[King & Country]

Hi Guys,

Here’s some info that might prove useful…
Napoleonic… A new British Cavalry Regiment is already in the works to replace the “Greys”…

Bad news though… More French Cavalry (from two different Regiments) are also on the work bench!
RAF… Sadly, the wounded pilot’s aircraft took a “header” into the channel. However his replacement Spitfire is waiting for him after he gets out of the station sickbay!

Normandy…British armour has another tank on the production schedule plus plans for more in 2013. Airborne additions are already being worked on.
Panzer IV… Watch this space.

Desert Again… there are more British armour being developed as well as infantry and artillery.

Battle of the Bulge…October and November will answer some of the questions posed. Generally speaking lads, it’s sometimes easily forgotten that K&C releases more items on a regular monthly basis than most of our competitors combined.

It’s impossible however to suit everyone’s “needs” and “must-haves” on an instant basis. Production capacities and schedules cannot be turned on and off like a water tap. Believe it or not we do spend many, many hours trying to accommodate as many requests as we can while at the same time balancing the commercial viability of this vehicle or those kinds of figures.

However we always appreciate your ideas and suggestions and they will always get a fair hearing!

Best wishes and happy collecting,

Andy C.​

Thanks for the update, Joe

Hi Andy,

Splendid news on all fronts mate, quite literally!{bravo}} Spitfire, Normandy Tanks and figures, Infantry and artillery for North Africa, sounds like the Allies are on the move!. Very much looking forward to all of it to be honest and good news for our Napoleonic collecting brothers in arms too. Now I wonder what British Tank???:wink2:

Thanks for posting

Thats great news for NAP collectors

AND its not BAD NEWS that more are coming, thats GOOD NEWS !!

BUT a 'Gentle Cantor' of new Cavalry is much preferred than a 'Full Scale Gallop' of 2 French Regiments coming our way all at once.

In this way collectors can slowly add the troops they are wanting without having to rush off to the bank for an overdraft, and let the enjoyment of filling the ranks of massed cavalry linger over a long campaign.

BRING ON THE HORSES !!!

[OldDragon]

Aaaaah, but John, a full scale gallop is how the French marshals like to use their cavalry ... Ask Murat, Ney or Kellerman (even if he wasn't born French{sm3}) The cavalry must hit in one tremendous wallop and not in drips ^&grin.

Okay seriously, I understand what you mean but some of us have been ... somewhat deprived, cavalry speaking. {sm4} ^&grin :tongue:

The mention of a Spitfire, Andy was addressing another forum member commenting how we have the wounded RAF pilot being helped along set,yet not a crashed or damaged aircraft to go along with it.

 

[Mitch]

I fully understood that. The comment seems to indicate no downed spit it crashed into the sea but, a brand new version released this week which, stands outdoors ready to go.

Guys, so I'm guessing some more screaming Eagles for Normandy then? And one Brit tank in the works with more to come??? Another Churchill or variant of perhaps??

An updated 1/30th crocodile would be an excellent addition. A few on a shingled beach for a dieppe dio would be superb

Rob[/QUOTE]

Yes Rob...a Churchill variant would be just the ticket!!....and i know which one i would really like to see. The Churchill AVRE with the Petard mortar.....Been hoping for this to be released for a long time now. Maybe...just maybe??.

Thanks for the outlook. Looks like a lot of great releases to spoil us all in the near future. In particular I'm excited about the British Normandy tank release, U.S. airborne, and Naps.

Also the mention of a PanzerIV. Maybe a long barreled version with side skirts :wink2:

Thats exactly the one I must have to fill the gaping hole in my collection! {sm4}

Well a Comet tank would be very welcome and looking forward to the Spitfire and MG stuff .for me it been a great year collecting kc

Agreed...........I'm still excited about the OMG releases to come. {sm3}
