I too would like to see a return to the earlier German AFV. Armoured cars, Half tracks, Etc.This is a good example.

Agreed...and hopefully, easier on the wallet, too (make them affordable)!

I was going to post a pic of a whitewashed T34 with an advancing column last night, but the more I think about it, very few people are going to invest in an advancing Russian column at $42 per head. The sad reality is K&C may become better known as F&R, Fuehrer und Reich.

I would love a T-34 with these kind of tank riders...

Definitely like the assault look. The top T34 looks like a hybrid. The turret of a /85, the hatch of a /76, and an inbetween length gun

What I mean is that with rising prices, the number of collectors willing to step out of the comfort zone (German) will shrink, thus in response the balance of future releases will tilt even further towards the Germanic. Perhaps just my pessimism being broadcast aloud. But if Russians did poorly last time at <30/fig or whatever it was, can't see it doing better at >40/fig this time around

Theirs alot of New Collectors, such as I. Russians will sell, and we are WAITING!!!!!!%^V

I think there is some truth to that, and I expect K&C to approach it caustiously, but.... I think there will be quite a bit of demand for the first issues of new Russians. There has been quite a bit of time since the last Russians, meaning there are many WWII collectors without any Russians in their collections. Plus, collectors see how well the last Russians seem to do on Ebay. It is likely that we won't see years and years of Russians released into the market, which means there is a good chance prices on the secondary market will be pretty good on the upcoming figures, especially if the initial retail prices are kept at a reasonable point. The other option K&C might try is to release some of the vehicles as SLs; I imagine a winter T-34 would be one such vehicle that would be quite popular as an SL. I have the last T-34, but I know if a winter version comes out I will have to have it. The previous T-34 is still one of the favorite vehicles in my collection.

I am hoping for winter Russians as they would be a great contrast to the earlier Berlin series.

I think we are really in the east in all but name of range.

I was surprised to read last night that von Pannwitz's Cossacks were in the Stalingrad campaign. After 6th army got encircled, his Cossacks were clearing the area which would become the jump off point for Manstein's relief column. 503 & 2.502 Tiger battalions & SS-Vik were there too.

"A Woman in Berlin" is on Netflix Streaming now. It's a great reference for uniforms & captures the organized mob look of the Red Army very well.
