A very much anticipated piece that will look great with your marching column of legionnaires. Please note studio photos to follow next week as our photographer forgot to take photos of this subject!

In early 2015 we should see the start or our Allied jungle patrol figures as well as plenty of other exciting figures to fill out this range.
FJ010B Major Heinz Adolff Winter version. Following on from our very successful version released earlier we now have released a winter version. I have to say this is some of the best painting I have seen on one of our FJ figures. More FJ's are due to follow in early 2015. We have 75 sets available priced at $40/£29.50 per figure.
FJ010C Desert Version, same as above but in tropical dress and suitable for Italy or North Africa. Once again 75 sets available and priced at $40/£29.50 each figure.
Club 17 A British WW1 Sgt Major dressed in Sheepskin jacket as winter draws in, puts a brave face on and his hands in his pockets!
For those of you interested, there will be more WW1 figures in sheepskins to follow in 2015.
Free to all Club members who spend $150/£100 on our products via our online store.
In 2015 the Club member figures will change slightly in that we will concentrate on personality figures, similar to how we started back in 2013.
Thats all for now folks, please note our website will not show the new releases for a couple of days as our web guy is away until Wednesday. Until then and if you dont want to wait please email me at your earliest convenience and I will reserve your items for you.
