“Missing DISPATCHES!” (Part One) (1 Viewer)

[King & Country]

Hi Guys,
Sincere apologies when I wrote up this week’s “DISPATCHES” I missed out a couple of important little additions… Without further ado here they are…

1. APPEARING ALSO IN APRIL…
Here are the two new exclusive K&C Collectors’ Club Figures…

CF031 “Captain Eddie Rickenbacker”
The famed commander of the 94th Aero Squadron when he was based at Toul, France in September 1918. Capt. Rickenbacker wears a British Royal Flying Corps service cap, Military Aviators wings and another British uniform item… the “Sam Browne” belt.


CF032 “Kitchener of Khartoum”
Born in 1850, Herbert Kitchener had one of the most distinguished military careers in Queen Victoria’s army. He commanded in the Sudan, Egypt and South Africa. By 1914 he was Secretary of State for War. He died in 1916 when HMS Hampshirestruck a mine en route to Russia. Here he is pictured in the typical late Victorian tropical uniform he would have worn in the Sudan or South Africa.


Best wishes and happy collecting,
Andy C.

Great stuff... that's it, I have to rejoin the Collectors Club. Question is, if I join now will I be able to get one of these as my membership figure or should I wait until they're available? Andy?

...And if you're still on, what's the situation with the Chinese Pirate Junk, did the prototype your were waiting on late last year prove to be feasible?

cheers

I love the Kitchner, and he will soon join in my collection. As to a statement earlier, if you make a Junk, I WILL get the USN launch and some crew as well as the Junk.

Ron,
Since the USA waited a bit to join in WWI I think it only fair the other countries planes get done first{sm4}.

As to American WW1 planes, there were never any US made fighters in action. The USAS flew French made fighter aircraft, first the Nieuport 28's and then the more famous Spad. Either of these choices would be a most welcome addition. Considering the possibilities for both French and US markings, the Spad would be the obvious choice to make. The USAS did most of it's fighter work in the Spad and the Spad is Capt. Rickenbacker's most famous aircraft. An opportunity for KC.^&grin -- Al
