Hi Wayne, Well done and congrats on the new old greys as it werewe ol butchers may collect from different companies but once a butcher always a butcher and the blood runs deep lol!!!
...Sammy
Splendid releases Andy and what a nice surprise!{bravo}} Really like the new figures and the 222/Opel will definitely join my German armour at some point. I have the AK 222 and its still one of my favourite of the German AFV releases. Great job!
Congrats Wayne!{bravo}}^&grin
Rob
Your right John very happy.........................{bravo}}
LOL! :wink2:Cool, even I like them....:wink2:{sm3}
Wayne.
Two more photos...
At last, long awaited and plenty of possibilities with these new releases. They can be used in every dio made about WW2 from 1940-1945
they are a must have for every dio maker

Guy...
You are correct but, for those guys (no pun intended) who like their dio's and scenes to be accurate (and for those who don't care an early rivet warning now in force) the guy lugging the MG42 cannot be used for anything battlewise before 1942. so, an MG34 would have been better or, do another to cover both periods!! Now historical accuracy bit over they are still nice sets as I said before

I don't see the grey blitz advertised also. I know we have seen a couple of these repaints by K&C for the KM series so, would expect one for this range sooner rather than later. these early war are really very good and long awaited. They can be used to cover a massive part of the second world war and, look very nice. They can allow with the soviets a decent crack at the eastern campaign right upto kursk. The 222 looks very nice and well painted and, for those who like to mess around with the figures etc it will be easy to change them from Heer to Waffen SS I see them as early war western europe Totenkopf myself. Nice pose for Rommel also.
Nothing wrong with camo troops but, these are long awaited and a breath of fresh air. Looks like gearing upto being a good chicago show
Mitch
Oh.... I better get some Greatcoats painted now to match these guys????
They will look great in one of your dioramas... can't wait to see that!!
John
With the latest Dispatches last week many were under the impression it was going to be a slow month for new releases, then.................. SURPRISE ^&grin
Obviously from the vast positive responses over the last several hours "Grey Germans" are popular and not so much a minority amongst collectors !
If this first release goes well as it appears,some combat poses may follow suit.
Rob:
Maybe I'm not reading things correctly but I don't see anything on the advert that lists the Opel as being available. That 222 looks awesome though dude. I like the skull and crossbones detail on it. Superb work. Don't get me wrong, I hope I am incorrect and a K&C Grey Opel is soon to be released.

I know I said it was a quiet month but, thats too be expected with chicago. Look at last years dispatches rather similar and, then a lot of sneak peeks and releases for the show. expect nothing different this time and, this is a taster of things to come.
Wayne...
Lets get into perspective a blitz would be nice but, we need a hanomag first!!
Mitch
LOL! :wink2:
Looks like I'll be picking up some early war Germans sometime soon. I wonder if Wayne will pick up one or two of these? :tongue:
Fun stuff! Thanks Andy!
Joe
