Re: Battle resumes

Very nice figures. Can't wait to ad them to my already great collection. Happily we have Strelets to continue this great hobby. Carry on, and thanks for the daily update. Other companies don't, wile we in,other times, have always supported them. Love this WSS range and will buy them whenever availible.

Re: Battle resumes

I was just remembering back in the 1960's when, as a kid, I bought my first 1/72 soldiers, both Giant and Airfix. We would play with them for hours, reenacting the history that we had learned from books. When I look at the gorgeous models that you are producing now, well......You've come a long way, baby! As an avid student of 15th through 18th century history, I am hoping that you will continue to create sets from these periods of history. I would love to see your company do something with the French and Indian War, as we refer to it here in the states, and the American Revolution, with Morgan's Riflemen, the Blackwatch, and Tarleton's and Lee's Legions, to name just a few. A few sets of eastern Indians, the Iroquois and the Mohicans, would be fantastic, as well as the French Voyageurs......and I could go on and on, begging for you to keep this creative streak up{:-)) Thank you, Stretlets.

Not looking, no use in the desert......

Re: Battle resumes

Nice figs although of a quite limited troop.... austrians would have been more welcomed.

It would been nice to see more charging poses too, but the officers and generals are super-super-well done.

And they probably won't be riding on camels; It gives me the hump!

Re: Battle resumes

Not my area of expertise, but these guys look as though they might be dressed for the desert.

Alan,
Is it your birthday? You kept asking politely and they heard you. No doubt your lips will be watering at the idea of SAS LRDG in the not too distant!

Re: British Tank crew summer dress, ......just a bit good in the desert !

James , politeness and good manners cost nothing, and asking for a sets that are gaps in the big WW2 market means they find receptive ears, now I will buy a few, paint them up , do a few conversions, and keep asking for the LRDG/SAS sets 1 ,2 and 3 ;-)

Re: Battle resumes

Another group that has never been covered before, and beautifully modeled. Great pieces.

Re: Battle resumes

I'm very interested to see what Haron will give us in the way of Jacobite cavalry. But in the absence of dedicated figures for a very small unit, I see possible stand ins for Baggot's Hussars here. Can't find it now but did I also see a figure wearing a cuirass under his coat? Might be useful.
