Is the airman being helped by the soldier RAF or Luftwaffe?
IMO, the figure appears to be Luftwaffe. There is an eagle on the right breast of the jacket and there are what appears to be yellow collar tabs. -- AlIs the airman being helped by the soldier RAF or Luftwaffe?
Close up of the truck....
Excellent shot mate, thanks very much. Yep , this will be Tilly No4 !^&cool

Rob,
These would all look great mate maybe on a small country lane passing by the 1940's airfield diorama we spoke about, Fritz under arrest further down the road!
Chris
Nice idea Chris, I like the country lane element.There is something about the atmosphere of that 1940 Summer that is very attractive (if only I had a time machine!^&grin). I really like the fact we are getting what looks like two new Policemen for ths range, I think these will be pretty versatile for several different dio's. I have been hoping Andy would make more (shall we call them) 'Home Front' figures and these are spot on, lets hope they are the first of many Chris:wink2:
Rob
Oh I agree, I would find myself playing cricket in a hazy English field with the pilots before take-off! I think 'Home Front' is a great title for them. Another bobby or two can't hurt, maybe Fritz is getting a little 'mouthy' upon detention and back-up has been called for!
Chris
^&grin
A couple of whacks with a truncheon in the back of the Tilly should sort that out Chris...welcome to England Fritz!^&grin
How about the farmer from the Battle of Britain who greets the Polish Pilot with ' Get your hands up you Bosch B*******' !
Rob
Two figures..........
The more I look at the guard figure and the set of Tommy helping wounded Nazi Pilot, the more it looks like these were made to go with a downed Luftwaffe aircraft.
Rob
I agree Mitch, compared to the older ranges the RAF range is very new , yet it has got better and better and is fast looking like one of the very best K&C produce. Whenever I go to the London shows there doesn't seem to be that many companies who produce RAF figures, and none with anywhere near the scope and depth K&C do. Figures, vehicles, buildings and aircraft its all there, flagship range I say.{bravo}}
