Do you have the whole Arnhem 44 series now?
I'm impressed with your enthusiasm for Arnhem in particular. What was it about that particular battle that grabbed your attention?
I know for me it was seeing A Bridge Too Far and I suspect quite a lot of other folks too.

I never got around to collecting any Arnhem 44 but i'm pleased to have all the Market Garden sets so far. It's the only series I've got every piece of.

I started collecting K&C in the late 90`s and Arnhem was the theme I started with. Than I acquired the Arnhem Bridge and several of the 3-dimensional bldg`s.I remember watching "A Bridge To Far" than I called Bill Hurlbutt,who was the local Chicago K&C dealer at the time ,and asked him how much Arnhem do You have in stock? Brother was I hooked!

There is no ammo supply jeep. An09 consists of a supply trailer carrings 14
jerrycans, ammo boxes, mortar bombs, and a backpack. It comes with two figures. The popular photo below shows it with AN10 The Attack Jeep, which also comes with two figures.

Shortly I will post photos of the AN06 Reece Jeep, AN09 Supply Trailer (I am short one figure for that set. And SAS01 which is very similar to the AN10 Attack jeep both have twin Vickers 303's SAS01 is set up for Desert Fighting.
