Battle of the Ardennes - What would you like to see in this range. (2 Viewers)

[Barkmann]

The Battle of the Ardennes [Bulge] is probably my favourite range from K & C. Will be a few months, probably, before we see new releases in this range, but thought i would begin a thread on what fellow Tfrogger would like to see released in this range, i will kick off,
Sherman - Captured and used by the Germans.
A Panther disguised as a M10.
Shermans - from the relief force that fought its way into Bastogne
US Paras attacking Foy.
Some figures based on the Poteau Crossroads action and after.
A dio building
Winter civilians

The Battle of the Bulge is also my favorite range from K & C. I like all of your ideas.

I will have to Google Poteau Crossroads action and after. as I know nothing about this.

I also would like to see some German Winter Tank riders and Winter Fallshirmjagers.

Cheers, short video below,

Pics of the Poteau Crossroads [there are loads of pictures and video as there was a German propaganda unit at the scene], some scenes/pics are staged but they were staged within an or two of the action.
The Winter Fallshirmjagers riding on the back of the Tiger II would be excellent.

Great video, Thanks for posting.

and I agree, The Winter Fallshirmjagers riding on the back of the King Tiger would be AMAZING !!! Andy

I would love to see America soldiers pushing metal boats with supplies or wounded in the snow.

I did think of the boat as well, it is an impressive piece when you see it in the exhibition, could also be altered and used/sold [using different figures] for the Rhine Crossing, but might be a bit niche and not generate enought sales for the cost. I also remember seeing a German horse pulling a single narrow sledge in a muesum while there, think it was the Le Gleize musum, but not sure. That would make a good piece and could be also sold for a winter Eastern Front set. I think we often forget just how much the Germans were reliant on Horses in WW2.

Winter Fallshirmjagers riding on the back of the King Tiger - one of them is carrying a Sten Gun. Too early for the German copy.
While an M29 Weasal would be great and that could be also used for the Pacific and Korea

I made a suggestion years ago, we are still missing the "Weasel" which was used during the BoB

Cool topic, would definitely love to see some new US winter armor. Nothing specific, but some great suggestions mentioned.

Because I’m a sucker for German armor, I’d like to see a Jagdpanzer IV L/70(V). While K&C has made a couple versions of the short-barreled Jagdpanzer IV L/48 and the long barreled Panzer IV/70(A), they haven’t done a proper Jagdpanzer IV L/70(V) variant yet and that vehicle type was increasingly common by late 1944… To date, it seems that of all the manufacturers, only Figarti has made one of those and its obviously long out of production

Not just in the BoB range, I would love to see An American Half-track.. Ty..
