Welcome to the Strelets Forum. Please feel free to discuss any aspect of 1/72 scale plastic figures, not simply Strelets. If you have any questions about our products then we will answer them here.
On the one hand, I would be very happy for the hard working Strelets crew if they could spend an hopefully relaxed holiday in the sun. :sunglasses: :+1:
On the other hand, it would be exciting to see previews of one of Strelets many ranges. :wink: :smile:

D-Day, when Pegasus bought out the stunning, mind blowing US set, I had hoped they would follow with an equally good set of Brit/Canadians, alas we still wait. But D-Day did have a "look"Commando`s in Berets armed with Vickers-k machine guns and big bergens, Infantry overloaded with all manner of equipment including bicycles, another WW2 subject done by no one .

Hi dear Allan,

Proper French fusiliers, centrum company iso flank company, so no crossbelts, no epaulettes, just a single belt with cartridge case and bayonet for 1813-1815 is high on my wishlist.
Made sure I was the first this week, LRDG vehicle crews would be wonderful..
I was up watching this space. Didn't want to steal your thunder. I've no need because you request the subjects that I want too . . . . . except maybe the odd camel.
Strelets say that they don't sell but I'm sure they will boost the attraction of any 'Desert Set' Including LRDG. My Dad said you couldn't move for the 'ugly, grumpy, spitting beasts. But exceedingly useful for 'blending in' with the natives. The 'Chevrolet' was always a giveaway :(
