Can we get a heads up of upcoming items for next year future releases (1 Viewer)

[tryfon]

Hi Andy

Any chance of some information and pics of up coming items for 2021, something to inspire us all

 

[villagehorse]

Knowing there are 11 sets for ‘Aussies in Vietnam’ is plenty for me to think about. Also Andy is still committed to Ancient Egypt, Romans and Australia Light Horse. That Scotty band looks interesting as well. All in all, that will keep my finances in check{sm4}. These days Manufactures are reluctant to signal much in advance due to the possibility that another will beat them to the punch, so for me I am not expecting to see anything unless it’s close to release. Never say never. Robin.

As you say Robin there's a lot of Vietnam items to come, though I don't know if I can remember them all, but Andy has mentioned or we've had Andy showing pics on here. No idea in which order they will be getting released either.
Let's see for the Aussies there's:

Land Rover with canopy
Land Rover without Canopy
Two Aussie MP figures
Aussie Passengers for Land Rovers
Add on Crew for Aussie 105mm Howitzer
Aussie Mortar and Crew
Mine Sweeping team
FSB Bunker

Vietnamese:

Village Elder
Miss Saigon
Miss FMJ
Boy on Water Buffalo
Pair of Water Buffalo
Vietnamese MP

And US.

Gun Truck
USMC Mortar and crew
Joker
Rafterman
Mystery figure in Blue hat !

You'll have to remind me of what I've missed !

Israeli Centurion and an Egyptian/Syrian tank.......maybe the M113 in IDF markings as well?
Would also like to see some more Egyptian structures/backdrops and another chariot.

Another Egyptian chariot ? Really ???

Yes, but one that is sturdy and ships well! I'm sure K&C has the talent and means to
build an affordable chariot that can ship in good condition. Maybe in several pieces
e.g. Horses, platform and wheels.......why not try it would be a great seller.

 

[Combat]

I would like to see KC do a Sophie Scholl figure. Maybe as a collector's club addition.

 

[JPB]

I would like to see :

- Bangalore torpedo for D-day beaches

- Fat Goering in a long coat to complete the earlier set released by K&C


- Trojan horse with soldiers coming out.

- Some ladders in resin for the crusades, because my metal ones keep bending over time

- Some D-day Point d'Hoc rangers with drags to clime does cliffs

All for now

Great idea,

Cleo could stage a Ben-Hur type chariot race to keep her Roman 'visitors' entertained.

We can now add to Vietnam 3 VC prisoners and a civilian carrying a basket. Six months worth of releases here, some of which I am going to want multiples. Yikes. Robin.

 

[W.D.E.]

I'd like a revisit to the American Revolution like he's done with the ACW. I missed out on collecting them on the first go round.

Yes, I think there are one or two I'll want at least a second of !

I wonder if Andy and K&C will start adding a few ARVN troops or ROK's into the mix also and start adding some non Flak Jacket wearing US troops. K&C could do a few sets of various divisions and Brigades patches on their arms such as the 1st, 25th, 101st, 173rd and of course the Air Cav and I'm sure there's lots more collectors would like to see as limited editions !

I would love to see some WW1 Turkish cavalry to oppose the Light Horse, like those seen in the ambush scene of the Light Horseman. I would also love some German and Austrian troops.there were quite a few regiments of Austrians involved in th3 Middle East as well as many German specialist troops. Lastly, on the same theme, an ambulance wagon and supply wagon. At the King and Country dinner years ago a mate of mine suggested the ambulance wagon, as seen after the opening battle scene of Th3 Light Horsemen, to Andy and he loved the idea.

Oh, I am being greedy now. But I would love some more fighting Persians and I would love some fighting Ancient Egyptians. I have collected all the Egyptians, besides an archer pose of the pharaoh all the Egyptians are passive poses.

I would also like to see some Ancient Egyptians in fighting poses with some adversaries. Would need too many chariots, however and I doubt this series will move in that direction.

Correct Andy has always seen this series as a peaceful one, best you see is the slave master with the whip. The beautiful original Chariot being the centre piece of the series was a real headache for Andy, being quite fragile and one not likely to be repeated. Robin.
