I think I want summer versions of Langy and Rogers.Montcalm for Ticonderoga and some colonial officers for French troops.Not counting the Snowshoes officers I don't think there have been any officers since Breujeu and Dumas.

WW1 planes galore! Give me an albatros, fokker e.v., hanriot(italian markings), spad and a junkers d.i. Thats all!
 
-60th Royal American Regt. for Ticonderoga/Carillon
-BOM mounted G. Washington (red uniform)
-Rangers attacking St. Francis Village battle
-Fort Necessity as a brand new FIW range/series/battle
 
Blake I don't think you will see a new FIW for a long time as Ticonderoga is just starting and St.Francis still has a long way to go.I believe John has said it wants to expand in other periods and is getting burned out on the 18th cen.I believe our beloved FIW period is being bombed and strafed by those WWI planes.:eek::(:D

Really would like a Sudan 3 person team using a 'heliograph', one figure adjusting the instrument, one kneeling taking notes and one standing with binoculars to eyes and a receiving set also, one figure kneeling with binoculars, one standing taking notes and the third manning the instrument. I love a theme within a theme, so here we have the exciting Sudan theme with an interesting vignette happening. Any chance John may do one day? Cheers, Robin.
 
I've seen sets like that in 28mm and they would be some great looking sets in 60mm.

I would like some 4th Foot with their bayonets held to recieve the Highlander's charge. A lot has been made over the years of the new bayonet drill that Cumberland initiated, so it's time to see a few putting it into practice.

I also need a few regular 18th Century Fusiliers from a non-highland foot regt.

I keep thinking I've collected as many Jacobites as I need, then more go on to my list! I'd be happy for that range to continue for ages yet.
 
Sudan - Loads of Fuzzy Wuzzies, Camel Corps and a Gunboat! ;)

Good Morning Everyone!!!

My true desire, it will never happen but it would make me so very happy --- and you asked ------- Montcalm had 18 Indians at Ticonderoga, so 18 new Indian sculptures!!

However, I will settle for the French regulars at Ticonderoga. A swivel gun set would be a far reach, but sweet.

Big Hit: Club Set - George Washington in Red Coat (BoM). Possibly mounted, but as K&C recently retired their mounted George (AWI), unsure .... I have been using Frontline's General Wolfe as a placeholder, but really thinking this is more likely to appear in 2012.

Lower on the List: I have a preference for figures that can do double duty, so some Roger Rangers (RSF and Ticonderoga).

A French Marine Officer --- a standing figure. We only have a single kneeling French Marine officer figure useful in Quebec displays (BoM figure). The Marine Officer is good for Ticonderoga as well. Several other missing elements to the Quebec series - grenadier officer and sergeant for the 47th (unlikely to happen anytime soon), etc.

Its funny, but some of the things you would like to see John Jenkins make (like the Junkers C and D ground attack monoplanes, and a Heliograph team) were made back in the 80's and 90's by another of my favorite manufacturers, Heco Tinplate Models, and are among my favorites pieces in my Heco collection.

Have you given up your dream of a blacksmith shop...:)
 
I'd like to see some command vignettes. A grouping of figures relating to each other featuring the commanding officer for each series. - Such as a mounted figures of the Duke of Cumberland, some staff and one of the the 20 Hanoverian hussars he had with him as bodyguards at Culloden. Or Montcalm conferring with Levi and Bourlamarque behind the earthworks at Carillon/Ticonderoga.

This is a wonderful idea...and please include Chippawa and the Sudan...
 
-Goring's white D.VII

-Royal Écossois w/ Capt. Donald MacDonald

-Some personality figures for Culloden
 
Chippawa...
I would like...
officers for the US artillery crew...(telescope pose...etc...)
a British artillery crew of equal size to the US Army crew...with officers...
Six Nations Indians for the US side ...
Native warriors (Western and Grand Nation) for the British side...
Dragoons...19th Light dragoons for Horton's Charge...

St. Francis...
I had always understood this series to be in 3 parts...
1) the peaceful fort/cabins and whaleboats
2) the peaceful Indian village
3) the attack and escape of St. Francis...
I'm assuming parts 1 and 2 are pretty much finished...but I would still like another set or two of peaceful civilians for the cabins and fort...I rarely get to use my cabins and Ranger huts and would like some new figures for peaceful dioramas...
I would also like...
Rangers attacking St. Francis...
dead/wounded Indian set for the village...
Rangers fleeing St. Francis...
French/Indians chasing and fighting the fleeing Rangers...
a capture vignettes of Rangers...

Culloden Moor...
Dragoons...
Lowlanders...
Royal Ecossois...
artillery crew for British side...
a nice section (2-6" sections) of the Culwhiniac Parks stone wall...

Sudan and Carillion are too early to start asking...

but for Carillion...
I really think we need some dead Highlanders caught up in the abattis...

for Sudan...
I hope we get some large scale officer crews commanding a square...
a couple of sets of wounded/dead Mahdist...

put these on your list John...

I would like them all next month please...:p

Mike,

I'll print this list off and present it to John at the March London show! :p;):D:D

Actually, the idea of officer conference sets for Ticonderoga, British (first) then French, has my "I am up, awake and rational" vote.
