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.
I’m one of those lurkers who’s been around for years but very rarely contributes. I would just be happy to see units from Waterloo completed like KGL light infantry, Dutch -Belgian Carabiners and Jäger/legere etc
I love and collect all periods and I'm very excited about all the suggestions above. However I feel that one of the most neglected areas of the hobby is the post 1945 era although Orion have recently brought forth a number of great Vietnam era sets. Some of these may not be commercially viable or could be controversial but I hope that one day Strelets produce some sets for :
Korean War (Commonwealth Troops, USMC and Chinese in winter clothing)
Indochina (French Foreign Legion, Paras, Vietminh, heavy weapons)
Middle East Wars Yom Kippur, Iran / Iraq War (Israelis, Egyptians, Syrians, Iranians, Iraqis)
African Wars in Angola, Rhodesia, Biafra, Congo, etc (African revolutionary armies, South Africans, Cubans, Sealous Scouts, Portuguese, Rhodesians, Biafra, Mercenaries, etc)
Falkland Islands (Argentinians, SAS)
Latin America (Contras, Sandinistas)
Afghanistan (1980s Soviets in winter clothing)
WW3 (1980s British, American and Soviets in NBC clothing)
Perhaps a generic set of "African Revolutionaries" like what Caesar did in the past could work. Or a generic set for the 1950s /1960s with older weapons and then a more modern set for the 1980s? Something similar could be done with a generic "Middle Eastern Arab Army" which could serve for Egypt, Syria, or Iraq.
