The title of this thread does not imply there are Naval subjects heading our way,just in case you thought i had advance knowledge!.

So as it creeps towards 'That time of the month' when all us 8yr olds start thinking whats Andy going to come up with next (who am i kidding we think about that ALL month don't we?:D)whats on the agenda do we think?.

Tradition tells us that Arnhem and September are now an enjoyable mix,i'm still catching up with my Brit Paras but am hoping for some Glider riding reinforcements,maybe that Mortar team everyone wants?.A lot of people are guessing a Firefly will roll into action?.

What do you think guys,let the guessing game begin!;)

Aah Rob the year goes quick but not that quick. Last year I think Arnhem was November and December. Our first glimpse of them in photos was around the Chicago show time in September.
My personal guess is that the next dispatches will be FJs but that may be wishful thinking.
If it is FJs, say Normandy, what vehicle do you think will come with them?
A new schwimmwagen? A Kett? A kubelwagen? I think it will be something small and in keeping with the FJ line.

Ah yes you may well be right there James.Now the big FJ question is whether Andy will stick with Crete or move to Normandy,we can't lose to be honest but i am really into the Crete versions at the moement.If he goes to Normandy James you will have a positive army of FJ's!.

A scwimm or Kubel would be a good guess,however i'd love my next Kubel to be an AK version.I'm itching to place my next order with Lord Tony of upper Northshire but am awaiting whats being retired first.

It's got to be the announcement of the eagerly-awaited two new ranges.

North West Frontier
Streets Of Old Durham Town
 
If the US M12 get retired then i'm all over it. It's a great value piece when compared to the way recent vehicles have increased rapidly in price. You get 5 figures plus a really great vehicle.
 
Ditto on that.Can't let that one slip under the radar,some much needed Firepower in Normandy.

It's been awhile on the "secret weapon" series so that's my guess. Maybe some Luftwaffe figures or German soft skinned support vehicles from any front? Highly recommend the M12 if you don;t have it:cool:.
 
Well I have been waiting for the mystery tiger since word from Andy about it months ago, but I would settle for any new Normandy stuff, I would really like k&c to do some more buildings or accessories for our dios,

and Capitalron if I remember correctly last month you Naps guys got quite a haul didn't you??:).....Sammy

Something small and in keeping with the FJ line...hmmmmm...a Junkers JU52? :rolleyes:

I'm going to go for:

- Normandy FJs
- Schwimmwagen with FJs (Normandy)
- Grant or Lee (Desert)
- Pershing

and for my obscure guesselection:

- M22 Locust
- Tetrarch
- and finally a Bradley / Abrams / Warrior / Challenger / Leopard II (thinking of you Ron!;)) 5 vehicle bumper pack which will be competatively priced at around the £50 / $100 mark. :)

Oh, and a 95th Rifle's Officer, to keep the Napoleonic Collectors happy :D.
