These look superb and well worth the wait - all we need is a 1/30 Pegasus Bridge!! Congratulations on getting the Bren gunner position correct (an improvement on the 8th Army figure).
Although I am very sad that K & C UK have ceased business it is just remembering that K & C in Hong Kong is still going strong. Now, if Andy shut up shop that would be an event of practically apocalypse proportions!
Like everyone else I have no idea what prompted K&C UK's decision. Declining...
