Kriegsmarine (1 Viewer)

Hi all-

Do you think K&C will ever revisit the Kriegsmarine? Would love to see some new figures in action poses. A couple figures with a spotlight; action at the docks (figures defending the port), perhaps a road block. This was one theme that was pretty much limited to 13 figures (not counting the parade sets).

I hope so. I would love to see fighting Kriegsmarine fending off my Commandos.

Exactly what I was thinking. Wehrmacht is nice but for a commando port scene, got to have some Kriegsmarine.

KC made very nice krigsmarine figures, very detailed..The problem is that they will never make an U- Boot neither a fighting boat for obvious reasons, that' s why this range can' t have the basics to **lly exist.

I don't know about that. Figarti produced a Schnellboot (E-boat) as part of their "Stun & Awe" collection. While a $1500 U-Boat may not be offered by K&C, there's always potential for smaller naval vessels, dock/port sets, perhaps a life boat or raft. I'm optimistic that K&C's creative designers can revisit the theme and offer some nice pieces. The theme doesn't necessarily have to have a **ll-scale U-Boat.

Yes, the Figarti E Boat is superb but a tad expensive for me. I have great memories of making and painting the Airfix one. Perhaps a small converted Greek fishing boat as per 'Guns Of Navarone'?
