)

- US tank crew summer/winter (Pacific/Mediterranean 1941-45 and NW Europe 1944/45)
- Commonwealth tank crew summer (North Africa/Mediterranean 1940-45)
- Marching troops for major combatants and prominent campaigns & battles (worn and fresh grunts loosely marching, no rank and file).
- Civilians!!! Covering different european populations, China, SE-Asia and North Africa.

... :sweat_smile:

I am a bit surprised that nobody yet asked for romanian mountain troops. An elite that fought from 41 to 45, over 5 divisions worth of troops, always in the front line. Well regarded by both germans and soviets.

Would love to see a set of Yugoslavian (Tito's) Partisans, so that I could finally recreate Operation Rösselsprung (1944).

I'm a bit surprised that nobody made them (except for those 2 or 3 figures included in the Caesars 'Partisans in Europe' set), regarding that by the end of the war they numbered around 800,000 soldiers and are considered Europe's most effective anti-Axis resistance movement.

Wow I love the suggestions even stuff i havent thought of before!!!

Strelets have certainly reenergised the toy soldier game ,love the new stuff great to paint and play with,
Dearly would love even half of these suggestions!!!!

Japanese Special Naval Landing Forces landed on many islands and had a distinctive uniform.

Kriegsmarine Landing Party, they landed in North America, USA, Canada, and Newfoundland, to drop off spies, and to monitor the weather.

Dutch Colonial KNIL fought off the Japanese along with the US Army on Java.

Like a lot of the suggestions. For me the most wanted would be

1. BEF British 1940.
2. Dutch 1940.
3. Free French colonial troops.
4. Italian colonial troops.
5. Italians for N Africa, could have different heads for bersaglieri.
6. Communist Chinese.
7. Nationalist Chinese.
8. French motorised troops 1940.
9. FFL for Norwegian campaign.
10. Chasseurs Ardennais.

Kradschutzen! A set of easy assembly motorcycle sidecar units with mounted and dismounted crews. A similar set for Italian Bersaglieri in North Africa, with some combat engineers to support them, and any US set that isn't all Thompsons, Grease guns and carbines.

More U.S. Navy figures, especially dressed as Landing Party Sailors like from the movie "Sand Pebbles."

And then other nationalities' Navies.

Pegasus Russian fighting sailors are done.

Revell's German Sailors lack action figures.

Very impressive lists and some great ideas.
My favourites are :
1) Tito`s Partisans which could really be two sets: Partisans with motley assortment of military & civilian clothing for the early period and the more regular look towards the end of the war.
2) Romanian Mountain Troops.
3) Hungarians - several sets -perhaps Strelets might consider covering them in the same way they`ve done the Japanese with Infantry Heavy Weapons set, artillery and various types of uniform. Certainly a set for the Battle of Budapest would be very much appreciated.

4) Greek Mountain Troops and Greek Mountain Artillery. The upcoming M1906 65mm Mountain gun
could be done with a set of Greek mountain gunners.

5) Italian Askari both Eritean & Libyan

To add to the list
Ethiopian Patriot Army / Resistance fighters
