This will be a good addition to my collection. I can't wait to see what will be release next month that corresponds with these sets. Already my chicago bill is around $1300!

Not many manufacturers would look at alternate PAK versions, I suppose its easier or, safer to stick with the usual format. Bought CC PAK but, although the gun was quality I did not really like the figures (could scare you everytime I put my study light on) at least with K&C you know the figures are top notch.

I really do like these mix matches that the germans used to do with captured artillery/tanks etc. This looks to be a excellent set and, for a gun and three figures quite well priced.

What a terrific piece, a true release for the avid collector. Any German anti-tank gun is long, long overdue! This is just another example of an obscure piece that nobody has done to my knowledge before. Kudos to K&C for their love of history and their desire to please us amateur historians by sometimes taking us down paths we possibly didn't even know about! I'm sure it would have been easier ( maybe a better seller ) to do an 88mm, or a 75mm, 50mm etc but to do this French/German combo is really cool. K&C balances their releases so well. For example they release Tigers and Panthers to please mainstream and newer collectors and they release obscure, rarely seen pieces to please the "got it all" types and collectors that have been in the game awhile and have 10 Tigers! Anybody who says K&C is boring and safe needs to think again, I believe their success allows them to do fun and creative releases that we all benefit by. If it were only for the buck then all we'd ever see is Tigers vs Shermans. I think we need to remember that before we take shots at them.

I think K&C have always, obviously, wanted to make money but, just had fun releasing what they want and when they want.

Thats why, for me, other manufacturers (apart from those just starting out) have to constantly release their products in Limited editions. Just do not think there will ever be another company which will be as succesful or as big as K&C.

As for those who take a pop just cannot see the point. You are, if patient, going to get either the set you crave or, a set which, is even better than what was initially wanted.

There have been numerous requests for Panzer Grey AFV's (and 88mm Guns).....Why does K/C not release more of this??....Then costly re-paints would not be necessary....Also AFV's with different turret numbers would be most welcome for those folks who want to set up "tank battle scenes"....It seems that these would sell well....Maybe I'm wrong????.....I have therefore shifted my collection towards other manufacturers who are filling the void.....Just my View on this.....

The fields of battle series seems to me to be the perfect outlet for the Grey painted vehicles from the blitzkreig era. I know collectors who only collect grey german stuff and, I have painted a lot of stuff for collectors.

Just a inquiry everyone keeps saying how costly repaints are what do they cost in the US?
