Being that we Collector's have your Old Original Arnhem British Airborne Sets which was Smaller in Size; we need different Battle Pose's, and we would like to get from K & C, the Following Sets: --- a AEC Daimler Armoured Car,---- a Cromwell Tank, ---a SEXTON (Priest) S.P., ----a Sherman ( Firefly), and -----a 5.5 Inch Field Artillery Gun and Crew, and a --------BOFORS 40MM-Anti-Aircraft Gun and Crew?, and a ----6 Pounder Gun Team? Possible Repaint Same for British 8th Army N. Africa Future sets? Thankyou, K & C!

Good suggestions as usual John.I think it will be all new totally different action poses for this range.The quality is so good now i don't think they will really 'work' next to the old stuff.I too can't wait to see what vehicles we are getting,bound to be a jeep in there somewhere.

Rob,

The old stuff in matt works fine with the new stuff. Just put the new stuff more in the foreground or in the focus areas of the diorama, and the old stuff in the background or less visible locations, and you would never notice the difference unless you picked one up off the display. Plus the second Arnhem release (circa 2000 or 2001) has some excellent figures in very realistic poses (there's a para throwing a malotoff cocktail made from a Heinekin bottle that jumps to mind).

I love the old Arnhem sets and I'm waiting to see how they match up with the new stuff. I noticed that in some of his dio pieces, Kevin has mixed old and new and nobody has complained.

Although John may have excellent suggestions, don't you think Andy will have good offerings? Let's give him a little credit. Also, this constant "we need" gets rather tiring. I was taught that you get more bees with honey than vinegar.

With all respect to John i think Andy must have decided long ago what he's doing.I never know what to say to John about his wish lists,either give it a rest or good suggestions.I tend to go with the latter rather than appear rude!

Like the sound of the malotov chappie.Just can't wait to see the new figures in this series.For me this will be the K&C highlight of 2007.(along with the Crimean)
