I received this in an email from Sierra and some it may be duplicative but there's some news about the boxes and tank transporters that I didn't notice before.

New King and Country Boxes

All the new releases are being delivered in gorgeous themed boxes, with reprints of photos and art work specific to the time period. This makes the boxes highly collectable later on. So it is worth while looking after them.

Special limited Editions

Each quarter they are planning to release one or two strictly limited edition pieces. Each will have a unique box and numbered certificate. Last quarter they released the WWII German Stug and Napoleonic 4th regiment of Dragoons. All of which sold out very quickly. So please watch out for these very unique pieces.

Future King and Country Releases

This is ideal for use with Napoleonic, Civil War, WWII dioramas, plus many more. We are expecting to see these over the next couple of months.

a Battle of the Bulge Santa? That's semi intersting!
It's actually what those "paint it yourself" Battle of the Bulge sets will look like when I try to do some Red Army in winter camouflage. K&C are just taking the precaution of mentioning it in case some end up on eBay ...
 
Jazzeum,do you think you could confirm something for me.You say above that there will be a further 6-7 Bulge GI's,is that actual figures or sets of G.I's?.
