Check it out guys,we have a great looking D Day Bunker,Canadian infantry to complement last months Brits,and a Hitler Bomb plot set!.There is a German set to man the bunker and also ACW Cavalry.Thanks for all the D Day stuff Andy,the Bunker is going to be very useful.:)

Looks like the stowage is removable from the Cromwell.:cool:

Rob
 
Looks like we got another German Shepherd as well. :D
 
The Bunker looks fantastic,with the extra figure set we can have five men manning it,this is a must have for me.I like the look of the Bomb plot as well,i need to ponder my budget!The retirements are not too bad either,i want the two glider troop figures and the M/Bike and sidecar.

The bunker is a nice surprise, and really completes the D-Day sets. Was looking forward to the British and Canadian troops, and was not disappointed on that count either. All in all an excellent couple of months!

Absolutely agree.Andy has given us a lot of Normandy stuff in two great dispatches.Now we have troops,armour,Landing Craft and now a Bunker.As a D Day collector I couldn't ask for more!.

As I feared, no Americans.:( But some cool stuff... Bunker Defenders, Atlantic Wall, the Bomb Plot and Caen sign. I don't really have an interest in collecting British WWII stuff but I made an exception with the LRDG Chevy because I thought it was so well done. Now the Cromwell and Monty look fantastic. However, the Civil War has been my favorite series lately and yet I'm not crazy about these new cavalry. Unbelievable! I'm being tempted by a series I was trying to avoid and am disappointed with the one I was most hoping for!! This hobby keeps throwing me curveballs :confused:

Kudos to whoever did the facial sculpting on Monty and the Bomb plot figures. Very well done.
 
Well here we go again.Another great tank I have to get and maybe even Monty.Is there no end to great things coming out of K&C.Another thing to put on the wish list.Simmo.:)
 
It was a long time waiting but the bunker looks great .
just order all the d-day stuff .

On my oh my ..

my knees are getting weak looking at the new ACW cavalry. Nicely done with varying poses like the "mounting up". Hope K&C's next Napoleonic cavalry is done is same or like manner. :eek:

Meanwhile .. its going to be very tough Not to jump onto the ACW range because of these new mounted figures :(

wow and wow
really like the bunker and the figures that go with it , the indian gunner is a very nice touch. The Bunker Defenders is a must have set:cool: some very nicely posed brits too..hitler set looks pretty good as well:cool::cool:
 
A good July bunch. Love the Atlantic Wall surprise.

"It’s long been a personal wish of mine to honour the enormous and valiant role CANADA played in World War Two.

Like other parts of the Empire and Commonwealth Canada was among the first to join Britain in her fight with the Axis Forces. In fact Canadian forces first arrived in Britain in late 1939 and many Royal Canadian Air Forces pilots played a vital part in the Battle of Britain.

On D. Day Canadian Forces were allocated JUNO BEACH in the British sector and performed heroically throughout the Normandy campaign and beyond. Now, we have them fighting their way off the beach on June 6, 1944."

No problem with honouring the Canadians. The Kiwi's have had the EA Dingo and three items from the EA SAS items (Attack and the two Chevy trucks - one with Kiwi driver and the other with a Kiwi/Maori name on the front).
So what is missing from the Commonwealth ????

Need more Aussies !!!!! Not that we are biased Down Under.

PS Andy will be in Oz late July and I am pretty sure he is going to be briefed accordingly.
 
All I can say is wow! The July 20 set looks very nice. ACW, amazing. Budget busters for sure.
 
WOW!! Some nice sets. Those ACW Calvary do look good. We World War II collectors are really spoiled .:D I really like that SL set.
 
My apologies to those who find my enthusiasm for the product wearing,but i just love these last two dispatches!.We now have real depth and scope for dio's for the British and Canadians on D Day,for many years we have had lots of US and German releases and now the British and Commonwealth.

These last two dispatches has put D Day right at the top in my opinion,Bulge and North Africa have been growing in popularity in recent years but back comes D Day!:).I just love this Hobby!

Does anyone else think that as you can remove the Stowage from the Cromwell it leaves a nice space for Tank riders?:)

The Atlantic wall piece is a must have and makes the LCA look even better - along with my Canadian pieces I will have to cut down to 1 meal a day and siphon gas from the neighbour's car.
