Looking forward to the next releases as the newest ones wetre superb!

Would be brilliant to see one of the modified morris trucks!

The amount of personality relases has been great, not just the well known ones, but the lesser known too!

Think it would be interesting to see a model of a german soldier with a British airborne mapcase in his hand looking through the maps and a dead para at his feet.

I know it isn't really K&C's style but I think it would be good to see a release of diaguarded supplies and equipment etc!

The new Jeep looks good too .The new figures for this range look very good to me indeed, will start adding these in London along with a WW1 Tank, UXB Truck and FINALLY I'll get started on Commandos.

How about SS-Hauptsturmfuhrer Viktor Graebner in a British Humber scout car leading the charge across the bridge?

From all accounts a very courageous and noble woman who with her five children stayed throughout the whole defence of Oosterbeek. Upwards of three hundred casualties passed through her doors. A figure of such a heroine would not go a miss.

I LOVE those ideas, but for the sake of accuracy...it would be Paratroopers of the 504th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 82nd Airborne Division crossing the Waal at Nijmegen.

(Sorry, as alumni of that Regiment, I had to...)

...And while we're on the subject of personalities, how about Lord Carrington and Colonel Tucker "discussing" the merits of pushing on to Arnhem.


ATW!

Sorry, as an English Major, I had to....😈

"If you're a male, you're an alumnus. If there are a bunch of guys together, you're alumni. If you're female, you're alumna. A group of females is called alumnae. However, if a group is made up of men and women, you're alumni again. That is why you see "alumni" most often; it can be gender neutral.

Are you following all of this? Alumnus, alumna, alumnae, alumni, all comes from the Latin words "alumnus" which means foster child and "alere," which means to nourish."

I wasn't aware there was a different rule for women. Thanks for pointing that out.

You're welcome Brad.

I didn't mean to, actually. My issue was the plural/singular. But hey, I guess we all learned something -- me included.

Right On! I stand corrected!
 
We are starting to see some recycling of content in this series but that's OK because a lot of newcomers need to play catchup as old releases are long retired. As a longtime collector of the OMG series I'm biased and would like to see some new things like a paratrooper tending to an air dropped canister, Vickers MG, medical jeep, etc. Ultimately I just want to see the series continue as it still is my absolute favourite (despite being a little "P'd" off{sm3}).
