Dear all, we are pleased to preview some of our new SS figures due to make an arrival soon. By all accounts we have something like 10 figures in production, below are pictures of some of them. Please note some of these are pre-production samples and there will be some minor adjustments to the finished products before delivery.

That new Soldier with Panzerfaust will certainly be on my wish list.
Nice pairing of the Sand Bag Emplacement with the sitting figures.

Set up this little scene a while back:

Like WesternOutlaw said, the figure walking with the Panzerfaust is great! I’d be down for even a couple to outfit my SS Patrols… I like the MG-34 and mortar team figures as well!
 
Hi What are the chances of you offer the German releases in two versions, SS and Heer and allow us collectors to chose which one we want? Some may prefer the Heer to having SS figures in there collections even if you consider that they are in theory Waffen SS, they are still SS....

I'm not an expert but doubt any units other the SS used this type of camouflage pattern.
 
Hi Matt,
Agree that the cammo uniforms are SS...what I am referring to, is when was the last time you have seen Heer units being released versus SS Waffen ones.....Regular Heer in the same poses using the same weapons.....

I understand your query/complaint now. Rather than the specific Pea Pattern (Erbsenmuster) camo pattern pictured which was rarely used by NON SS troops, you are refering to the relative lack of Wehrmacht releases compared to Waffen SS. Simple answer would be that Waffen SS Pea Pattern camo figures are more popular with buyers, 'popular' being more aesthetically pleasing rather than the 'political' sense.
