Pre ordering the D Day stuff? (1 Viewer)

[Rob]

So guys,how many of you have/will be ordering the forthcoming figures and LCA?.So far i've preordered the LCA and the first two figures sets...but i feel like i'm likely to cave this week and order the other two sets as well.When i spoke to Mike at K&C UK this week he hoped they would arrive mid June,but should be here for the London show.

I have somehow badly overspent for the summer already. I have picked up a few Figarti and Honour Bound and CS pieces (mostly on sale) before they disappeared, and also pre-ordered the Figarti Red Bull and Honour Bound Remcke and the winter foxhole. I have no $$$ or room left for the LCA or British soldiers. And I have to scrape together $$$ for the K&C Canadian soldiers and the Cromwell in July and August which are must haves.

Joining the Forum this month, I have enjoyed reading all of comments on this forum and have learned a lot from you guys about the quality of manufacturers other than K&C, but it is proving to be a costly lesson.

Thats the joy/problem with this hobby,we sure are spoilt for choice!.Its sometimes difficult to stay focussed without getting sidetracked,i can only do it by the fact i've been hoping Andy would return to the Brits in Normandy and here they are!.However when K&C announce the next wave of Arnhem releases we will see just how focussed i really am!

Yes they should be around for sometime,at least a couple of years i'd think,so plenty of time.

You and I are plagued with the same afflictions. I too have zero willpower to resist Commonwealth D-Day and Arnhem pieces.......and usually their SS opposition. My willpower is still strong enough that I only dabble in other WWII theatres and even other eras like the Napoleonics and Crusades. Those pieces really have too be special for me to purchase. Bottom line.........I need a part time job to afford my habit. Perhaps instead of calling this a forum we need to call it a support group for addicts!

My recommendation is for EVERYONE TO PRE-ORDER NOW - before Rob starts buying !

I doubt there will be many left after that frenzy !

Did the LCA

 

[jazzeum]

I picked up all the new DD sets and they are outstanding. Collectors will be pleased. The faces are quite interesting and everything is well sculpted. Just a super job

Nice one Steve,i've preordered some and am picking some up at the show in London on the 27th,that way i don't come home empty handed !.I agree with you that after waiting for K&C to return to Brits/Commonwealth in Normandy it was well worth the wait,superb releases and I can't wait to get them.

Cheers mate
