    Comprehensive sneak peek

    Great to find so many knowledgeable minds on the forum re: the Stug! Thanks for the info! Maybe I should play it safe and ask for armoured side panels instead..! (And maybe a summer version with a machine gunner in the side hatch..?!)

    Comprehensive sneak peek

    Like the look of some of the BOB Germans on the back page! Looking forward to the summer version of the Sd Kfz 234/1! Summer version of Stug III as well, or good as is? And yes where is the MG mount?!! (I'm thinking of the Band of Brothers "Carentan" episode) Mentioned before, but would still...

    Typhoon Tank buster, sign here!

    I had the really good fortune to see this formidable aircraft up close and "in the flesh" today, and it is quite a beast! It has quite a weight in polystone which you most definitely will feel, though as was pointed out a number of parts, eg the rockets and the landing gear are in zinc which...

    King&Country New Collectors Quarterly

    Just came out, interesting as ever. The Hawker Typhoon really has me looking into dipping a toe into the polystone Warbird pool..! And Andy, stop taunting me with pictures of the 88mm Flak gun!!! Please bring out an updated version, Normandy three colour scheme (I would even settle for a BoB...

    New unnamed Germans in Collector??

    Hello, just browsing thought the latest issue of Collector and spotted a couple of figures that caught my eye in the centre page diorama. Apart from the "Fall of Berlin" MG team (I just missed the original sets when I started collecting K&C), I noticed what seems to be an SS Panzergrenadier (?)...

    Hello Andy. What are the chances of?

    Yes a "classic" Normandy 88mm (transportable and deployable into firing position) with crew and Heavy Mover half track would definitely get my vote. Missed this set the first time around!

    Your top 10 items which you personally would like to see in the next 12 months!

    Keeping my list short: 1. German 88mm (yes I know we have the Flak41 coming, but I missed out on the "classic" 88mm, and the Normandy version to boot! (I don't care if it's fiddly to make Andy!:)) 2. Normandy crew for the above 3. Plus Prime Mover half track for 1. please! 4. Normandy long...

    Snow Tiger works for me

    Picked mine up last week, looking good.. Almost persuaded myself to get the Panther as I prefer the Normandy items, but those pesky words "Tiger" and "Strictly Limited" were words I could not ignore!

    I think you could see the eyes.. Plane is a nice shade of olive drab/green

    Me262

    I think I spied one lurking on the K&C 2011 calendar with a ladder supporting it at the back. Looked very nice!

    My Spitfire just landed!

    Yes, given one option only, gear down for dios. What I was trying to suggest however was the option of gear up or gear down, but has been explained to me that that would be rather complex an undertaking and I daresay increase the overall cost..

    My Spitfire just landed!

    Saw this model up close, really very nice, comes up ahead of the FW. Would love to get one, but too heavy for me to carry and "swoosh" around the room when nobody's watching.. :D Mentioned before Andy, retractable undercarriage and stand to show off "in flight" (another great way to show it...

    New K&C Collector

    Welcome to the forum! The original German paratroopers K&C came out with a year or two ago and recently discontinued are very nice! Advice: pick your favourite era/line carefully and (try to..!) stick to it, otherwise collector's madness will ensue..! :)

    Well who likes the new Panther.

    This Panther looks very nice though I'm hesitating as some of my display shelf real estate just got swallowed up by the Tiger I and Firefly :). Will probably get it in the course of time, then next on the list would be (yes Normandy!) Stug with top machine gunner, Panzer IV (both with side...

    Tanks Tanks and more Tanks.

    Yes I remember just wanting to collect the figures as the vehicles were not in my budget, even recollect Andy telling me how this vehicle or that could add to a scene and then go on building up from there.. Well eventually got the SAS recce jeep and was well impressed by the weight (from the...

    Band of Brothers.

    Would love to see new "in action" reissues of these figures as they would have looked after having just been dropped on D-Day

    April Dispatches Are Up

    Looking forward to the Firefly and the Tiger I and this thread has made me notice the price difference between the both of them. Would be interesting to know how this is. Perhaps because there are many like me who have been waiting over two years for a K&C Tiger?? Anyway end of the day it's my...

    Andy Neilson and Many Other Wonderful Things

    Andy, Gordon and all the K&C peeps are very nice and approachable folks, always have the time for a quick chinwag... (Makes it that much easier for me to part with my hard earned cash...:)

    West Coaster Show- King and Country

    Great, finally get to see a Firefly, a Tiger (missed the last one that came out two years ago, been waiting that long..!), plus the MG Jeep and requested mortar team! Now for an MG Vickers machine gun set and a Normandy 88mm anti-tank set (yes I missed that one as well and I'm told will be some...
