Need to identify Unusual K&C motorcycle (1 Viewer)

[storch]

HI everyone:

I have been collecting K&C since 1999, and I think this forum is really great. The reason I'm writing is because in 2000 I went to the Maitland store in Goderich, ONTARIO and bought a set that I have been unable to identify (the box does not have a number). At the time I was just begining to collect, and my knowledge of K&C was quite limited. I bought the set because I liked it, but I did not know that there was anything unusual about it. The set in question is the German motorcycle with sidecar. The motorcycle itself is painted in the summer scheme but the two soldiers are wearing grey uniforms in matte finish. I have seen the riders in glossy fiinish grey uniforms, but never in the matte. I have asked some people (including Gideon), and they tell me that they have never seen this particular combination. Can anyone help me identify the set?

Welcome to the forum. Glad to have another New Yorker-New Jerseyer here.

If you look here at WS 006B, http://toysoldiersusa.com/cgi-local...RLD WAR II&subsubcategory=WAFFEN SS&offset=10, at Bill Sager's site, I think this describes what you have. If not, please post a photo.

Hi:

Thanks for the welcome. I had seen this picture before, and no, this is not what I have. I believe that the figures are very similar, but the motorcycle looks just like the regular summer scheme motorcycle (ws006). I'll try to get a picture of it and post it.

If you have difficulty posting a photo, just email me and I'll post it for you.

The WS06 came in the summer paint scheme and the ambush and did have some riders with the gray matte finish. I have a set of my own. Andy did paint some of the figures in a different scheme so it would not be too unusual. I would like to see the picture.
