Statues of Britains WWII?????? (1 Viewer)

[Lo1863]

Does anyone know anything about their WWII line? Are they planning to keep it going? I would love to see more Germans and Americans in Normandy. I am not sure how recent their previous Normandy releases were.

Hello Lo_1863,

I can say with confidence that Britains is going to be revisiting WWII beyond the current releases in the RAF & Jacktars & Leathernecks ranges. I can't say what or where the focus will be but that it is coming. Please be patient, I do believe it will be worth the wait...

All the Best,
Ericka (wife of the W.Britain GM)

Thanks for the response, Ken! That is great news to hear as I am rethinking my collecting focus and which brands I wish to stick with. How recently were the figures from the 101st released? I cannot find a year, but I know most are retired by now. The ones on this page... http://www.wbritain.com/products.cfm?catID=3958

Ken, while we have your ear, you talked about doing WW1 German trenches at OTSN, how is that coming?

Thanks for remembering,
We have a complete German trench system patterned, but there are several items in production ahead of this release. I think many of you will like what we will be revealing before the year is out. I have spent a fair amount of time out in the field measuring and photographing surviving equipment in collections.
Obviously WWI is finally getting the attention it deserves. I love the releases by John Jenkins and 1st Legion to date... It is a great time for collectors!

WWII is coming along, but I would prefer to have a release in depth rather that a few odds and ends as we have for the past few years.
I may be returning to Europe for more research toward the end of the year. Never enough information eh?
All the best,
Ken
