Well with a little help from jeremy clarkson.... The famous Loser pose lets have a good old Gloat!!! Just for you Ron.

Mitch, I'm sure Ron won't mind if we have a good old Gloat, he's got a sense of humour!

Reminds me of the ep of Blackadder when Edmund is in charge of executions;

Percy; ' Oh we are up to our necks in gloaters around here, can we come in for a gloat they say, and we say oh you heartless gloaters' !^&grin

Looks good to me Jim, sometimes a display works just as well{bravo}}
 
wow, Talk about a quick response to collector requests ! How's that for Customer Service {bravo}} Very nice indeed !
 
Congratulations to all the Market Garden collectors for their successful campaign and to Andy for listening to their plea! As the bridge, the end of this series now looks too far again!!!{sm4}
 
You muchachos are straight trippin. {sm4}{sm4}

No, there probably wasnt any market research that went into this decision, just the random log in to TF Forum, read a dozen or so repetitive comments from the same Arnhem fans and BAM, Let's revive the line.

You know, because KC has been so terribly responsive to the gazillion and one posts of stukas or grey germans. Clearly that group is a vocal minority so why give them those figures?? No fellas, good bad or indifferent there was some market research as part of this decision, but hey, if your happy believing hes listening then knock yourselves out.

I may have been born at night but it wasnt last night.
 
May have been this also some research into the line and, what they were planning on doing. We don't know how much feedback K&C got to speculate on such matters and, I suppose the collectors of the range won't care too much. to Arnhem collectors they will be only to happy hearing that its still being made.

Well done guys. I'm pleased there is so much enthusiasm for this famous Operation out there. My grandfather was an Arnhem veteran and was written about in a book I've got about the Irish who fought there. The first figure I bought was a single paratrooper in his memory. I reckon I'm going to jump on the bandwagon when the new troops arrive and grab a few more.
 
The point I will be taking away from this whole ground swell for more Arnhem is that while Andy & his team decided to bow to the pressure placed on them from everyone including me, I should learn to be satisfied with what is given instead of relentlessly asking for more. Nevertheless very happy about the fact that MG is still running for a little longer. Well done everyone, cheers, Robin.

CHILL PILL ANYONE?^&grin
 
All I can say is that the "Fighting for the Bridge" thread was started on Saturday, then KC had a high level meeting at the corporate office on Sunday and by Monday we have the line back. Yep yep thats how this went down.......

I'm sorry all those other threads were so ineffective! {sm4}

You are welcome everyone! :rolleyes2:^&cool:rolleyes2:

Thanks and great news!!!!!!! Very excited. I would like to put a plug in for Frost and Hackett. And of course Browning. (even though he wasn't at Arnhem)
 
Don't bother to tell Ron, he was in on the cunning plan, that's what they do in Washington you know :wink2:
