This is another terrific diorama we brought to the show.

Parade in North Africa with Churchill!

WOW wonder where the palm trees come from. Would be nice to have some more displays or diorama stuff from K&C.

ANdy that is great. I heard a rumor that you will add on some other commonwealth troops for the parade, Springboks, Kiwis, Poles etc
ANy hints?
 
Superb dio,very nice indeed.Are these Egyptian items still available?

I just thought I'd enlarge these pictures but much detail is lost in the process. I'll try to take some better pictures at the West Coaster if possible.

This a cool dio with possibilities for Sicily too imus Churchill.

My favourite pieces generally are Commonwealth troops however I haven't collected the Eighth Army due to space, priorities, and money. After seeing this diorama I am sorely tempted to start! What a great display and the pieces look great in it. It has a wonderful feel to it. In my opinion the terrain and buildings really make the figures stand out. Terrific!
 
Maybe a stupid question:the 8th Army soldiers now in commerce are Black Watch?

The Obelisk is a new release and can be found - the palms .. not sure who makes those and the other ruin is a custom piece made by Gordon.

The Egypt Diorama stuff has certainly flown away and for some high prices - so high it paid for some French Old Guard Reinforcements for my collection :D

The layout and execution of the diorama was superb! Fascinating new figure sets used very effectively. This display has a big "WOW" factor for me.

Thanks Ron:)

It's nice to see some Allied "parade" figures for this range. The Staff car with Churchill looks like a great piece. Any chance of a few individual civilian figures to line the parade route?
