...............… I think more Japanese as well as British, Australian, Gurkha, Indian, Malay and Singapore Volunteers (as well as British, Canadian and Chinese Soldiers for the Battle of Hong Kong) may have more priority… So watch this space, it’s going to be interesting.

Just outstanding news..................nice to be creative and think outside the traditional Pacific campaign Marines vs Japanese; British, Australians, Gurkha's, Indians, etc, etc, sounds great to me, the dioramas will be interesting for sure..............Imphal, Kokoda, etc, etc, can't wait...............

Found another scene for this 2 ponder used in Malaya defense :salute::

"Australian anti-tank gunners overlooking the Johor Causeway between Singapore & Malaya. The men are manning a 2 Pounder anti-tank gun. "

I don't collect items from the era/campaign but I know from going to shows etc. that collectors have been clamoring for this to be covered for quite some time now. Great job by King & Country in doing this series.
