Here come Dispatches! (1 Viewer)

[Rob]

Guys, with less than a week to go, Dispatches are already shaping up to be interesting. With the new Italian Tank being the next 250 release, does anyone expect figures with one or more of these?. And with Gordons excellent Piece of Cake dio maybe that RAF Tent will herald some releases for that range?. So with some little tasters leaking out, what are you hoping for.

I think we may see something for the USAAF range.

Did any of the other 250 releases come with additional figures? Or did the 250's supplement existing figures?

Was wondering when you were going to get around to this sir!! Too distracted discussing British Generals and the English Channel ^&grin^&grin

no doubt in my mind-

SF08- M1A2 Bradley- Baghdad Iraq 2004

also- there were some gaps in the AE releases so perhaps this month we will see some new ones, otherwise, I am expecting it, due to the short month, to be a tad quiet.

i think its gonna be the 3 250 releases, panzerfaust volkstrums, diorama accessories, napoleonics, and RAF/USAAF. :smile2:

I wondered if Afrika and FOB would get a visit and, at least the desert is getting visited those italian tanks look very nice clever to do them in the 250 series. Whats needed in that campaign is a AK 88mm flak gun. The dio's so far from Gordon have been predominantly early war so FOB may get some attention perhaps a staff car or similar early brit armour or a new Char B??.

AK 88 would be grand.

Rather than another Char B, I would look for a Suoma. It would be a great dispatches to get both an Italian tank and a Suoma. All I would need to make a great year would be a Sturmtiger.

Would be very nice and most welcome, but we've just recently had an artillery piece so it would be quite soon after wouldn't it.

I really hope that Tent is up coming, I'm thinking of a two or three next to my Nissen Hut^&cool

I would imagine with land taken from the French owners and not enough accomodation they may well have, would certainly look good with Luftwaffe Pilots too wouldn't it.

That's got a nice ring too it. ^&grin

 

[Mitch]

Good choices, I am sure a sturmtiger will be done this year!!!

Challenger II and a Warrior.

More in hope than expectation.

Has K&C said they will address Modern stuff or, is that an area of no interest???

SF09 and SF10. Yep, that'd do. :wink2:

 

[Guy]

Diorama accessories would be more than welcome. One never has enough of these.
( extra weapons ,jerry cans, etc .....)

Definately go with the extra weapons. I'm amazed none of the manufacturers have come up with 1/30 scale weapons sets. After all, the weapons are already sculpted for the figures, so it would be an easy process.

Hey Mitch-

we modern collectors were given a tanalizing look at what could have been in years past only to have that eevil SOB ACN yank the carpet out from under us.^&grin Now, we just go with the flow and remember days of yesteryear, always hoping to see that illusive SF08 pop back into the catalog. ^&grin So far as I know, the line is as dead as a Predator airstrike on a taliban stronghold.
