Brad,

It's just been released in the UK (number 2 in the collection). I've got a couple (intending to minor modify one of them). They're a lot of metal for your money. I'll get a photo up later on if it would be of help.

Simon,

I've seen a couple of ebay and I would like to get it, as a complement to the K & C Cavalry series, provided the sculpting is pretty good. So, if you could post a good picture, that would be very helpful. Thanks.

We should have pictures of the two new series up on the del Prado USA website early next week. www.delpradousa.com

Apologies for the picture quality (due to camera and photographer in equal measures), but the German Cavalryman - Russia 1941:
