[Gunn Miniatures]

​

Welcome to the latest Jump The Gunn Newsletter. Time or tide as they say stops for no one and this year has flown by. We have had a busy 2025, with a bumper crop of vehicles and artillery pieces, and we have not finished yet. There will be a further 2 more figure releases in 2025, then January 2026 will see us taking a break.

These new releases will be ready for dispatch from our HQ the week beginning October 6th 2025, let's start off with the Romans........

Roman Auxiliary Archers

Following the release of the Praetorian archers earlier this year, we were asked by a number of collectors and dealers about whether or not we were going to release some roman auxiliary archers. We always had plans to do so in 2026, but after these requests we decided to release them earlier than planned.
These new archers are in two figure boxes and are available in 4 different poses.

WW2 Germans
6th SS Gebirgsjager

Its been a while since we released any German mountain troops, so here are 5 all new soldiers with more reinforcements in the pipeline.

SS181 Officer with pistol
SS182 MG42 Gunner #1
SS183 Sitting Sniper
SS184 Rifleman at the 'Ready'
SS185 MG42 Gunner #2
All the above are priced at $55/£50 whilst stocks last. Due to a communication error at the factory we only have 50 x 'A' late war version with a brown earth base and 50 x 'B' with winter snow style bases, so probably best not to hang around ordering these if they are of interest.

This release are men from the 6th SS and all our figures have the unit logo adorning their right arm, here is their story:
The 6th SS Mountain Division was formed in February 1941 as the SS Battle Group North (SS-Kampfgruppe Nord) in southern Norway before being upgraded and renamed the SS Division Nord in preparation for Operation Barbarossa and holds the unique distinction of being the only German SS unit to have fought in the Artic Circle.

Initially the unit had low combat effectiveness, in the second half of 1941 the division was effectively destroyed by the Russians during Operation Arctic Fox. After taking massive losses in its first operation the Nord Division was entirely rebuilt starting from late 1941. The SS Division Nord remained in Finland and northern Russia, where most of its personnel were replaced over the course of 1942 and 1943. From that point they consisted of combat veterans and graduates of the Waffen-SS Mountain warfare school. With the improvement in its combat capability, the division fought off multiple Russian attacks. It was also renamed again as the 6th SS Mountain Division Nord. After Finland signed an armistice with Russia in 1944. The Nord Division broke through lines of Soviet and Finnish troops in a fighting retreat back to Norway and eventually was stationed in Denmark.

In late 1944 the division was redeployed to the Western Front against the Western Allied invasion of Germany. Following the failure of the Ardennes campaign the 6th SS Mountain Division took part in Operation Nordwind, an attack on the U.S. 7th Army in southeastern France, which held a relatively weak position in the Allied line. On January 1st 1945 the offensive commenced, and the lead elements of the Nord Division, known as Kampfgruppe Schreiber after its commander, took part in the attack. The Nord Division troops the town of Wingen-sur-Moder, but on January 6th 1945, US troops captured towns to the rear and encircled the Nord Division. After Operation Nordwind was called off the Division broke through the Americans lines.




The Division suffered high causalities in the offensive and then fought a series of defensive battles along the Rhine and Moselle rivers. In April 1945, near Büdingen, Germany, its remnants were encircled and were effectively destroyed by U.S. forces. The division formally ceased to exist with Germany's surrender in May 1945.​

French Foreign Legion Update
We are now well into the relaunch of our French Foreign Legion range and we would like to thank all those collectors for supporting this range of figures, we now have no ACCPACK 129A or B version 75mm cannon left in stock.
There will be an FFL mountain gun in 2026 once we get round to releasing some enemy for the FFL which will be mounted and on foot.

Where are the ‘Ladies’, I hear people ask……….
They have been taking a bit of a ‘Nap’, but soon they will be ‘Romin’ around the TG website, we have 5 new female figures from two ranges, to be released very soon.
That’s not all Folks……………………..in early 2026 T Gunn will be releasing figures from one of our older ranges, a range, one from which we have not released anything for quite a while. For those of you old enough to remember 1815 then you will be very happy with what's about to be released.

Also at long last some US armour will be making an appearance in 2026 after what seems like an age to get the factory to agree to make it.

And that is all for this month ladies and gents, thank you for reading our news. All items should be available in the first week of October. All our items are now on our website www.jumpthegunn.co.uk and are available for preorder. Gunn Club members who buy direct from us, just insert 'discount' into the coupon box at checkout and get 10% off your order.

Best wishes The Gunn Team
