Dear All

A quick note to let you all know that TGM finally took delivery of all our new releases on Friday 13th, there was a small glitch with the shipping agent that delayed us by 3 days. This means everybody's orders will start going out today and the rest of this week, apologies for this but it was totally out of our hands. All clients should get a copy of the shipping label by email so that you can track your shipment as it leaves the depot here.

ATW002 has now all sold out here less than 2 weeks after its release date, thank you all dealers and Gunn Club members who ordered from us. This series seems to be setting something of a precedent with both first releases now sold out here virtually within 2 weeks. OK so the production numbers are lower than our current German figures but overall I have to say I am very pleased with the overall response. Any of you out there who collect this series please let me know what it is exactly that appeals to you? In March there will be 4 more US Paras and I have to say the uniform configuration on these new 82nd AB figures has to be one of my favourite to date! Because of the success of this series I have already authorised another 4 fighting figures for May 2012 to bolster our boys on the ground so far!
Unfortunately because of the success of ATW002 we have had to cut some dealers numbers by 1 or 2 sets as there is simply just not enough to go round. Revised invoices will be going out to dealers today and once again I apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.

To give you a taste of what is to come next month I have attached a picture of one of our 4 Imperial Guard figures being released next month, along with the RHA Rocket Set NAP001 which will finally be here. The Napoleonic series is now really starting to kick off with some British infantry also making an appearance in April to help fight the French.

For you WW2 fans I have attached a picture of our British Para tank riders. The standing figure is holding a Piat whilst his number 2 carries the spare Piat ammo including another round in his back pack! These figures along with others will be available in February and are now on display in our workshop section of the website, which is www.tomgunn.co.uk. Although they are designated as tank riders, the lack of stands mean they will also sit very happily in one of our dinghy sets or inside a building for maximum flexibility.

Once again I hope 2012 finds you all well and I look forward to speaking to you once again on 4th February with the next dispatches.

Kind Regards Tom

Both a must for me, a little worrying knowing these are in short supply, but that just keeps me on my toes. The rocket picture must have accidently exploded, as it has disappeared off the thread. Another exciting month ahead. Cheers, Robin.
 
I think I will pass on these. Maybe I can get caught up on the last few months issues...Ron {sm3}{sm3}
 
I'll be getting all 4 of the Imperial Guardsmen, 2 kneeling ones (green masters) were shown recently on Tom's facebook page, and now a standing loading figure... so one more to go.

Its good to see soldiers in camapign clothing which more refects the standards of the Garde Armee at the end of the Napoleonic Wars. It wasn't all crisp white parade clothing, so thses guys will fit in nicely with the new line infantry recently released by K&C.

Tom indicates that the next NAPs will be British Infantry, I wonder what Regiment? K&C does Coldstream Guards, so maybe Light Infantry to compliment? Maybe Rifles as K&C has done KLG?

All will be revealed in April....

Got my ATW002A and B sets today. Very nicely done and the first TGM set I've come across that is now using laser cut foam. A few (very) quick snapshots of the Normandy version, with apologies for the photo quality.

Ta mate, it is a rather spiffing piece, don't you know.
Just need it mounted on a 5 ton truck and released with a Vietnam series now :)
