NOT AT ALL... this was an Useless and unprofitable operation that just increase Allies casualties for nothing, so no need for more.

When you say 'no more' what about people who collect it????.Thing is Rod,although the operation did not succeed in its objectives and cost many many casualties, it holds enormous interest for collectors as it is a wonderful display of fine soldiering and bravery in holding out against the odds.Its this that appeals and makes K&C's range very popular.So i'm sure we will be seeing much more from Arnhem in the future

A figure of my old Dad (bless his cottons) doggie paddling across the river with a German sniper's pressie in his calf would be a nice touch. So, power to to Mr K&C's elbow to keep knocking figures and vehicles out in this range. Least we forget .............!

We Anglo Saxons love our defeats and stuff ups.
Islandwana, Light Brigade, Retreat to Corunna, Arnhem
It is just an odd characteristic of the Anglo Saxons.

Rob, with all my respects, I don't care at all...What about those who collect Fall of Berlin 1945, Romans, the Barbarians, and others ranges that have been wiped out.... IMO we had enough and is time to move on.

But it is just my opinion....

.........and Dunkirk, Monongahela, Tobruk, Crete or any where else that comes to mind where us 'Anglo-Saxons' end up having a part to play in history.

Any more glorious reversrses we can think of...??

Well in future please don't post your opinions somewhere if they are going to be cold and negative toward something a forum member brings up solely for the purpose of enjoyment!

Well said Scott i dont see the point on commenting negatively about something i have no interest in!!! Thats why i wouldn't post about none WW2 king & country sets as i dont collect them & dont feel the need to to upset people that do!!!

Scott,don't worry about it mate,producers will make Arnhem as they know it will sell well,thems the facts i'm afraid.

I wonder what will be coming next for Arnhem.I'm hoping for another Jeep,Mortar team,dead and wounded etc.And in a scene from Bridge too Far how about a guy carrying one of those canisters on his shoulder.There is also a very famous pic of some Brit Para prisoners being marched away,whilst one of them gives the traditional British two finger salute.That would make for a great set

That came from Agincourt mate.
The French promised to cut off the English archers' two bow fingers.
After ward s they all gave teh two fingered salute to show they still had their two fingers.
