    KING & COUNTRY Dispatches -- March 2018

    Nice to see additions to the "Life of Jesus". Also impressed by the Arab opposition for the Six-Day War Israelis - especially the RPG team. Frightening to be reminded that "The Battle of Britain" is celebrating its 50th Anniversary! A great film.

    I'm afraid that I hope a "Life of Brian" range does not see the light of day!

    Fallschirmjäger

    Did n't realise the HB Panthers went so nicely with the Britains Fallschirmjaegers. Was thinking of selling my HB Panther - after seeing this I think I'll hang on to it!

    Time For New Releases

    Three years ago I started collecting the (then) new WWII range. I'm very impressed with the US and German releases so far but everything seems to have come to a halt. Hopefully over the next few months Britains will start clearing the logjam. Hope this delay is n't part of a deeper malaise with...

    Time For New Releases

    Britains have announced that they do not intend to produce any more catalogue supplements. They will be replaced with more regular announcements (e.g. Facebook) shortly before figures are released, as the long period of time between a figure's appearance in the catalogue and its actual release...

    Great News John Fords U.S. Cavalry

    Hope the range will be expanded in due course. Would love to see a figure (mounted or standing) of Captain Nathan Brittles, as portrayed by John Wayne in "She Wore a Yellow Ribbon".

    BB008 German Panther Ausf G Pre-Order

    The FL Panther look superb. However may I suggest that you delete the divisional insignia on the glacis plate. First, most Panthers did not carry such insignia and second, it would allow collectors to use the model to represent other Heer and Waffen-SS units that saw action during "the "Bulge."

    Winter 2017 Standard

    Mine arrived yesterday. This issue announces that the Winter Catalogue supplement will be the last catalogue supplement Britains will produce. They intend to replace it with more regular announcements shortly before figures are released, as the long period of time between a figure's appearance...

    “Poland Forever!”

    The unpainted cavalry figures at the London show were impressive! Painted they look superb! However, hope the infantry will be wearing the WZ 31 rather than the Adrian helmet.

    I don't know if any members of this forum will be attending this event this evening in London, but if any are it would be a great service to those who cannot attend for them to post their thoughts, comments, photos etc in due course. To those attending - enjoy the meal, have a great time!

    What are you expecting this Week?

    Tomorrow's (if there isn't a Chinese holdiday in the way) releases will be the last ones before Christmas. I know December is yet to come but many releases that month may not make it before Christmas - so it will be quite interesting to see what will be available.

    Captured Guns

    I think the phrase "captured from Germany" refers not to the actual guns but to the trade in toy soldiers in general - implying (correctly) that British firms, in particular Britains, had surpassed the German firms making toy soldiers which had a virtual monopoly on the market until Britains...
