Re: March London show pics The new modern figures I'm referring to are to the right. British something on patrol.

From Rob's pictures at the London Show. Top picture, to the right: http://www.treefrogtreasures.com/forum/showthread.php?28347-March-London-show-pics/page3 Looks like British soldiers on Patrol in Afghanistan or Iraq! EDIT: Here's the picture I'm referring to:

Re: March London show pics Wow...thanks Rob. These photos are truly above and beyond the call of duty. Question - was those some new Modern era figures I spotted from Figarti (I believe British)?

Just to be clear, I can understand if it's not economically feasible for the line to continue despite the promise that it would. But if that is that case - and we're not there yet - it would be nice to have some kind of acknowledgment, if not apology, from K&C. At the risk of derailing this...

Andy was quite definitive about their being a Pirate Junk and Chinese pirates at last year's West Coaster, both in the public presentation and prior to that speaking in his room to a smaller audience (me). I believe since then he said on the board he was re-evaluating the junk because of size...

Rick, or anyone at Figarti (or on this board)...can you please post some pictures and/or instructions for how to assemble the Rail Carrier? It's not evident how to put it together, and I'm afraid to damage what I can already tell is a delicate item. Thanks in advance, Mark

I voted for Medieval, but I would have liked to have seen an Afghanistan/Modern Warfare line. Between the Elite forces and the new Heroes set it wouldn't be such a big leap.

Thanks everyone - just ordered mine and it's evidently on it's way. I do worry about assembling the two pieces without damaging it. It was hard enough putting the few pieces of the Karl together, and I still haven't been able to connect the BR loco to it's tender. Printed instructions would...

Does that mean HB finally has the Rail Carrier in stock? Also, does the carrier come with any figures?

Just got a newsletter from Sierra talking about K&C at the Westcoaster. In it says"Sons of the South: the uniform colors just look great, and leap out at you. On display they looked magnificent." Did they mean Sons of Empire, or were there new Civil War figures on display?

Not to burst anyone's bubble, but I think the Typhoon is the next warbird up for production. From Andy's post a while back: "On the immediate upcoming production schedule we have (VIII) Messerschmitt 262 (IX) P47 Thunderbolt (X) Hawker Typhoon And let’s not forget… Junkers 87 “Stuka” P38...

Just wanted to say what a great idea I that Help for Heroes charity piece is. A really nice gesture on the part of W. Britains, and one that I hope other manufacturers will emulate. On a more selfish note, any chance this means more modern/Afghanistan figures...maybe even a new line? After...

While I love the look of the new forum, it seems to take longer and longer for pages to load on my browser - the latest edition of Mozilla Firefox, on a PC. (It's slow on the ipad as well, although that's harder for me to gauge). It's not just pages with lots of photos, although that doesn't...

Is that hanger going to be a scenic that's released? It would be a nice addition to the RAf am LW line. The WWI planes look nice, ESP next to the Kaiser staff Car. First time I've considered the latter.

Ah...I feel stupid not noticing that. Especially since it's labeled as such online. I think what threw me off was that I was so impressed with the other Panzer IV's, particular with the Schurzen. Was Schurzen not used in North Afrika? If it was, my question would then be whether CS would...

Will there be any more new AK releases? Specifically, what's the chance of a desert version of the Panzer IV?

The bottom picture with the AK forces feels like it's out of Raider's of The Lost Ark. Really great work.

Definitely one of the more interesting dispatches. I thought there would be fighting Italians and Aussies to go along with the new tank. I was starting to rethink it given the small production runs of the tank, glad for those that have been clamoring for Italians that Andy chose to go there...

I'd be very interested in pieces from any of the Arab Israeli wars. Would be yet another nice fit with the Desert Village. Also...what is this Hunting Tiger I've been hearing about? Can't find a link...

Thanks, Rob. I would not be surprised if we finally saw some fighting Italians to go with these. Maybe some fighting Aussie's too. Although they are limited releases and we've had quite a bit of AK/EA stuff this far.
