    DAK032-DAK037 British 8th Army Infantry

    Must confess I'm disappointed with these figures. The Sten was a very rare beast in the Western Desert, the Thompson SMG being much more the standard issue. The Bren gunner is wrong. The correct firing position was for the left hand to be placed over the top of the butt rather than the peculiar...

    Crete

    I can understand people's interest in other theatre's of war in WWII, but I was greatly assured by Ken's remarks that his current WW II priority is developing the NW Europe collection theme 1944-45 as I have already got some of the early German and US releases. I hope in due course the...

    KING & COUNTRY Dispatches -- March 2016

    Great selection of releases this month. The 8th Army tank crew and 2pdr look very nice. Perhaps - hopefully - in the future we will see a BEF version of the 2-pdr and a desert version of the Sahariana.

    1. The winter German paras pictured last week (and the Sahariana). 2. The 8th Army Tank crew and new "Monty" figure 3. More in hope than anticipation - the Daimler armoured car in N-W Europe markings.

    Where Is The New Britains 88MM Gun

    Perhaps it might appear in the Spring catalogue. I don't think the Schwimwagen is available yet. We'll just have to be patient!

    TC009/010 German Waffen SS Tank Crew Now in Stock

    Would like to seecond the request for Heer versions of the Waffen-SS tank crew. As all the armour models you produce currently carry Heer divisional insignia these figures are going to look somewhat out of place - or are you planning an extension of the "Stalingrad" range forward in time into...

    My FL and FOV

    Great pity that both FOV have stopped production and 21st Century have both gone out of business. Get their models while you can!

    1/30th British Comet Tank

    The Comet never served in Korea. The main battle tank there was the Centurion. together with some Cromwells in the reece role and the Churchill.

    KING & COUNTRY Dispatches -- February 2016

    Hopefully K & C will do a RN Corsair - perhaps with associated flight deck crew like the Japanese carrier crew range that accompanied the Zero.

    Hopefully a Soviet weapons set will follow in due course.

    1/30th British Comet Tank

    Yes, but despite strenuous efforts the frontline kept on moving forwards too fast for it to see combat and therefore had to wait for Korea. A Comet model would be great but its service was limited o the last weeks of the fighting in 1945 so I'd like to see a Challenger or a 17pdr armed Firefly.

    Daimler Division

    Hopefully we won't have to wait too long for the promised N-W Europe 1944-45 version of the Damlier armoured car.

    KING & COUNTRY Dispatches -- January 2016

    Nice figures - also need the SS black clad officer and the Nazi interrogation nurse. Also, what on earth was that helicopter doing in the film? Can we have that as well? The Germans did have helicopters in WWII - just not Bell 47s!

    KING & COUNTRY Dispatches -- January 2016

    I like the Vulture's Nest figures but I have a feeling that should n't they be wearing Gebirgsjaeger feldmutze? Any chance of a Alpine Castle façade(!!!) as a backdrop? With reference to my earlier comment above - just checked out some stills from the movie. Regarding the headgear, K & C are...

    KING & COUNTRY Dispatches -- January 2016

    Never thought WWI Eastern Front would make it into the Toy Soldier World. So - well done K & C - very appropriate as 2016 is the 100th anniversary of the Brusilov offensive - the most decisive victory the Russian Army gained during WWI. Not wishing to be greedy I hope that combat poses will...
