Interesting stuff coming through Panzer IV

My hunch says white washed PIV + PV before year end. We got the Pz38t on the way, a grey Hanomag a near certainty. Does that mean yet more jackboots? A second release winter Russians? A grey PIV? We haven't even hit the Brits or Americans yet, or Africa. Shaping up to be a busy year

Great looking WWII releases including the Panzer IV. I like the Russians as well and the German tank commanders too. {bravo}}

All in all a quiet dispatch for me as the releases are from lines I don't collect. All those ALH horses are an interesting development, there are a lot of lines that you could use extra horses (ex. Napoleonics). The Soviets look nice, I like the Valentine tank and the Soviet female fighters are a unique idea. The highlight for me is FINALLY the release of a late war Pz.IV. Unfortunately I have mixed feelings about it. It certainly is an excellent piece and very high on my "want" list however I wish it had side skirts with battle damage/missing much like WS069 did. I understand that they are delicate and may cause a production issue but I still was hoping for that nontheless. The camo is fine but K&C has released a lot in this style and I was hoping for something in an ambush pattern as its been a long time since we've seen an AFV like that. Those nitpicks don't detract from an otherwise great piece it simply prevents it from being a "must have" for me. I guess as your collection grows one becomes more and more selective about what they require.
As for the retirements all those OMG must surely be paving the way for the next "drop".

This dispatch had exactly what I was hoping for.....Russians! And what a fine assortment of Russians. Kudos to K & C for producing the two outstanding female warriors.
I was hoping for some tank riders and here they are! I will be picking up all of these new Russian figures as soon as possible. Wonderful work K & C!
The Panzer IV H looks fantastic as well. I will be picking one of those up as well along w/ at least one of the tank commander sets.
I'm sure the Australian Light Horse collectors will be thrilled with the announcement of two releases per year. It sure is an explosive range, full of spirit & motion.
What an exciting dispatch. I can't wait to get my hands on the new Russian figures, especially those great coated figures.

Tom ,

We were just all talking about needing german tank commander figures...What a pleasant surprise from Andy...I would also welcome Commonwealth tank commander figures as well...
The Panzer IV also looks awesome as does the Russian Valentine & new Russian releases...

Joe

Yeah Joe, that Panzer IV is so good that i might get a second and that's where the half figure set will come in handy. I have a couple of multiple Cromwell and Sherman tanks as well so a commonwealth half figure set will be most welcome.

The Russians look good as well as the Russian Valentine but unfortunatley I cannot afford to collect that series.

What a great lot of Russian figures and Valentine tank . K&C have steeped up and are giving collectors what they are asking for. Good work K&C. Chris.
