I wonder what we'll see?

Those Roman sets? They are lovely!

Maybe some more Dday figures?

Market Garden welcome as it is the anniversary, but unlikely!

Scott
 
I hope all those Roman sets and that one of the barbarian who will slaughter a Roman in the previous picture.
Maybe some Japanese for the Pacific front...
 
I would like to see Brits for D Day and Europe, some new WW2 Germans with a 'Grey' vehicle. Battle of the Bulge as ever, but think is to early, new Medieval Warriors will be welcome, am also hoping for a bit less 'American focused' released, as I think over the last few months there has been a focus on American themed sets, with a lot of Pacific and Vietnam sets, with a few US Cav as well.
 
Hoping for Jap POW's !
Doubt we'll get Pacific Marines as several this month, which I have on pre order.

VC or NVA ? could be, since we've had a few Vietnam Marines and now Aussies on patrol have been released and on their way to me.
Hopefully similar USMC patrol figures will appear.
So will the enemy be showing up soon too !
Maybe we'll have a big surprise and the ARVN will show up maybe even a Commando armoured car !

K&C has produced a windfall of incredible USMC figures … which, like you I have on order. If no new USMC appear I won't be that disappointed .. {sm4}

The JN Naval figures have been sparse the last six month, so I hope we see a return to the naval side of WWII Pacific. Still looking for Carrier deck furniture and equipment.
I can think of dozens that would be very welcomed. At this point only Admiral Yamamoto is available for officers …. and that looks odd ...:tongue:

Last JN Army was one figure (JN050) so maybe additional surprises there ….???
As mentioned Japanese prisoners (… or really causalities, which would be the more normal for Island fighting) might be in the offering with the previews a while ago.
Fingers crossed.

The last USN figure was USN024 --- CICPAC ---- and that was a while ago. Really need more help in this area.
(Pilots, Officers, crew, TBM .:rolleyes2: .. and more would be nice.)

I don't want much, do I ….^&grin

Another Israeli or Arab vehicle.....
An M113 APC for Vietnam......

Well, I know for sure there is already an M113 'in the works'...That will be very useful for Australian, American and Israeli troops PLUS another major vehicle for American, British, Aussie and Israeli forces...But that will all be a bit later than September...So, watch this space!
All the best,
Andy.
 
As it's almost September, how about some British para's in Market Garden ? And some opposition with Graebner in his Humber scout car ? :smile2:
 
The Great War please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Over due. An Aussie doctor, some A.I.F staff officers, some Kiwis even...……...

Yes and Koreans were bottom of the pile in the Japanese forces and treated allied POW's appallingly and no doubt the same with forced local civilian labour since many more of these local civilians died during construction of their railways than did POW's

Hi Randy

I'm reading a book at the moment : On Point - A Rifleman's Year in the Boonies: Vietnam 1967-1968
by Roger S. Hayes.

A very good read it is too telling of his Army service from Basic training to Vietnam in 25th Div.
Where he was in a Mechanised Bn using M113's and how one day the plan was that an ARVN Airborne Battalion was to be dropped in front of them and push VC forces to them. Apparently the ARVN guys after doing their parachute drop were picked up in trucks and taken back to their base, leaving them to do the whole job !

Hi Larry

Not much, no !{sm4} Andy has kept up a pretty plentiful supply of figures coming to us though obviously as he himself and others have mentioned that he can't please everyone every month and when he doesn't, it tends to be a catch up month for me anyhow !
Yes some Japanese casualties would be good as would another one of those Tiny Jap tanks.
Fortunately for my savings account I don't also collect Japanese Carrier figures or aircraft !

That would be cool mate! I'd be happy for any MG releases and would add them straight away!
