Nice picture, not really my range [have to draw a line somewhere], would like to see some Brit D-Day paras but can see why not as Andy is concentrating on Market Garden, not moaning so please do not turn this into a 'moanfest', lets be positive.
Question - What do TFers think the new vehicle will be?

I know there was lots of conjecture over the "P" range but there is something about them that makes them stand out.
As per usual mate you make them look brilliant and I'm sure your pics have helped Andy's sales I for one am guilty purchasing something I wasn't going to until you displayed it so thank you mate for taking time and effort to post.
Always amazes me that this is a TS forum that threads like this get a few likes and comments but others about nothing to do with our hobby go on and on and on.
Thanks again mate for making my day just that bit more enjoyable.

One of the many things I love about your work Duke is that you have so much fun in producing it!
Time and time again you tell a whole story with just a small 'vignette' of a few figures, a vehicleand a simple setting...No gimmicks...no photoshop ... no tricks...
Just a little creativity and a whole lot of imagination.
As ever...Well done my friend!
Happy collecting,
Andy.
P.S. If you make 'Chicago' this year you will see all the new 'reinforcements'!

Agree Wayne, there is something that stands out in this series to make it one of the most successful for K&C. The Para's smocks are iconic for me and transform me straight to ' A bridge too Far' thankfully not too far for Andy. A medic jeep would fit in nicely, cannot think of any heavy vehicles in this action, unless we start talking German. Anything would be most appreciated, come on September Anniversary. Robin.

Thanks for that Wayne. I agree that the "P" range adds that little extra that makes them stand out. They sure do photograph beautifully.

Thanks Andy you are very kind. I do enjoy it so. Your figures and vehicles have made it a pleasure in coming up with different scenes over the years. The K&C poses and facial expressions have always impressed me. I'll see a new figure or set that I like and immediately start thinking of how to use it in a new scene or set up.
I hope to make it to Chicago again this year and am probably 50/50 at this point depending on a few things to work out. Would be great to see you again as well as many friends in the toy soldier world.
All the best,
Duke
