The center piece of th eWB room was the Nile River Gun Boat

This year WB had a very nice display of their Rev War range . . .

 

[mestell]

Of course the Zulu War range was well represented and displayed . . . .

 

[mestell]

The WB Napoleonics were impressive, especially they mounted figures and the new French Fulsilers . . . .

. .. . and the Delhi Durbar . . .

The WWI display was very nice . . . .

 

[mestell]

Of course my favorite display area was the American Civil War. The new 114th PA Zouaves and the new Union and Confederate gun crews were a big hit for me . . .

Hi Mike,

Thanks for all the close up photos of what Britains had displayed! It was great to flick through them all. Did you pick up one of the new catalogues? If so any chance you could take a few pictures of the pages for us guys here who couldn't go? Would love to see the new glossies coming out?

Thanks Craig

Thanks Mike you deliver the WB show photos as asked for. I noticed they were no new goodies featuring any Zulu War figures or sets but there's no doubt your pleased with what's headed your way with what wB has i store for those who are Civil War Collectors. By the way very nicely done in featuring what you took home from the show.......Joe

Thanks for the photos Mike!

The 1st Royal Dragoons and French 3rd Lancers are great! Thanks WB for doing them. I like how the horses' reins are now non-metal, looks very authentic.

Also neat to hear that the Art of War series continues.

Britains always seem to produce figures with a lot of dynamism that makes for more interesting dioramas. All of those dioramas pictured show this off very well indeed!

My focus with Britains is the Zulu Rorke's Drift range and ACW but, their American Revolution, War along the Nile and WW1 ranges are very well done!

Thanks for these pictures, Mike!

The WB Napoleonics were impressive, especially they mounted figures and the new French Fulsilers . . . .

Thanks for taking some pictures of the WB Napoleonics, it's very much appreciated. They seem to have been a bit neglected elsewhere.
Those new French infantry look great and a must have.
I agree the cavalry set-up looks fantastic.
The zulu and Nile series just get better and better and more and more tempting. I have already started buying into the Zulu range and it looks like the Nile series will follow.
What a great show it must have been.
Thanks
Paul
