Advice on the following sets please! (1 Viewer)

I'm thinking about buying these 3 sets Ws087 "Halt", Ws088 "Road Block" and Ws089 "On Patrol". Any input about these sets would be greatly appreciated.

Sahara,

K&C does a great job with the motorcycle w/sidecar. You must get one! WS87, WS89 and WS88 go great together, but are similiar, so you might try just one first.

You won’t be disappointed. WS087 was the 2nd K&C set I bought 3 years ago. I have WS088 as well. They are all metal – very heavy.

PS: Don't overlook the AK version and FOB French bike. Not sure what French bike had a horizontal piston engine, but interesting and will be hard to come by later ....

I like the Afrika Korps version best closely followed by the two Panzer Lehr Tri-camo/Normandy bikes (WS088 & WS089). I know there are a number of collectors that prefer the Classic Gray German Vehicles (WS087) and Figures but imo they appear bland looking in a display.

That French bike is really nice. K&C does make some pretty nice bikes. I like the total retro look though.

All three are unique and very well done. I highly recommend all of them.

Agreed, you can't go wrong with any or all of them.

I think I'm gonna go ahead and get them all if I can find them at a reasonable price. My intentions are to create a small diorama of a German check point. I only wish all the vehicles were gray. Thanks for everyones feedback. Its good to hear all good and nothing bad when considering a piece.

Update on the French motorcycle. I read the name off of the tank and it is a Gnome & Rhone... horizontal piston engine.

Here is a 1939 model photo that I found.... and a link http://home.kpn.nl/bertknst/motors.html
