So, for K&C Normandy Collectors... (1 Viewer)

[Rob]

Who's getting these!. There is something about the Normandy theater and K&C's habit of releasing iconic vehicles and troops from it that make it must have, I never tire of these releases and its a highlight each summer, so who's in?!:smile2:

definately will pass on the .30 gunner as I have enough of those already. Really do like these new guys- they can work for my hedgerow assault or beach landings. I do like that they are going with one figure now.

The Priest- it's pretty alright but not sure it (or the jagdtiger) can pull me off Figarti's Abrams right now. Just picked up another this weekend- my baghdad assault is shock and awesome!! ^&grin

Between the jagdtiger and Priest- I'd take the Priest any day of the week and twice on Sunday.

I think I'm in for the Priest. I can justify the price given the fact that it's an open AFV and the detail/stowage included.
The figures look great and would look good taking cover behind walls in an urban setting.

Smart man- take a moment to think before you buy- a lot of collectors can use that advice. I came to the conclusion that unfortunately everything is getting wildly expensive these days. Cost considerations kept me out of Kriegsmarine, the airplanes, etc and will keep me from the Ancient Greeks too the more I think about it. I considered the Life of Jesus line but nixed it before I bought any. KC is pretty much a one horse town for me and I believe a lot of collectors out there- as are pretty much any company. I cannot afford multiple lines of Figarti so I grabbed what appealed to me- their modern figures. Same with FL- Love the first looks at the Romans but cannot afford their entire catalog. Still enjoy KC WW2 Normandy though. Was fortunate enough to get a lot of pieces back in 2000-03 so just don't have enough room for all of the new stuff which saves me money in the end.

I think this M7 will make for an excellent scene along withK&C's earlier and larger SPG , am going to build a dio around these two.

Re: So, for K&C Normandy Collecotrs...

I have resisted a lot of K&C's recent releases but I think I'm going for the M7. I also like the looks of the various prone figures, but we'll see what the wallet can tolerate.

I don't think my wallet can take it. There are other items I'd like to get especially the upcoming winter 88mm from CS ^&grin.

 

[ImRader]

All of them :smile2:

 

[MCKENNA77]

M-7 is a must for sure. The desert version will be a must have as well. The officer with tommy gun is an awesome looking figure. You can never go wrong with more Gi joe in Normandy.

Keep it silly

 

[MapleLeaf]

Waiting for 8th army version
can't afford both
8th army comes first

Glad you mentioned the M12 Rob. That really is an awesome piece - great detailing, pretty big and coming with 5 figures! It was about £130 as i remember. Sooo glad i got that one.
